Poster: A snowHead

Saw some in TKMaxx today, but too small does anyone know where I can get a pair online? I am serious.
OK, you can all stop laughing now

Megamum, What size? I'll have a look in TK Maxx here if you want (there are 3 that I regularly go past).

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks - the ones I looked at were kind of orange all over and had a little zipped pocket on the back of the hand for a hand warmer - they were £9.99 in our store. Well, believe it or not although I don't think I've got huge hands I tend to wear a mens XL . However, if you don't mind running a ruler over your own hand and using that as a comparison. My palm width is 3.5" (not including thumb) and from wrist crease up across the palm to the tallest middle finger is about 7.5". The finger length of the ones I tried on today was too short - they had just the two pairs in the store and they were both the same small size. If I could get them they would just be a great match to my Trespass orange outfit.
N.B. In case I can't get a pair I did also buy a standby pair of Rossignol gloves black with orange trim. I wear a pair of Rossignol gloves at the moment and they are just so warm.

Megamum, with a name like halfhand, make sure to remind him to buy both gloves

I don't believe this... Right, Megamum, go and contribute this to the technique thread - make some analysis of the right technique for these gloves. I promise to respond!

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Halfhand has apparently suceeded - thanks for the offers though - apparently they're in the post and I've got a cheque to send out tomorrow
JT, N.B. I know its not clear from the photo, I think the jacket is black and orange not navy.

Megamum, fogot to mention earlier, wait till you get the gloves before sending the cheque. If you don't want them just send em back witht the receipt (its inside a glove) and I'll get a refund.

You know it makes sense.
|
megamum please send some pictures of the gloves as i am ager orange ones as well to match my outfit.

They also have orange gloves by Rossignol and Reusch. In fact there are lots of Reusch gloves at TK Maxx

Ours had lots of Reusch gloves, but they were a few more pennies than I wanted to spend. I did get a pair of Rossignols with orange on them though (they had two orange designs). I've had Rossignols before - lovely toasty warm gloves they seem to be too, my current pair have got Gore-tex in them - I know some folks here swear by Gore-tex in gloves.
