1.0 out of 5 stars. Cold, Snug, not-so-water proofVerified Buyer Reviewed by Ro the Rider from Seattle on Friday, January 9, 2015Not Warm : Wore these to a skiing trip last week -- @~ 20-25°F -- and while on the lift, I could feel the cold draft going inside the hands.. However, while actively skiing, I can feel a bit of warmth.
Snug Sizing : these are very snug. I am a typical medium, and usually can accommodate a liner inside my gloves. However, with these, I could not put on lines. There just wasn't enough space in the glove.
These may be water proof, but after about a 2 to 3 hours in the snow (while skiing), I could wring out water from these. Even though the water did not reach inside the glove, I still absorbs a lot of it.
Cuffs are neither big enough to go over the jacket, nor are they thin enough to go under the jacket. They just make a bug bulk if you try to wear them under the jacket...
I ended up returning mine :(

5.0 out of 5 stars. Excellent GlovesVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from Tokyo on Wednesday, October 22, 2014The workmanship on these Swix gloves is very high quality, the fit and comfort are terrific and while ski season is a little way off yet they seem like they will provide ample warmth. I'm pleased to have gotten these at such a good price.

1.0 out of 5 stars. Totally not waterproofReviewed by Shih-Chieh from San Jose on Tuesday, February 11, 2014If you are looking for waterproof gloves, this is definitely not one of them. I used them in a snow storm day. After about 1 hour, I could wring out more than 200cc water from them.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Nice formReviewed by Anonymous from Ontario on Wednesday, November 13, 2013Like the pre-curved fit, quality top notch, finger length just right for my slightly short digits. I bought the XL thankfully, since the finished size is halfway between L and XL. I bought Spyder gloves in the past, their XL is definitely bigger than Swix.

3.0 out of 5 stars. Good for its price. Not very warm though.Reviewed by Andrew Min from Delaware on Monday, October 21, 2013Pros : small pocket is very useful and construction quality is good.
Cons : being pretty thick gloves, not as warm as I expected. and the movement of fingers is restricted by its thickness.
overall, it`s average.
