Just got them last night after checking them out in Utah..I've ripped up every pair of gloves I have ever owned no matter how much I spent on them. These look unbreakable and beyond warm...time will tell.Got them off Moosejaw for 127.00...

I have a pair of BD Patrol gloves. I break them out when it gets really cold. They do the job. Pretty warm. However, when it got to sub -25, my fingers started getting tingly. I guess they have their limits. I hope they last long with you.

When it gets that cold, you need mittens. I was checking out a pair of BD mittens last month or so at Campmor. Nice stuff.

Purchased BD ice climbing gloves for coldest days. Toasty and warm, warmest gloves I've ever owned.

Bought them about 11-12 years ago and they look and perform like new. They hardly have any wear marks leave alone cuts and tears. Bombproof.
