I bought these gloves because I wanted to have a warm pair of fingerless gloves without being bulky so I can work on the computer. the cashmere is really fine, soft and there are no strings hanging from the open fingers like the usual $4.00 pair of knitted gloves. I will keep these for best. On another note about size, I usually wear womens size large gloves and these fit perfect without stretching them out too much. Very light weight and non-restrictive. Worth every penny.
