"My fingers freeze doing chores in the frequent 20 degrees or below weather here in NH. These gloves are nice and toasty in the raw Spring weather, but they are certainly not the frozen-bucket, 15-degree winter gloves I was hoping for. They are comfortable, but not waterproof."

Six years and still going

"I've had these gloves for six years and they're just beginning to show wear and tear. I wear them riding and around the barn all of the time and LOVE them. I live in vermont so negative weather is just a fact of life for me. These gloves keep my fingers warm and cozy. The other part that I love is that these gloves are still slim enough so that I can completely tack up my horse including all of the tricky bridle bits and pieces. The gloves are also nice enough so I wear them around town. I cleaned them by just throwing them into a mesh bag (to protect my other clothes from the velcro) and into the washing machine and they were like new again. The velcro is still really nice and strong and the ends still stay velcroed down nicely. Definitely worth the money!"

"Have had these gloves for 4-5 years and am ordering a back up pair. Warm, great flexibility and grip for riding and often choose them for my barn chores over bulkier gloves. They have worn amazingly well with hard use. Definitely recommend."

"For the price, I love these gloves. They keep my hands warm when I ride and I still have good contact with the reins. I wear different gloves for barn work as I am not sure these would hold up to that, so I only wear them when I ride."

"These are now my primary cool (35 - 50 degree) weather riding gloves. Love the feel of the reins in these, and the wind-proof back. I'm a 5'8 woman and was surprised I had to return the 7 for a 7.5, but I am glad I did and Smartpak made it so easy to do. 7.5 is perfect fit, and just enough room in case I want to add a handwarmer on the back of my hand for <35 degree days."

"I bought these after buying the summer version and they are almost as nice. They are very warm, fit well, and have a descent grip so the reins do not slip to much. I have had these for almost 2 years and the only issue I have had is there was a rip at the top of thumb after a while. I am not sure how that happened but I sewed it up and have not had any issues since."

"I love these gloves, and I am ordering my fourth pair, not because they wear out but because I keep losing them. They are nice and warm, and they are not too bulky to ride in. I also keep a pair for wearing with my non-riding clothes. As far as fit, my normal size is a little snug, but still ok."

"I may be a bit more vintage and therefore have less circulation...
I've found that the gloves and your fingers need to be warm before you wear them or they just hold in the iciness.
Also, the fingers are a bit long so it is difficult to do much but ride with them on..."

"Even after using the Ariat sizing guide, sized up to 7.5 so it was not TOO snug. Windproof backing and soft-suede like palm/fingers. Hands were warm in 30 degree with wind and the feel was great with the reins."

"I work for a cutting horse trainer, he gives me a hard time because I were gloves everyday, all year. These gloves are Very Durable. This is the second winter for this pair. I feed, clean stalls, drag hoses, groom, saddle, lope horses, EVERYTHING! I start wearing them at about 45 degrees, so they get used a LOT. These gloves have actually lasted longer than some of my leather ones. I like that they come in numbered and half sizes. ( S M L, like most winter glove sizes, doesn't give a close enough fit.) I will continue to buy these gloves as long as they continue to be made."

"I was happy with these gloves at first - comfortable and warm but still thin enough that you can ride in them. I was even thinking about getting another pair just in case they went off the market, since it's hard to find that combination of qualities in winter gloves, BUT then after 2 months of use, the seams at the fingertips on the left glove gave out and now I have holes on the tips of two fingers. Sigh. Going to give the Rockle polarfleece gloves a try now."

"I bought these gloves for winter riding. I bought my usual size. At first I thought that they would be too small because putting them on was like putting on a pair of breeches - but once on, they are very flexible. I can actually unbuckle blankets and tighten my billets and put on my bridle with them on. Are they really warm?? Well, they ARE gloves, so not as warm as mittens, but way more useful."
