Be aware of the waterproof area
I bought these gloves as I wanted something waterproof. Their website makes a big thing about their guaranteed waterproofness and I'd bought other products from SealSkinz before, so hoped they'd be good.The gloves fit me very well. They are snug without being too tight.I can easily use the touch screen on my mobile which makes a big difference (not having to take them off each time).They are not very warm. They are three season so don't expect too much insulation.The one thing they don't mention is that the waterproof area only goes as far as the Velcro strap. The whole elasticated part is not waterproof. I found this out to my cast when both my gloves got totally soaked on a few hour's walk in heavy rain.The problem is that the glove cuffs are not very long and there isn't much cover from my coat cuff, thereby revealing a small but significant portion of non-waterproof glove to cause them to leak.I think this is a design blunder. The only way round it is to wear a coat with cuffs that extend further than is comfortable or practical just to cover the glove cuff area.Unfortunately, give the premium price of these gloves, I can't recommend them.
