Gloves/Mittens

For those in the colder climates and who are trying mightily to avoid the dreadmill, I thought I'd drop a line to say that I've become a big fan of the Asics Convertible Mitten, which I bought from RoadRunnerSports when the weather here in Michigan turned downright ugly:

I've used them a few times now in some pretty harsh temps and the have kept my four fingers toasty.  I do still have to pull my thumb in from time to time to warm up, but, for me, that is not a major know against them.  Also, the exterior thumb material is fleece (so you can wipe your nose from time to time...)

Thanks Kevin. IMO snot management is a highly underrated feature!

Cryogenic rhinorrhea. Not to be confused with the gustatory variant.

I use something very similar, but I think a little more light weight. Saucony Ulti-Mitt (it also includes "plush cloth wipes")

I might have to try on the Asics for the cooler weather. What temps do you use these gloves for?
