ski gloves

My hands soon get really cold and painful. Can anyone recommend some really good ski gloves that'll help keep out the cold?
Are mittens warmer than gloves?

re: ski gloves

mitts are warmer, if you suffer with cold hands then they are for you as the fingers help keep each other warm, its to do with the air trapped in the glove, like double glazing and string vests, they all trap air and help keep the warm in. what ever you get make sure they arn't too tight, fingers need to move about, in other words get mitts, hope this waffle helps

re: ski gloves

what about using mitts and the disposable heated pads they can last up to 8 hours and you can get a pair for about £1.20p so a cost of £7.20 for 6 days skiing

re: ski gloves

Thanks for all your help - think I'll go for mittens then. eltel - going to Pamps, not Bansko.
