I spend my winters climbing (a lot), and need to have the gloves, but then my hands are always cold too! I typically rotate my gloves with mittens - when standing around or belaying. I try to always have one or the other stored inside my jacket to keep them as warm as possible. It seems that companies make a variety of really sweet gloves and mittens for men, but no so for us ladies. My BD gloves have performed the best for me so far.

What I have done and seems to be working so far, is I went to an acupuncturist, for the circulation issues. It has worked really well so far, and my hands have been warmer than my husbands! (That has NEVER happened before!)

I also keep those little charcoal activated heat packs in my pockets or mittens for the added help!
