Black Diamond Mercury Mitts Cold Weather Mittens, Black, X-Large
A fully waterproof shell and Prim aloft insulation make the Black Diamond Mercury Mitt a popular choice for year-round use. Four-way stretch Pretext Shield fabric and a large gauntlet keep moisture at bay and the goat leather palm with Kevlar stitching increases durability for seasons of hard use. The removable split-finger liner features a high-loft fleece lining for increased warmth and comfort and a Dry insert adds moisture protection even when you use the liner by itself.

Great extreme cold mittens Pros- Built extremely well- Extremely warm- Can use a different liner with the shell in warmer conditions- Pretty good dexterity for mittens this bulkyCons- Used the Black Diamond measurements and the gloves are still a bit tight around my fingers.- The clips to hold the two gloves together seem to be pretty small and fragile and will probably break first- My hands tend to sweat in them if I am hiking even on days it is below 0F, breath…
Well-made, small? I bought these for an upcoming ski trip to Colorado in February, so I can’t revue the effectiveness of the insulation. My fingers do get numb, even at 40 degrees, so I hope they work! But I can say that my hand measurement was at the top end of small and the bottom end of medium, so I ordered the medium and they are exactly right. So if unsure, order the larger size (I guess the Chinese have smaller hands?). They appear to be very well made. It is very hard to pull the draw cord to tighten…
Good stuff
