How is the finger and thumb length? Come up Long, there is space at the finger tips

“These kept my hands dry and warm while snowmobiling. Great! But there’s definitely an issue with sizing. I have small hands so I bought the small. But the fingers were too long whilst the wrist was really tight. Tight but bulky. I guess this is because of the batteries so I don’t know how this can be resolved. But the tightness meant it was hard work getting them on when you’ve already got a coat on, and a mission getting them on before you put a coat on. Hard work all around. But I still wore them and was good enough.”

“Sadly these gloves have not been successful on holiday. They are very difficult to pull on . I have a very small ladies hand so I can’t imagine how others manage! The battery is uncomfortable at the wrist The heat on full is satisfactory but doesn’t last that long. The lower temps help the gloves to stay warmer longer. Sorry about negative review”

“Amazing gloves, super warm without the heater but even warmer with it. I would advise getting a size up as the it is rather tight getting your hand in with the batteries connected. Other then that it is a superb product.”

“Very impressed! I do an hours early run with the dogs every morning and when it’s cold my hands really suffer. I’ve tried several “extreme weather” gloves but I always get home with my hands frozen and barely able to undo my shoelaces. After getting these for Christmas I’ve now tried them on a -2 and then a -5 run and they are amazing. After 15 minutes I’m on medium setting, after 30 on the lowest and at 45 I turn them off and the residual heat lasts easily the last 15. They are so warm! If I had one niggle it’s what others have mentioned, the cuff does seem disproportionately narrow and is not elasticated so it is a struggle to get them on and off, especially over my watch, which is a bit of a pain when I have to keep removing them to pick up , but it’s a niggle I can easily live with as these are the best gloves I’ve ever tried by some margin.”

“I got these for my girlfriend for Christmas. The heating element is fantastic and they are really warm. The sizing, however, is a bit odd. I got her the smallest size Sealskinz do, but they are big enough that I can wear them and they are only marginally tight. I usually wear a large. Overall, I would say we are happy with them and we can make them work but Sealskinz need to have a little look into sizig.”

“Too tight in the cuff. Impossible to get glove on with battery in place and vice versa also thumbs way too long. I returned these.”

“Good quality gloves and great battery life. I have Raynaud's and these really helped on a recent mountain trek in icy conditions. Looking forward to trying them skiing. Only criticism is that they are quite big on smaller female hands. I wear a glove liner to try and make them feel like they fit better.”
