Saw these on Endy's site and was wondering if anyone has a pair and how good they are?

Very good indeed.

I bought 2 pairs last week along with my Dan cam coat, one for me and one for the little wifey and we're well impressed with them. :)

We're using them every time we take the dog out for a walk. Yet to have any sign of cold hands, in fact there's times I have to take them off because my hands are getting too warm :rolleyes:

They're very good! - I bought a pair a couple of years ago to do a primitive survival course in Norway in December.
I took the same pair to Canada back in March for a Winter course with Mors Korchanski.
I'd originally intended to wear them with either liner gloves, or another pair of wool mittens inside, but it wasn't needed.
I don't think they're fully waterproof, but water does bead off the surface of mine so there is some kind of treatment on there :)

I have a pair that i got last winter, i use some glove liners with them and they are excellent. They arent completely waterproof but good enough for snowball fights lol

They have a decent gauntlet long bit so keep the snow out and cinch up tight with a strap. Im taking them to inland on sunday so will be able to see how they perform in really harsh conditions

IMHO they are excellent and really well made, they should last a long time

when i got mine he didnt have any white ones in stock, i got green which are a similar colour to british army lightweights

I had a couple of pairs of those a few years ago. They were very warm, quite waterproof and I wish I could find them -last thing I knew, they were in my folks' loft.
