Marmot Randonnee Mitt - Women's    Read other reviews of this product
 
These are not true mittens!   01-24-08   

These mitts have fleece finger separators inside of them -- essentially gloves with mitten covers! After just 10 minutes, my pinkies were ice cold because they were separated from the rest of my fingers. I do live in an area with extreme winters (it was -35 the other morning), but I do not have any hand circulation problems. You need thick, waterproof mittens with your fingers together for maximum warmth, especially if you participate in winter sports. The finger slots inside also prevent you from putting in chemical heat packs (if you want/need to). My previous mitts (five years ago) from Marmot were awesome, but these have been returned.
