Aretec Glove
Great glove. Worth the money. I like the removable liner.Lets you regulate temp.If your hand is larger than a 8, buy the large.With liner it can run snug.

high quality glove
These are great gloves with removable liners. The liners are nice but I prefer the smartwool liners. They feel a little tight in width for XL's but are plenty long. When I use without liners they fit me like a glove. LOL.....

Great Gloves
I replaced a pair of Marmots with these...they're way better. The fleece liners almost make your hands hot at times, and are easily removable. I acutally roll with a pair of Pl 150's underneath rather than the fleece ones provided. The soft "nose" wipe feature is pretty nice, the wrist cords work easily, and the palms have great grip.

I bought these gloves for Ice Climbing and am very happy with them thus far. The fit is a little bit tight for me with the liners on but I definitely prefer tighter fit versus a loose one. The gloves seem really well made and I think the palms will hold up nicely.

seems like quality
Seems like a quality glove right out of the package. I had to return them because they are made for short fingers. I typicaally wear a large and have skinny fingers and these were too snug and short. I would order a size up.
