A lobster doesnt have three pincers.

Ive never understood this concept of 1 finger mitt/glove. I guess it would be good for rock-paper-scissors..

mittens, so much warmer especially if they are the non-separated finger type

Agreed. I feel like they must me made specifically for pointing at people, letting them know you're number 1, and firing finger guns/actual guns

Mittens are much warmer imo, and I think they look cooler as well. They are obviously less functional than gloves without the finger separation, but whatever. I'll take a nice pair of mittens over a nice pair of gloves any day.

It sounds like you've never actually used Kincos. For $12 I have been toasty and happy in sub-zero temps. There's a reason lifties, patrollers, and snowmakers all over the country use them.

The only problem I've had with Kincos is that they're really fucking stiff and I can't really hold my poles as well when I use them. They're warm but damn they are stiff.

Mittens for me.
