Lost Coast Fingerless Mitten - Men's

Started falling apart after first wear

First of all, the sizing was way off from the size chart. Based on the measurements of my hand, I was right in line with a size medium, but when I tried them on after they arrived, they were huge! I should have ordered a size down. Second of all, the sticking holding the mitt flap to the glove started unraveling within minutes of use. I’ve only worn them once for a couple of hours, but the mitt flaps are only barely hanging on and, couple with the weird sizing, it makes me not want to wear them anymore. I can try to get the stitching redone and reinforced, but I shouldn’t have to do that for a brand new glove. They were warm though, so there’s that.

Both flaps fell off in a week

Both the flaps fell off within a week. Shocking as I only used them a couple times. It was like the stitch was not tied off. For the price I am very displeased.

Good Hybrid

A good running glove. Allows for much needed dexterity and warmth at the same time. The fit runs tight, so size up one size. The leather palm is great for the dog leash and appears it will last.

Fantastic Quality with Thoughtful Features

I loved the Fingerless Mitts—the tight-knit quality and the added magnets were fabulous touches. However, I had to return them because the palm length was an inch too long for me. While I considered washing and shrinking them (as they’re wool), I didn’t want to risk it at this price. For reference, I have medium-sized female hands with long fingers and ordered a small. Men with similar sizing might find them a better fit, but a women's version would have been perfect. The thumb length was perfect. The only other drawback was the palm patch—not actual suede, which I would expect at this price point. Otherwise, the quality and design were top-notch.

A winter staple. Warm and perfect when I need my fingers.

OR gloves/mits always exceed expectations

material is comfortable and thick enough for fall moose camp. Lots of space in mid folder for heat pack

Disappointing

Bought these gloves last winter and have barely used them because the sizing is so weird. The fingers run way too long but the palm of the glove is too tight. I have pretty normal hands that work with most gloves. Also the fingers in these are all cut to a similar length so your pinky lives in exile. Points for seemingly good build quality though. Just a shame about the cut/sizing.

not functional

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I literally thew them out after one use. Pro: -they're warm and the magnetic button for the mitten is nice Lots of cons: -way too bulky -what's the point of fingerless gloves with a fingered thumb? they are worthless for everything you need to do with fingerless gloves, including fly fishing -the flap constricts the fingers which minimizes warmth when it's needed most

Great pair of gloves

These mitts are soooo warm. They do run bigger on the size so be prepared for that.
