The Fox River ragg wool and leather gloves are very high quality. They are long as well, which means that if you want to pull them up all the way, they will easily cover your wrist. Also, they run true to size, not like the cheap wool gloves you find in a lot of retail and discount stores. Size large really is large, which is why I am giving my large pair to my son, who has big hands, and ordering a medium size pair for myself. The old adage, "you get what you pay for" is true with this product. They are not inexpensive, but they are worth the price, in my opinion. I have had many pairs of ragg wool gloves in the past, but they always ended up with holes at the tips of the fingers. The way these gloves are knit, in my view, should prevent this happening prematurely, if at all. I highly recommend this item.

This glove looked pretty, however, it is useless especially when there is only one layer of it. My friend bought an identical glove with one layer of ragg, and a layer of cotton inside which made the glove comfortable and warm. However, this glove is only one layer, when strong wind heats, you felt like your hand is naked and frozen.

For a dozen years we had these leather palm wool gloves. For decades they could be found at all of the department stores - especially around the holidays. Then a few years ago that all seemed to stop! The closest we could find were the more bulky fuzz or fiber lined variety of knit wool gloves with leather palms. They were warm, but too bulky for us. Well - here they are! The originals are back and these are great! We are very happy with the quality of these - and the price is right. They fit perfectly too!
