Warmer Than Expected

Picked up this Glove as a replacement for the Fox Antifreeze. I originally had very low expectations when I felt the thickness of the glove, and how loose the material was across the back of my hand. Klim has a good name in Dual Sporting, and Adventure riding, so I assumed that it would be a quality product. Turns out that was a great assumption.
I took the glove out today to ride in a mixture of snow, ice and mud. I used a set of wicking liners inside the glove, and not once did my hands get cold. We had a high of 45, but going into the hills the temps were in the high 20's and low 30's. Windstopper preformed as designed, hands didn't get wet and for the first time my hands didn't go numb!
Most gloves cause me to have a numb thumb and index finger, the loose material was a big benefit in that respect. I'm not sure how the material will handle consistent abuse against desert brush.
I can see myself using these gloves with liners down into the high teens for temps, and without liners into the low 70's. I would purchase this glove again.
