ROFL!! No, I just carry a large 16oz bottle of Germ-X (the one with the pump) in my front pocket. Makes it easy to squirt. In fact, one in each pocket. Right hand, left hand. ROFLMAO
Anyway... a guy that did our climbing 10 years ago wore them while climbing 80' during a snowstorm and wind. His hands never got cold. Then I saw that Tessco sold them, so I figured maybe it was a neat trick. Tried it, and sure enough. Keeps the moisture in, but doesn't let the wind hit your fingers I guess. Next time I go into the truck I'll see who makes those gloves. They don't sell this model at Home Depot. That same manufacturer sells gloves at home depot, but are labeled "Handyman" and don't have the little sticky pads. Not really sticky either, but they grip very well.
