I chose this product mainly because of the brand. At first, I felt the size was one too small. So far, they have worked well when scraping frozen car windows. I also miss a larger and sturdier loop for attaching a carabiner.

I don’t understand the popularity of Mechanix gloves. I’ve tested many models and almost always the thumb was too big. These gloves are so stiff, as if coated in concrete. I opted for the 5.11 Competition Primaloft Insulated tactical gloves instead, and they’re much better. Mechanix makes durable gloves, but their sizing and practicality leave much to be desired.

Very warm and thick gloves, perfect for frosty weather – another successful Mechanix glove purchase. They have a comfortable, soft cuff that is easy to tuck under a jacket sleeve. Splash-resistant, although not fully waterproof. Highly recommended!

At -10 degrees in dry conditions, the gloves performed great. I haven't had a chance to test their water resistance. They are very warm, but you need to choose the size carefully – for me it differed from Mechanix's summer models (from M to XL).

The gloves seem solid, but for me they turned out to be too thick and too tight. Size XXL, yet it was still difficult to get my hand in. I advise trying them on in a brick-and-mortar shop before buying.

The gloves are well made, nicely stitched and thoughtfully designed. They have a defined cold resistance rating – that's important information. For me, they work in frost down to -15 degrees even during long hikes and don’t get soaked. I like the cuff over a wide ending, but that's a matter of taste. The downside is an incorrect website description regarding touchscreen capability – it doesn't work in these gloves. They are quite thick, so not suitable for highly precise tasks.

Very warm and thick gloves, perfect for frost. Another great pair from Mechanix. They have a comfortable, soft cuff that is easy to tuck under a jacket sleeve. They are splash-resistant, but not fully waterproof. I am very happy with the purchase and recommend them.

Unfortunately, they’re not suitable for frosty days. At -5 degrees, your hands get cold after just 10 minutes, and at -1 degree after twenty. Old, marketplace gloves have similar insulation.

These are my first gloves that are so warm. The thick filling may make gripping a bit difficult, but at -5 degrees and in wind my hands were well protected from the cold.

Very warm, excellent during severe frosts. They don't get soaked.

Great gloves – very comfortable and warm. Unfortunately, they’re not suitable for snow as they get soaked, but apart from that they’re excellent.

This is a very good brand—I already have two pairs in heavy use and they work great. This time I bought them for my son – so far he’s very satisfied, they’re very warm and well-designed. I recommend them.

Exceptionally warm, perfect for frosty weather.

Warm, lightweight, and carefully made.

Solid and warm gloves, they have a practical cuff instead of a Velcro. I recommend them.
