The Men's Venta LT Glove by Arcteryx. These lightweight and breathable gloves with Windstopper technology are the perfect windproof companion for high-output aerobic pursuits such as skate skiing, X-country skiing or trail running. A light micro check backer warms while wicking moisture away from the skin for rapid evaporation. Supple leather protects against ski poles and a trim-fit cuff reduces layering bulk.

These gloves are pretty, pretty, pretty good. The Windstopper fabric really stops…uh, wind. The digits are pretty easy to articulate. I have been using them for running so far in about 32 degree weather and they work great. My hands stay warm but never got too hot. Another good thing about them is they are pretty long on the wrist so they fin under or over long sleeves well and do not allow a gap.
Bought these gloves to use when I go cross country in the Norwegian mountains. They are good at keeping my hands dry, and the insulation is great for a glove this thin. Ass a result they easily keeps my hands warm down to -10 celcius, and even colder if used with additional layers. Have used them a lot, and they will last long as they are reinforced with leather where the the wear is high.
"Great fit, feel and warmth for weight but not perfect"

Bought these for Patagonia, it was windy like you wouldn't believe, these gloves kept me warm with the windstopper but maintained dexterity. The fit of these was great for me but its always personal with gloves.Small touches like the tailored curve of the fingers so that clenching your fist pull the cuff of the glove up really help. The problem with these gloves is that the finger tip fabric inst quite right, it catches on rough objects, it might be the weave or the face fabric itself but I do tend to baby mine as a result. Aside from that they are great!
I am wearing this now. I LOVE the chest pocket and it is great on its own, under a shell, over a wool baselayer and combined with a winter jacket. Worth it!
