Since moving to AK 9 years ago I've accumulated many many pairs of gloves and mitts. I lost count... I'm probably somewhere between 30 and 40 pairs. I'm still looking for the perfect glove, and might actually find one if I were willing to spend the big bucks. But I won't spend the big bucks unless I have a good sense that they would work. It is a catch 22 for me. Even with hand warmers my hands freeze when I'm skiing. But then, I'm usually downhill skiing in sub-zero temperatures.

I've also found that any glove that gives me enough dexterity to do things like hold a retractable dog leash, clean snow off my car, etc. are not thick enough to insulate my fingers from the cold, and my hands get very cold and numb very quickly. I'm afraid I'm absolutely no help at all, LOL.
