Winter glove recommendations

My work is as a desk jokey so feel free to ignore this.

I use the deerskin gloves from Murdochs for most outside work, including car work a week ago when it was 20. Seem to keep my fingers from becoming stiff from the cold. Not sure how much extra dexterity you need.

If you need bare finger dexterity I would start with the nylon/polyester type gloves, then get some lined gloves and cut off a few fingers from the lined gloves.
Just a thin layer of protection will prevent the nasty cold suckout and stiff fingers.

Also, I see that there is disposable liner gloves in cotton at wallmart website. There are some disposable liners in nylon geared for clean room use. These will shred over time but may last a few hours for the job at hand.

Off to the despot before I head back up this morning will see what they have for fingerless

Dude keep your core warmer and hands and feet will stay warmer put on a thing puffy under your outer layer.

I work outside and have had the same issues. I use these-

Christies Sports carries them.

A good fingerless ragg wool glove in combination with a synthetic or merino wool liner glove is good for active work in winter. It's what I use for cross country skiing, hunting, splitting wood, etc. These will keep you warm when wet, and you can carry spare dry liner gloves in a pocket. A good outdoors store will carry them.

That doesn't work when you're handling metal that's cold

. The principles of staying warm don't change. You need gloves thin gloves. Plus a very warm core so your body sends more blood to your fingers.

When I need the dexterity, I grit my teeth and wear Mechanix gloves. They keep the wind off, take some of the chill out of bare metal, and will keep the frostbite at bay for an hour. However, they have next to no water resistance, so they are worthless when wet. I wear over-mittens when I am standing around and don't need the dexterity. I wear different gloves entirely when it is wet, and accept that I probably won't be doing much dexterity work in very wet and cold conditions.
