Very warm and durable gloves, which is typical for this brand. Mobility is a bit limited, so they’re not suitable for precise tasks, but unlike all-purpose gloves that only look warm – this model really does its job.
Mechanix Wear ColdWork WindShell Tactical Gloves Black/Grey
Winter, windproof gloves in black and gray, designed for effective protection against cold and adverse weather conditions. Equipped with advanced PrimaLoft Gold insulation, they provide thermal comfort and protect hands from abrasions and cuts.
primaloft gold insulation, fleece and softshell material
The gloves are made with warm fleece, while the back of the hand is covered with an additional softshell material that effectively protects against wind and moisture. The interior is filled with synthetic PrimaLoft insulation, ensuring excellent thermal insulation. The PrimaLoft 40g Gold layer warms the back of the hand, while the working side features PrimaLoft 60g Gold filling, maintaining warmth even in the harshest conditions.
Armortex reinforcements
The working side uses extremely durable Armortex material, which is water-resistant and provides excellent grip. Reinforcements made of this material are also placed on the back of the hand, including the thumb and fingertips, enhancing the durability of the gloves. Additionally, the gloves allow for touchscreen operation.
extended cuffs, Velcro, snap buckle
The gloves feature extended cuffs that effectively block cold air from entering, and a Velcro fastener ensures a precise fit. The model also comes with a snap clasp, enabling the gloves to be clipped together for convenient storage and transport.

Quality in line with Mechanix standards. The gloves are carefully made from high-quality materials. Choosing the right size gives a secure grip. 100 g of good insulation provides warmth, and the outer material protects against moisture. Recommended.
-
The gloves seem extremely durable, but in exchange they’re very stiff. Ideal for working with a shovel or snow pusher, but become uncomfortable with more delicate tools. They work well at -10°C during intensive activity, but at -4°C on a scooter, after just 10 minutes, your hands start to feel cold. My older sports gloves provide better insulation.
-
The gloves aren't all that warm if you’re not moving your hands – after a one-hour walk with the dog, the fingertips started to get cold. In my opinion, they work up to -2/-3°C, but below that, without hand movement, your fingers get cold. The inside isn't very durable; after a few uses, a hole appeared at the Velcro fastening. On the plus side, the touchscreen function works and the outside is durable – a leash didn’t damage the material, while other gloves I had would start to wear at that spot.
-
Mechanix Wear ColdWork WindShell are great winter gloves – they keep you warm, protect from the wind, and grip remains precise. Ideal for tough conditions – the warmest I’ve ever owned.
-
The gloves are very well made, very warm, and provide good protection against rain and wind. Unfortunately, it's hard to do precise tasks with them – opening an underarm zipper or getting something out of a pocket can be frustrating or even impossible. They work with touchscreens, but only for basic use (like answering a call); typing a text is unrealistic. However, I was looking for protection against cold and moisture, so I’m fully satisfied – I accepted the limitations, but it’s worth knowing them before purchase.
-
The gloves are of super high quality, durable and very warm. They perform well even during hard work, they are almost impossible to wear out. I recommend both the product and the store.
-
Classic Mechanix quality – the gloves are solid, carefully made from good materials. Once you choose the right size, they fit your hand well. 100 g of insulation keeps in the heat very well, and the outer layer protects from moisture.
-
The gloves are quite stiff and choosing the right size can be difficult – it seems they don’t reach the tips of the fingers. However, they are resistant to cold and work well for skiing. I recommend both the gloves and the store!
-
Very well made – I’ve been using them for a third season and never felt cold in them. Even when wet they didn’t get soaked. They do restrict movement a bit, but you get used to it.
-
Size S turned out to be a bit too loose for a petite woman’s hand, but it’s not a big problem. Unfortunately, hands get cold already at -5°C, especially during dog walks. The gloves are rather stiff.
-
The gloves are good, although I followed another review and chose XL instead of L, which wasn’t necessary. I believe that for effective protection from the cold, they must fit closely to your hand and fingers. At first, they seem stiff, but you quickly get used to it. I recommend ordering two sizes to compare them.
-
I just received these gloves and they really are very warm, as other users wrote. The quality is again impressive. This is already my third pair from this brand. I highly recommend them.
-
The first impression is very good – the materials and workmanship are at a very high level. The gloves are a bit stiff, but this is not a problem in use or while cycling. I’m curious to see how they will perform over a longer period of time.
-
Solid gloves, they work great while cycling in subzero temperatures. A bit stiff, but it's still convenient to change gears and use the brakes. The large opening makes it easy to put over the sleeve of a jacket, and the ability to use touchscreens is very practical.
