Black Diamond Solano vs Hestra Heli Ski Mitt - Women's

To warm and comfortable hands and fingers. The First generation Solanos kind of reminded me of 60s era transistor radios..

This one right here again they're actually in really good shape. I don't know what you have that's actually eight years old in your closet or in your ...

I am a ski instructor and have to be out all day. The days that had a low of about 5 to 8 degrees with a high in the teens and not much wind only required the medium to low setting and one set of batteries lasted all day. At those settings, my fingers didn't feel warm - which I don't want - the just didn't feel cold or felt slightly cold. All it takes is the temps to drop about 5 degrees and the winds to pick up for me to need two sets of batteries (which I have) to last all day

I struggle with finding gloves that will keep my hands toasty and am willing to pay $$$ for warmth. However, these didn’t appear to be any warmer than my cheap Head mittens that have separate finger compartments inside which I love as it adds to the warm. Wish Hestra made a similar mitten!

The gloves are too tight to go over jackets and too bulky to go under. The cuff sort of sits uncomfortable neither in nor out. The on/off switch glows in the dark which looks odd.

) As I have Raynaud’s, I really need a good fit. So I’m returning these and getting a 10 in men’s. I wish they had a 10 in women’s because I like the color choices better. Oh well
