so my friend is convinced that mittens are better.

I say they look like something that a gaper would wear.


thoughts?

I have really bad circulation in my hands so I would rather look like a gaper to some people and still be able to feel my fingers after 5 minutes

mittens are warmer, great for east coast nights, but gloves in the spring and for pipe and park, cause they are alot easier to grab with and cooler for when your hiking.

that man knows what it s all about.

mittens for cold.
plus they dont get wet when you carry your ski and hike.

for spring and summer just get some pipe gloves. all thin, easy to grab, looks good.


btw candide wears mitten. and believe me he does not look like a gaper.

Mittens are warmer But I find there harder to grab w/ so I wear a pair of grenade rouge status spring gloves when Im riding and mittens over them when Im on the chair. Unless you o no poles then only mittens will work but w// poles I think its harder to grab
