Great gloves. I work as a forklift driver in a refrigerated warehouse. These gloves keep my hands fairly warm in -10° for up to two hours. At -20° they keep my hands warm for about half an hour. Very durable and easy to use the forklift controls with these gloves.
I work at costco Freezers and i like this gloves ..
sometimes i had to do some driving for little longer periods and my hands Obviously get cold but once your moving stocking it keeps your hands really warm .. and i'm talking about -10 degrees below .. i would say yes its worth the $55
Best gloves for working in freezer! After 20years working in freezers, I have used many different brands of gloves without a doubt these are the best. Keeps you warm and gloves are soft with lots of flexibility
My husband works in a -20 degree freezer for hours and his fingers tips were going numb despite the hand gear provided. He gave these a try and absolutely loved them! The other employees are thinking of getting some too!
100grams of thinsulate, awesome grip, and sewed in rubber hand guards. Fits nicely. I have large but kinda skin hands and size large was good for me. Great for winter, or anytime you need to protect your hands from the cold. Stiff when new, they will loosen up. They look like boxing gloves on, well not ridiculous, just a little bigger than normal gloves .

Run just a bit on the small size but earlier reviews mentioned that so I ordered 1 size larger and they fit perfectly. Have had them about 2 weeks. My hands have yet to get cold shoveling snow or out for winter walks. Temps have been in the teens to upper twenties so no below zero cold yet. I do have confidence based on other gloves I have worn that these will be fine at those temps.
They work great. The keep my hands warm at work in the freezer. I just use a thin liner under them and in good to go. I don't like that they are so big and bulky, it's hard to put my finger strap around my finger in these so I can work, but when it's finally on, it's good. Also, the grip wore down a little fast, but it's still there.
Definitely kept my hands warm, just couldn’t utilize them for what I do because I couldn’t feel the buttons on my forklift with them. Wish I could’ve because they were nice, had to return them though due to that. But would recommend if you aren’t trying to use equipment!
Thanks so much I'm am very impressed by these gloves I work in a cold room and my first time I wore the gloves I had to work in the cold room for 45min and I didnt feel any cold what so ever my hand was still warm my buddy asked me were I get them from and I told him. these are the best gloves i owned worth every penny.Thanks so much I'm Happy customer
I have used these for over a week now, and they work excellent in my work freezers, which are -10 with stints in our -40 blast freeze, all just driving fork. A few things to note however, first, I am a healthy non smoker with good circulation, this makes finding a warm enough for me then a lot of my co workers with smoking/diabetes/missing fingers or any other various things that harm that. Two, I use generic silk liners inside of these and while they are not really necessary for anything up to and hour in the -40 blast and longer stints in the -10 they make a huge difference.
They are bulker then I imagined from the online pictures, however after I broke them in a bit they are more then flexible enough and tactile enough for me to feel all my fork controls. I can not stress enough how it took a few hours of wear for me to get comfortable with that though, and it was well worth toughing that out.
I haven't had them for long, but they do feel very durable, more so then most other brands i have used. My one downside is they are not gauntlet style, so if you use a jacket with just a standard cuffed arm like most Carhartts you sometimes get a opening just big enough for wind or cold to get in between them. I make do just fine by pulling on them when I feel the cold, but honestly it can be a pain, and my next jacket will have the loose over cuffs.
Overall, good glove, if you work in a freezer forking they are great, for the price I would worry about replacing them due to damage if you're a stocker or case thrower, but for me gloves last more then long enough, and are important enough to justify this price, and hopefully this will last even longer then the others.
