These gloves are very thick and strong, completely water proof and weather proof. I used these gloves in heavy snow while putting snow chains on my car, and they were extremely useful.

My hands were completely dry even even after 30 minutes that it took for me to put the snow chains on my car. I have also used these gloves while cutting wood using a chainsaw, and while plowing snow out from under the car, and they proved to be very helpful and sturdy. Moreover, the wrist straps on these gloves can keep your glove tight and be used to shield your coat through it, if you choose to.

There is only one drawback: these gloves have thick fingers, and hence it is difficult to catch anything small and tiny like car keys, or a camera or even to hold a glass of water. But I understand that this might be necessary for providing layers of protection for this glove.
