Description of Outdoor Research Latitude Mitten:
Outdoor Research designed the waterproof Latitude Mitts for alpine climbs where weight, versatility, and weather protection are paramount. The fully seam-taped, ultralight Gore-Tex PacLite shell provides complete protection against any snow and ice you encounter in the mountains. Wear the Latitude Mitts with their included softshell liner gloves for extra warmth on non-technical pitches. Stash the outer shells in your pack, and wear the liner gloves alone when you encounter a few rope lengths of steep ice and mixed climbing.

Bottom Line: Take on steep winter terrain with the warmth and versatility of the Outdoor Research Latitude Mitts.

truly waterproof   04-24-07
dnr (7): rank
I got these after soaking a pair of "waterproof" gloves in a day of skiing in wet snow. These are the real thing: a simple gore-tex mitten shell, seam-sealed, with a cinch around the wrist and forearm. The shell will definitely keep rain and snow out. Under the shell, you can wear whatever you want, depending on the conditions, including nothing at all if it's warm enough. The palms have some sort of grippy coating, and I've been impressed by how much dexterity I have without taking the shells off. These do come with inner gloves, but I found the included gloves a little lacking in insulation, and not the most comfortable, so I usually wear a pair of plain fleece gloves under the shells.

Decent mitts lacking some finesse   03-29-07
Endre (4): rank
The Latitude mitts work ok, but are not as good as the mitts they replaced in my gear stash. The shortcomings include cuffs that are a bit too short and no buttery-soft snot wiping fabric on the upper thumb. On the positive side, the cinching system works great, and the mitts seem to be solidly constructed. Also, the mitts run a bit small, so you may want to consider ordering a size larger than you normally would. I can't comment on the included fleece gloves, as I haven't used them.

Good mitts   02-20-08
Shatterhand (5): rank
K have to say these are all round good mitts but if you get down to really nasty temperatures they lack insulation , i tested them on a 2 day hike and the temperature ranged form -17 C to -5 the hottest and they lacked the insulation for these temps. They do however have great waterproofing both inside shell and outer shell and good and easy cinching system . Also the inner shell seem to have good resistance to friction for when u belay . All round a good pair of mittens .
