I'm 64, live in Ontario's snow belt and have tried every glove and mitt known to mankind.
If they aren't dry you will freeze your hands.Every job dictates a different kind of glove.
For long periods outdoors,snowmobiling,blowing snow,a cloth glove worn inside a leather or nylon mitt will keep your hands warm for hours in the most extreme temperatures.
For doing jobs around the barn or farm, I found that cheap lined cloth gloves work well, I buy them in sets of six.I keep them by the stove when I come in so they are dry,keep two pair in the truck.When they get ratty and worn I toss them in the stove.I have leather work gloves and construction gloves make by Toughduck,they appear to be strtchy cloth with a rubberized palm and finger bottoms, they are good for construction, good grasp,keep your hands warm and they are tough and last well.
Re other clothing..layering is the best.I wear a T shirt and work pants the year round,I put coveralls over that when I go out in cold weather and a bush jacket with hood over the coveralls. I can work all day on a construction job in winter weather and not be cold,sometimes have to open my jacket and overalls a bit to stay cooler.The most important element of winter survival is to be dry,take a layer off if you get heated,put back on when you cool down, keep dry gloves or mitts on and always wear head wear,a touque in cold weather. It is estimated that 25% of you body heat is lost through the head.So..cheap cloth gloves at the dollar store !

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
