Default At - 20 degrees clothes do make the man

We are seeing some incredible advancements where clothing is concerned.We've come a long way since the days of flannel long johns and battery powered socks! Here's where you can talk about the latest and greatest and let others know about any finds you've made.

Default Glove mounted shield squeegie

Anyone used these before. They seem like a cool idea. Not sure if I am sold on it though. Seems like they would be useful on those days where the temps are hovering around 33 degrees or higher and or it is kinda misting out. In the past I end up scratching my shield with iced up gloves. May be the same thing would happen, I don't know.
Speaking of gloves, I can't seem to ever get a decent pair of gloves. When they seem to be warm enough, they end up being to stiff. Ends up fatiguing my thumb and overall hand. Any suggestions?

2 pairs keeps me warm. Loose warm gloves over Neoprene. For thumb try folding it over and pushing with only the tip. Even if you can only do that on smooth surface, it will help.

I had always wore nothing but basic mechanics gloves,,, then we hit a 27 below day and WOW,,, mechanics gloves werent going to cut it anymore. So I got ahold of a pair of discontinued cat gloves and absolutely love them. Easy to more, water proof, absolutely love them... even picked them up at 75% off,,,

Default gloves&clothing

i have always had problemsfinding the right pair of gloves! this past season i looked into everything! gore tex is where its at it keeps the weather out but the material lets the moisture out from your hands as well, i would also reccomend getting them a little big soyour hands have a little more breathing room. i havent had any problems cents
