Wintertime is more than just sunny powder days. Its chopping wood in a blizzard, its shoveling the driveway on a sub-zero morning, its playing fetch with the stir-crazy dog during a break in the storm. This rugged, Omni-Heat-armed fleece glove is the perfect partner in crime for all of the above. Made from soft tricot, the thermal reflective lining expertly retains body heat while wicking moisture and breathing. Plus, Omni-Shield advanced repellency keeps your hands dry and cozy during wet weather. The PU palm provides a grippy holding surface and great dexterity, while the abrasion overlay on the knuckle protects and reinforces.

Watch out for Sizing
Great glove for daily use but be careful if you have small hands. S/M fits like a M/L. Quality of glove is what you would expect from Columbia...excellent.
Awesome gloves
These gloves are great. They're not bulky, have grips on the fingertips, and nylon taslan on the fingers to cut down on wind. Great for what they are, fleece gloves. they're not ski gloves, and are definitely not waterproof or windproof. Very warm when kept dry, and very agile, not clumsy. Would buy again. Make sure you know what you're buying, these aren't ski gloves at all.
Warm and Grippy
I decided to try these gloves because of the new Omni-Heat feature as my hands are usually cold. I did find that these are warmer than my regular fleece gloves. I drove around for a few days with one glove on each hand to see if the Omni-Heat really works, and it does! That being said, I found that the real highlight of these gloves is the material on the palm. It is very "grippy", perfect for driving. I have had a number of pairs of fleece gloves that have been used mainly for driving and have never really found a pair that I thought had really good grip. Some were a little better than others but these Columbia Thermo Fleece gloves had the best grip yet. The only potential thing that some people might dislike is that the Omni-Heat material on the inside (with the little silver dots) feels a little strange, sort of a sticky, rubbery feel. I wouldn't say this is a con, just something to be aware of when deciding on a pair of gloves as most people expect a fleece glove to be soft and fleecy on the inside, and these are not. I can't comment on the durability as I haven't had them very long.
great glove/very warm and light weight
great glove/warm/well constructed/not too heavy/great looking/would recommend to all. great for all kinds of weather and coditions/ snug around wrist so no cold air or rain can get to yor hands or prevent you from doing your thing.
They're ok, they run big, but...
I wanted gloves to replace my cheap mittens that were as warm and that my hands would not sweat in. Need something warm to drive to work in and not worried about waterproof. I wear a size 7 glove and these s/m were the smallest I saw in this product line. The fingers were at least 1 cm too long. I wore one of my mittens on one hand and the new glove on the other and my cheap old mitten kept my fingers warmer. At least my hands didn't get sweaty...
