I got the gloves primarily for jogging the dog. Been in use for a year now without any signs of wear. They have kept their patterns well.
For me, the comfort limit is somewhere around five degrees below zero. The only star falls out of the rather tight mouth opening, which does not need a spring and thus requires a bit of concentration when dressing.
And works well enough for touch screen as well. Quite a competent glove for my purpose.
Now that the weather is getting colder, I got the HeavyWeights of the same model, which seem to be able to handle dog runs ten degrees on the colder side.

Comfortable autumn and spring winter gloves. Good grip and anyway I like the loose fit, but not too loose. I don't think they are suitable for colder weather (below -2c) unless your hands are busy all the time. Nice jogging gloves and they were also quite good in the plussekeli's bendy hills.

Prepared for hiking or backpacking in winter. The thickness is thought to be for spring and autumn, but it seems to be fine in winter as well.
