I like these gloves because they are warm, thin, and have the smartouch.  They are not SUPER warm for the zero-degree or below zero days in Minnesota.  However, for going in and out from the car to home/work/etc., they work just fine.  I would not wear them if I were going to spending a long time outside in very cold weather (less than 10 degrees) - that is what I buy snow gloves for.  If you are looking for SUPER warm gloves, these are not what you want, but if you are looking for warm and non-bulky gloves, these are great.
