Touchscreen Compatible For A Very Short Time

Gloves are touchscreen compatible when new. After a few days, dust will adhere to the finger rubber strips and will no longer be touchscreen compatible. Having touchscreen compatible gloves was my main purchasing decision. Regarding warmth, you'd better have good blood circulation in your hands because there is little insulation for cold or windy days. I was expecting that.

Not Pl400 Alternative

Not anywhere near heavy weight. Medium to light. Material is very comfortable, but the thumbs are shaped wierd and have extra material at the tips making the touch screen feature not work. I miss the PL400 gloves so much! They were perfect. These are not suitable replacements.

Lightweight gloves that still keep your hands warm without all of the bulk.

Great Sensor / Every Day

I have the intermediate weight OR sensor gloves used mountaineering in the Alps and really liked them. I was hoping these had allowed for better dexterity and they did. I’ve used this for everyday wear, rucking, hunting and some mountaineering in Maine. The coldest I’ve worn these were at around 10°F with the windchills around -2°F. I was active during my wear and had no issues. I find these stay try better than the intermediate OR glove and really think the grid interior keeps my hand dryer and warmer than the intermediate.

Good Day-to-day Gloves

I have been owning over 20 pairs of OR gloves since 2010, it is always size L for me, and I have almost always been satisfied about fitting until recently. All the new pairs I've got seem to have an awkwardly long thumb, about 1/2 too long on size L (9). Probably a bad hand template. On the other hand, the Vigor Heavyweight gloves are a replacement for my old PL 400 sensor glove which the sensor finger ripped off over time. They are tighter than the PL 400 and thumb is too long. Furthermore, Heavyweight does not mean extreme cold weather, but simply the thickest version of the vigor. Think of those as a kind of base layer system. They are good for commuting/day-to-day or high intensity activity by semi-cold day. Work best around -5°C to 5°C for a long period of time. Finally, the sensor fingertips work pretty well.
