In Praise of Glo-Mitts

As a man that spends a lot of time outside in all kinds of weather and temps yet still needing to have my finger tips exposed for tying on tackle, shooting or any other task or chore I usually wore fingerless gloves. Well a few years ago I tried glo-mitts for the first time. Well now after lots of testing I must say they are the cat's pajamas. We've had temps in the high teens to low 20s the last couple of weeks with 20 - 40 mph winds. The Glo-mitts have shined. You can put those Grabber chemical hand warmers in the mitt part for when you're good to go in below zero wind chills. Just one of those compromises that works.

I tried them, a couple of pairs, one w/the mitt and and the other just the fingerless one for working on roof top heating units in cold weather.
Didn't work out so well for me.

Still have them, but usually depend on just light cheap jersey gloves with the thumb and first two fingers tips worn out. Bunch of pairs for when they get wet.
The chemical hand warmers in jacket pockets.

I always had a box of the cheap jersey gloves in the truck. I would have a few pair drying out on the dash most of the time. I couldn't work with gloves on so a couple of dozen pair a winter usually worked for me. If I wanted warmth I would put on a pair of surgical gloves(always kept a big box) and then the jersey. Even wet they kept the hands warm. Same with my feet, kept a box of thin plastic bags to slip over my climbing boots and the biggest pair of cheap made in China boots I could find and worked out great. Have stood in freezing water for hrs. without a problem.

LOL, sounds like my truck LOL, I hear ya.
Starts smelling like old socks by spring..............

I suppose if you were out fishing or whatever the Glo-mitts would work, but even when out hunting in bad weather, my shooting hand has a Jersey glove on it, w/hand warmer inside.
Other hand (left) is heavy Chopper mitt, wool liners leather outer.

I've never tried glo-mitts. The best winter gloves I ever used were hot gloves. 4 buckle galoshes over my work boots the warmest foot ware.

Hunter - have you ever tried Jack Pyke fingerless gloves? The military uses them, too.

No, but then again I have been avoiding spending any time on roof tops this winter, if I can help it.

I do have a pair of Mil issue black leather gloves w/wool liners, got from a buddy.
Then work pretty well if just being out and not have to use your finger tips for screws bolts etc.
Four buckle over shoes are still my favorite for snow wet conditions, unless it's super cold, then the pac's come out.

The ones I have are from Cabela's. They have a neoprene palm, polar fleece shell and lining with thinsulate and dry plus linings.

I glad you like them and passed along the info.
I sure they sell alot of them, I bought a couple of pairs......

Gander Mountain sells something that looks like the Glomitts that Cabela's lists. I was going to pick up a pair - after your review, I probably will. Thanks.

Probably should look into other cold weather gear as well, seeing how it's was snowing in Florida.

It's funny - I'm loving the weather, but to hear some talk about it you'd swear it was the coming of another ice age.
