Our ratings (out of 10)
1 to 10, compared with the whole market. Each says what it's based on. How we score
Warmth
Estimate from maker's specs: fleece or softshell glove 3/10How warm they keep your hands at camp and on the move. 3: Below average. Fine for some trips, not others.
Estimate from maker's specs
Weight
From maker's figures 9/10How much they add to your pack. 9: Among the best you can buy for this.
40 g for the pair, Montane's figure (size not stated; Montane's US page agrees): the under-60 g band. The Great Outdoors lists a size M pair at 45 g, which is in the same band.
Waterproofing
From maker's figures 2/10How well they keep your hands dry and the wind out, from how they are made. 2: A weak point.
A Thermo Stretch brushed-back fleece glove. Montane makes no windproof, water-repellent or waterproof claim: the 'no claim' band for fleece and liners. The Great Outdoors says hands get wet quickly in rain, though the gloves dry fast.
In short

- Cool, dry hill days in autumn and spring when you want a close-fitting, light glove

- Using a phone or camera with gloves on
Strengths
- 40 g for the pair
