I LOVE these. They are well made and feel great. I use them a lot in the winter here. For places like the PNW where winter is normally not real cold, these are perfect. If I am going inside and out a lot they are not too hot. They seem to hold up very, very well. It takes me several winters with untold washings to wear a pair out. No matter how many times they are washed they never seem to sage of lose their fit. I have found it's best to hang them to dry so I keep many pairs on hand.
