Any suggestions? My hands seem to get super cold, fast and I'm looking for anything super warm.
Thanks

i've got a pair of black diamond gloves that are goretex, leather, and have really nice liners. two years ago i spent 60 bucks on a pair and my hands have been great ever since. also, the gloves have amazing durability, barely any wear and tear. look into it, its worth paying a little more for better quality.

I used to have the same problem.  Last year I decided to get some decent mitts though, and It was my best purchase ever.  I got Black Diamond Mercury mitts.  They are a bit bulky, but super warm.  They don't have individual fingers, which is great.  In my opinion, individual fingers in a liner in a mitten is just dumb.  It separates your fingers and spreads the warmth.  With everything together, it stays nice and toasty.  They do have a trigger finger as well, if you ever need it.

Bottom line, go for mitts if you really want warmth.

i'm actually not sure the exact model. i was looking for an identical pair this year and couldnt find it. they are black, leather palm, goretex outside, black diamond logo on the wrist. they have removable liners and a drawstring around the wrist.

I guess, there's a ton of useful information here too. it's just that in between the useful information and discussions there are some incredibly hilarious comments.

get leather mits... and get them a few sizes to big so you can wear a thin park glove or fleece liner underneath them. This is my system and it works, plus if your hands get to hot you can requlate the heat by subtracting layers.
