Outdoor Research Omni Gloves - Men's

Fits like a glove!
February 26, 2013

Outdoor Research gloves are pretty much the only gloves I've tried that fit my hands perfectly. These are nice mid-weight liners, a little thicker than my old PL-150 liners. The seams on the inside aren't flat like the PL gloves, so it'll take some time to wear them in, but it's not a big deal. They have a nice rubberized camo print on the palms that also glows in the dark.

Another quality glove from Outdoor Research

I have owned several pairs of OR gloves throughout the years and they always seem to last forever... in fact, I still use them all! While I have only used these particular gloves 5-6 times thus far, them seem to be another high quality glove that should provide years of use. They are well made, the fit is close and I really like the grippy palm area. My only negative with these gloves is that they are not well suited for below freezing temps as they do not seem to provide as much warmth as my older OR gloves and therefore I would suggest combining them with an outer glove for really cold temps. Other than this, if the temps are at or above freezing, these gloves will keep you plenty warm.

Almost perfect but one major flaw

Exceptional dexterity, great materials, very wind resistant, somewhat water repellent and pretty warm. The only flaw with these gloves is the interal expossed seams in the fingers. For me, this pinches circulation and leads to cold fingers (but a warm palm). You might consider buying a larger size to compensate the finger size issue.

OR Omni Gloves
February 10, 2011

I recently picked up a pair of these gloves prior to a weeklong ski/snowshoe trip. I planned to use them both as a liner under warmer gloves and/or under waterproof shell mitts on cold or wet days and as a stand-alone glove on nicer days. The weather ended up not dictating a need for shells or layering, so I just used them by themselves for all of my snowshoeing and general hanging out outside. The gloves were plenty warm for me in temps ranging from the low 40s down into the low 20s (I didn't get a chance to take them lower for any extended period of time). They also turned out to be decently windproof. They don't seem to hold much moisture and they dry quickly, so that's a plus! The fit was just about perfect for me (I tend to be about a perfect medium). The gloves have a slight bit of stretch, but not much, so getting the right size is important. The glow in the dark grip treatment to the palms works... they definitely glow bright green in the dark but the grippy patterned treatment doesn't hold up real well. On multiple fingers, I find that pieces of the grippy stuff have pealed or are pealing off. I'm not sure how important the grip treatment is to me yet, so I'm going to keep using them and see what happens as (I assume) more of the grip delaminates. Overall, though, the gloves have exceeded my expectations.

good for pocket gloves

The other reviews nare quite accurate. I'd just add that they are a good pair to keep in my pocket for when i need driving gloves or for short periods outside. Negatives are that I can feel the wind through them and I can the raised internal seams but the arent abrasive. I do like the glow in the dark rubberized grips and the pull-on loops.
