Gloves?

Best gloves for warmth are actually mittens. If you can keep your fingers touching each other, your body will help provide warmth. Gloves with separate fingers do a less efficient job of keeping your fingers warm.
Go to your nearest Arctic Cat Dealer. I bought a pair of gloves, I think they are neoprene that are absolutely crazy warm. I went snowmobiling saturday and my hands were actually getting hot. I think they were $40 which I don't see as ridiculous for something of the quality they seem to be.
Yep, I would agree fully with that. I actually use something like these (but for women) - they're a convertible glove/mitten with Thinsulate:
Men's Glommet - Khaki : Target
Especially the ones that lock at the wrists...no chance to even fight back. :biglaugh:
As long as they arent idiot mittens at least they cant pull on one hand and make you slap yourself in the face with the other... (I looked for a youtube of Cosby but came up short, sorry)
If you are convinced into getting mittens I would probably suggest getting something like this so you don't lose them while you're waiting for the bus or outside at recess. Everyone needs mitten clips.
Yarn that goes through both sleeves is SO much cheaper.
If you are that obsessed with appearance over comfort, then you still have some growing up to do. I can understand not wanting to be the kid with mittens in grade school, but beyond that go for the comfort.

I just have some gloves with Thinsulate, and I really like them. They have some nice grip that makes them handy for driving, at least until the heat is warmed up enough in the car.
Mittens are great. I recommend some with a vent/handwarmer zippered pocket. I have a pair of Burtons like that which are awesome.

Why don't people just do what I do... Stay Inside!!!
To help the OP, I've worn just cheap 15 dollar wool gloves and they've been great for just walking outside for a short period or driving a car. For shoveling snow etc. I wouldn't recommend though.
