Objectively, a far superior product to gloves.
I have MLD eVent Rain Mitts (can't get wet when it's really cold). Pairs up with REI Elements jacket/pants. None of it's insulated, but it's definitely its own layer. After walking for 10-15 minutes in single digits, you'll likely take off fleece because it's too hot.
I have lightweight tech mittens under the shells. The combination is much warmer than gloves. Hands are toasty, despite neither being "winter" gear.
Would definitely bring them out for -17F.

Since I live in a city and am semi-poor (don't own a car), I'm always walking/taking the bus or subway. I also just got transferred to a project down in the Brooklyn Naval Yards which of course is about 12 minute walk from the closest subway (unless you're lucky enough to see a bus pull up). Let me tell you, this month has been awful but this morning was atrocious. Got some serious windburn and my hands were basically frozen when I made it to the site.Originally posted by Villanova U:
Serious question: how much time do you guys spend outside on a given day?
The only way I can reasonably understand people spending more time outside in this weather is if (1) they have a dog that needs walking, rather than just letting it run around the backyard with an electric fence; (2) you are poor and you take some sort of public transportation and have to wait at a bus stop or train station; or (3) you are poor and don't keep your car in a garage.

If you park outside it's terrible. You have to wait for the car to warm up before you get any relief. Normally you can just fight through the cold but when it's sub-zero the car struggles too. I was outside Chicago this week where it was -5 / -28 with the windchill yesterday. You could feel the resistance in the power steering and transmission until the car warmed up. It was a rental so who gives a shit, I just drove on and made the 10 minute ride to work before the car got a chance to warm up.Originally posted by NickleDimer:

I agree with Merc on this one. Who does this REALLY impact? Dockworkers and running addicts that refuse to use treadmills or alternative cardio workouts?
Yes, I do, I work with them. They can't pay their credit card bills in full.Originally posted by RSTRICK30:

The world is SPIRALING OUT OF CONTROL and it's worthwhile to whine about the 5 minutes of coldness while your car warms up?Originally posted by HereComeTheCats:
