Title: Prism Gloves from Montane
Post by: LennyJ1 on January 30, 2013
1-Ounce Wonders — Drop them in a storm and they might blow away. But the 1-ounce Prism Gloves from Montane offer adequate warmth for many winter tasks, from ice climbing to skiing to frozen trail runs.

Gloves pack up small in sack

A combo of Pertex fabric outers stuffed with airy PrimaLoft Eco synthetic down offers warmth and a wind-proof design for the fast and light crowd. Great as an emergency backup glove, too. $57. Release date is next October.

Warmth comes from thin fabric and synthetic down insulation

Their Extreme gloves/mitts are a bit like that. Primaloft back of hand, wicking pile lining on palms. I got the mitts for £30, keep me toasty on the bike in sub-zero. Pack about the size of a fist. Very nice  ;D

Maybe these ones are more dextrous?

Be good for fiddly tasks, like getting stuff from your rucksack, driving on a cold wet night etc
