I work For the cable company and im working outside most of my day. I have worked in the snow with these and have kept my hands warm for several hours. But because they are not water proof the water that had melted from the snow got thru and the gloves weren't as effective at keeping me warm. But that's a mistake on my end.
Also should note when my hands did get wet the inside of the gloves have some kind of residue and makes your hands sticky while wearing them and even a bit of moisture gets in. So make sure to wash them before hand
I work outdoors and every winter my hands take a beating from the element. Cold hands, followed by dry skin! That being said it doesn't get super cold down here. The coldest it has been so far is about 30 degrees. These gloves do a fairly good job at keeping my hands from freezing while maintaining the flexibility and dexterity they need for my job duties. I can't confirm whether or not they are water proof or resistant since I haven't used them in wet conditions, they don't state that they are, so I assume they aren't.
One thing I noticed is that the thumb, index and middle finger tips of the gloves look like they have the material used in gloves that allow you to use touch screen devices.
Pros - Warm, flexible, made of tough materials. Seems they will last me through the winter
Cons - the cuffs on the gloves don't entirely cover my wrists. Could be because i have fairly large hands, so take that with a grain of salt.
The fit is excellent, they're warm down to about 30F if you're using your hands and they are well built. The one issue I have is with how short and looses the cuff is. I'm not sue why they didn't have a velcro enclosure like so many of their models but there's plenty of times where I have to pull off the glove to get stuff out that's fallen in. Still, these are my go to cold weather work gloves and they're a great buy.
Good winter work gloves. Not too much dexterity so if you need to use these on projects where you would need finger like dexterity you may need to remove them to be able to do the job. Despite this the insulation is superb and keeps hands quite warm in cold conditions. I've used them in 30° F in windy conditions on the water and they kept my hands relatively warm for a while before the cold crept in.
I get my son a pair of these every year for Christmas. He is an electrician and works in very cold climates. He says these gloves have saved him on many cold days and the fit is easy to work in.

These are my boyfriends favorite working gloves , he’s a commercial roofer so it help keep him warm on the bad days while being able to have good grip on everything !
Great,comfortable, actually grips very well. Warm in the cold. Not waterproof. Used outside for about the last month. Seems to be holding up
Work outside in the Midwest close to Lake Michigan. Come January, February, that will be the ultimate test for these gloves. For an unseasonably cold November these gloves handle the low 30’s very well. Not the best when I need to work with small tools or manipulate small wires, but when I am running with my big tools they keep the chill out very well. My hands are cold, but not numb like years past without them.
These are decent gloves, but depending on how you use them. They say winter, and good for construction. Well, that I would say would have to depend on your location and type of work. These are more of a general use type of glove. They are not high end, and high durability, like you would want doing brick work.. These are good fro gardening, maybe using a hammer, or putting up siding. That type of thing. ripping down walls, hauling large pieces of concrete, etc.. are not the best use for these gloves.
As for cold. I would say that they are probably good down to about freezing temperatures.. Not much below that. In other words, 30's and high.
The feel to my pair were comfortable. They were not really rigid or hard, nor rough. Just a decent feel to them, and a nice comfortable fit. There is not a ton of padding either, so do not expect a lot of protection from hits or abuse. You punch the wall, you are going to feel it. That kind of protection. Overall, they are a decent glove, if used right. Just remember, these are more of a general use type of glove.
I have giant hands, and these fit great. Haven't washed them or anything yet, but so far so good. Would buy again.
