While on the subject of winter wear, I have an issue with cold fingers. I have tried a few different cycling (and non-cycling) gloves. I do ok with them down to 32F/0C. Once subfreezing my fingers and/or thumb get too cold. Glove liners don’t help and just make fingers feel fat AND cold.

The best solution I have found is mittens. The good news is I find they keep me warm even on coldest days. Bad news is shifting, braking, and handling are less nimble. I should probably accept this but still would love to find gloves that give better “feel” yet keep fingers/thumbs warm on typical winter temps of say 20-30F.

Suggestions?
