From what I have heard, they are waterproof,but they dont breath at all. Your hands get pretty sweaty in them I guess.

sealskinz socks are warm but the gloves don't keep your hands warm,they are waterproof though.

I own both the gloves and mittens from Ice Armour and swear by them, although I agree with Stumper in that they don't breath well. I have never had cold hands when I remembered to bring them.

Another pair of gloves I use are called Chilly Grips (found them at a bait store near Bay De Noc, but now Gander Mtn. sells them). They have a rubber (quite flexable) palm and a synthetic top. They are great for handling fish and are nice on milder days. They work as a real nice bowhunting glove as well.

Has anyone tried the I.D.I. arctic armour gloves yet?  Our sponsor, fish 307.com sells them along with the suits.

I bought a pair of seal skins, and I am getting a pair of ice armour for christmas... The seal skins aren't very warm, but they are dry. I've only been able to get out ice fishing 2 times down here so far to try them out.
