I will use them for snow sports, but because I ride a motorcycle, I decided to give them a try while on a sportbike. Luckily I was able to ride my sportbike using these gloves. The high-quality gloves insulated me more than any combination of deerskin or leather gloves and inner liners specific to motorcycle riders. In other words these gloves helped me on motorcycle commutes when the temperatures outside drop to less than 45 deg F without wind chill. The generous amount of shielding past the wrist (bottom of glove) protects from any wind creep between the glove and motorcycle jacket. If this glove can helpe me resist the wind chill at over 65 mph and beyond, I'm sure they will serve me fine out in snow country.
