These gloves will keep your hands warm as they did on today's 38 degree, windy ride. The problem occurs if you take them off on a stop and your hands are sweating they are very difficult to get back on. As you take them off the inner liner also pulls partially out and becomes misaligned.

I live in central Texas, so we are talking about brutal winters here. These have held up well in the 30s and 40s, with little to no wind getting through. I really like them due to the dexterity and feel.

I had these for years now. Lost one today so came in to see if they still are for sale. The best commuter glove I've had; Great fit, breathe well, perfect in temperatures from +4°C to -5°C, even OK for slight rain/sleet/snow. Gore-tex or similar is better in medium to heavy rain.

I have a few rides in with the Element 1.5 gloves between 20-35 degrees F, and they have worked great so far. I don't think I'll need to put my pogies on until it gets well under 15F. I'm really happy with the grip of the gloves as well, I don't feel like I'm compromising warmth for control. By the end of one of my rides it was nearing 35F, and the gloves did start to get a bit warm, but I believe they are rated for a little colder than that, so I'm not saying it's a bad thing.
