| I bought Black Diamond Guide Gloves because they were ranked in the top five ski gloves for women on About.com - I figured their experts would know. They look great, are very comfortable and I love the removable liner, but unfortunately they are not nearly as warm as I hoped. I was skiing in Australia, only out for an hour and a half before my fingers were cold. A little disappointing considering the good reviews. They are good, but not sure they are worth the extra money. |

| My fingers get cold VERY easily. These gloves are supposed to be warm, according to everyone I have talked to, however, after wearing them everyday this winter, I was not satisfied. My fingers were almost always cold. I took them back and got mittens instead, which should work better for me. If your fingers don't get cold easily, then these gloves will work great! They look really cool, especially in the granite/pearl color. |

| Just used these for the first time today! My hands were sweating on the skin up....but the inside actually dried....and kept my hands warm for the way down. I went for a smaller fit to be more dexterous, and they are already breaking in fine. Also, the gaiter is really long, which I like, but is not for everyone. All around, very, very warm for my wimpy fingers! |

| I originally bought these three years ago and they had the schoellar fabric and primaloft liner. I loved them- I used them for everything- ice climbing, backcountry skiing, mountaineering etc. Every now and then I would get a cold finger but I could just ball my hand in the glove and warm up - usually it would only happen if I was standing around for a while. The only other issue I had with them was if they got a little wet or my hand was a little sweaty the liner would turn inside out when I pulled my hand out . This was especially frustrating on ice climbs etc because I would have to pull the glove apart and push all the fingers back out put it on my hand and then put the shell back on. Anyway, other than that I liked the glove enough that I bought another pair recently after losing one glove. So why the three stars???
Well, the gloves I bought as replacements were not the same. They had the same name but that was it. They were not made with the schoeller dry skin but some other cheap stiff fabric. The had a wool liner instead of the primaloft liner which was really stiff and itchy. I tried hard to like them but after ski touring with them and having itchy hands that cramped up trying to hold onto my ski poles with stiff ass gloves I returned them and bought the OR ascent gloves. It's too bad because the OR ascent gloves aren't as warm as the original BD gloves but they aren't itchy either. |

| I bought these for my wife. We do a lot of skiing in and out of bounds and I hope to get her into overnight winter backcountry. Her hands are endlessly cold despite proper hydration and calorie intake. Bottom line is these gloves are PACKED with insulation. If your hands are still cold with them on, you have issues other than the gloves. No other glove I've seen packs in insulation like this. If you're still cold, buy mittens because gloves just ain't gonna cut if for ya. The only reason they got 4 stars is because of the lack of wrist strap... However she says the elastic wrist feels plenty snug and secure. |
