well, i just got some new gloves because my old ones were too cold and guess what... these ones are still very very cold! I went to Wal-Mart and picked up a pair of $10 mittens and they're sooo much warmer than my new gloves! Does anyone have any suggestions for some mittens that will last (from doing grabs and stuff, the wal-mart mittens are ripping apart...) Thanks.

People are so fucking lazy...do you want me to check out EVERY SINGLE GLOVE MANUFACTURER WEBSITE and find you a pair of mitts? Are you that lazy? I've compiled a crappy list of glove makers for all you lazy assholes that can't use a search engine/read a magazine and find the glove ads. Why? Because you won't find an objective product review on NS.com anyways. Here ya go, enjoy:
www.dropmfg.com
www.levelgloves.com
www.dakine.com
www.google.com use the 'search' feature for more.

jib this, he wasnt saying can you guys look up manufacturers and guesse which is best, he asked which ones worked, generally, i guesse he would be asking people who own mitts that work, not people who he wants to search the web, fuck,

thanks a lot for the companies! don't jump to conclusions right away saying that i want you guys to look up 'mittens' on a search engine and tell me all of the sites that come up, i just wanted to know some mittens they you guys have and if they are good or not, company websites are obviously gonna say that they are good anyway...

What the hell gives you the idea that you will get a decent, honest, non-biased product review on a website overrun by punks like me that verbally abuse people over the internet? That being said, I 'apologize' for being a little punk. I have salomon gloves, full goretex with thinsulate lining. They kick the shit out of any glove or mitt I've ever owned, and are super warm. If salomon makes a mitt, get that.

i got a pair of burton tactic golves for 30 bones from my work, and there not bad. I got them a little big for a thin glove/those hot pack thingy. Also, if u want to keep your other gloves for longer, pick up some pipe gloves(dakine,bonfire..) and use those for trix. BUT dont ski back country in em, u will get VERY COLD!

Burton makes killer stuff, I have the Tactic Pinnacle mitt, full Gore-tex, outlast temperature-regulation, and primaloft synthetic down lining... warm as all hell and waterproof too.
