This is a nice winter mitten that is good for walking or hiking, but lacks the leather palm to make a good ski glove. There are not individual fingers within the mitten. I like the glove but thought I could use it skiing and I can't.

My Favorite Piece of Clothing
I have been holding off on writing a review for these because it seems like Patagonia has a hard time keeping them in stock, and I'm selfish and want them all for myself. But I just bought two extra pairs, so I feel solid in my footing and able to share with the world how life-changing these mitts are. The past few years, the circulation in my... Read More hands has gotten worse and worse, and I live in a town where it pretty much stays below freezing for 3-4 months every year. I got these for my morning dog walks, which are frequently in single digit temps, and found them to be so comfortable and warm, that I now wear them for backcountry skiing, alpine skiing, and sometimes even nordic skiing if it's super cold. I literally don't go anywhere without them for at least five months of the year, and even this June when I went on a climbing trip, it got chilly and I was kicking myself that I didn't bring my mitts! My original pair has been stuffed in a lot of backpacks and dealt with a lot of cold temps and ski straps and is still in good shape, but I live in constant fear of losing one or having something break and not having a backup, so I'm very happy to now have more just in case Patagonia stops making these (please don't!!). I have small hands and could probably wear the XS, but I find the S allows for enough space to wear liners inside the mitts, which are great for extra cold days and/or still having your hands covered when you need more dexterity (read: when you're picking up dog poop). The extra air space may also make them a little warmer, but since I haven't worn the smaller ones, I can't confirm that. These mitts are super warm, super comfy (love the fleece lining!), squish down to nothing inside a backpack, stay warm in wet conditions due to their synthetic insulation, and are pretty enough to wear anywhere during the cold winter months. They're a winter game-changer for folks with cold hands.
Long story short: you can't afford not to own these.
I very nearly could not get the size large on my hand. I do not have huge paws, and once they were on the size seemed ok. As other reviewers have mentioned, the wrist is tiny. In face, my wife struggled a little bit to get her tiny hands into them.
I wanted them to work as they seem like the perfect concept for ski touring. I usually wear a very ... Read Morethin glove or nothing on the way up but want a warm mitt for the way down. It does not need to be durable. But there is zero chance I could get a slightly sweaty hand into these.
We appreciate your feedback on the tight design of the cuffs and we're sorry these mitts didn't work. We'll reach out to you by email with some options. Thanks for the review Geoff!

Light weight, run slightly small on the wrist.
Hands feel comfortable inside the mittens and they are light weight. The wrist part runs a bit tighter than other mittens I had and I have small wrists. So if you have thicker wrists, you may wanna try a size bigger.
I bought these on sale in August so I can't vouch for their warmth but I assume theyll be fine. In Patagonia world, my hands are in the upper range of size Small. Based on numerous reviews stating they run small, I ordered Medium. Good call. Plenty of room for my fingers but the thumbs fit snugly. Knuckles are snug but not overly so. Mine are ... Read More7.5 inches around. Elastic around the wrists is tight as others have stated and I have skinny wrists. Should keep cold & snow out. I think they will be fine. The build is typical Patagonia quality. Seams look perfect. No stray threads. I will follow up when the snow is flying.
I love these! I have gloves that I used before that I thought were fairly warm, but I wanted to try mittens and I'm so glad I did because they are so stupid warm! Wearing them in 20-30 (ok and sometimes in 40) degree weather to walk our pup and my hands stay warm the entire time.
I bought these mittens to share with my husband, since they looked so warm. He loved them and found them to be nice and toasty. I like the large size for myself also, and I have small hands. The insulation is great and they're soft inside.
These mittens provide the perfect warmth for what my cold hands needed. Have been wearing woolen mittens but extreme cold and high winds always left my hands feeling cold. Very happy with my purchase!
Well made, windproof, and warm without being stuffy, but seem to run a bit snug across the knuckles, and I don't have a very wide hand. A size XL would probably be too long for my fingers, so I'll hang onto the size L.
Living in the Midwest, I need a warm pair of mittens for dog walking, moving snow, and just being outside. My hands get cold easily, so I was excited to purchase what sounded like really warm mittens. I was very disappointed in the warmth factor of these mittens. They look good and I like the fact that they are waterproof, but for me, they don'... Read More;t keep my hands warm on those cold Wisconsin winter days.

Warm and flexible
I love that these mittens are not only warm, but they provide wonderful flexibility to accomplish some tasks like holding snow shoe poles easily. I wish they had elastic cuffs to attach to my hands so that I could take them off and not worry about dropping them. That would be my only recommendation for improvement.
Excellent product, but L/XL did not fit normal large size male hands. Very difficult to get on, thumb snug and cuffs too short. Not a chance for a liner to fit under. Fit female large hands perfectly. Sadly returned.
I just used these mittens for a half hour run in a 5 degree wind chill this morning and at the end, my hands were super warm and even a little bit sweaty. To me, thats a good problem to have for gloves this light weight. They perform just as well as my bulky waterproof ski gloves.
I am of average build/height/weight, but I would classify my wrists as slender. Usually bracelets never fit me because they are too large. Although the sizing of these gloves fit my hands perfectly, the wrist elastic was *extremely* tight, leaving impressions on my wrists after a matter of minutes. They were even too tight for my pre-teen daughter.... Read More I should have listened to the other reviewers that noted the same issue - buyer beware!
Hey there, Christie! We are sorry to hear about the mitts not fitting well and want to thank you for your honest feedback.

Nice But...
Very nice, well made warm mitten. I usually wear a large in gloves/mittens but these definitely run small. Tried an XL and still felt small. Also very tight around the wrist.
Not for me.
It was in the teens today and I didn't feel a thing. Also, even when biking below freezing, they're great. I have poor peripheral circulation, and I've never found gloves that worked until now.
Yooo these are epic. Fluffy, toasty lil pillows for my hands! I suffer from raynauds and so far, they seem to do the trick as far as keeping it at bay during my winter walks. Much love, Patagonia.
My fingers always freeze when I'm walking my dogs in the winter... until I got these mittens. So warm and comfortable! I should have ordered these years ago.
They are light, sturdy, easy to get on and off to do anything requiring fingers, leash/unleash the dog, for instance. They are undaunted in rain and snow. My hands are always cold, and these mittens keep me warm. I only wish they came in more colors
Love my nano puff mitts for skiing and hiking! I wear them in all kinds of snow. Not great for mountaineering (not waterproof) but great for the slopes!
The inside is soft and definitely will keep warm during the colder months. The key is to pay attention to sizing, I would suggest actually measuring to be extra sure. The wrist band is a little snug for now but I think after some use itll loosen up!
I bought these mitts las year because I was tired of my hands being so cold. At one point, I lost one of the mitts and was so sad when a replacement pair couldnt be found anywhere. After a couple of very sad weeks, I found the missing glove under one of the seats in my car. I was so happy to have warm hands again! As soon as I saw the mitts back in... Read More stock this summer, I ordered a second pair so Id never be without them again. Thank you for making the best mittens ever!!
thank you finally found something to keep my hands warm. the size was a little big but for mittens that's fine...more room to move fingers. love the tight elastic on the wrist
I ordered an XL because that was the only size left. And, I figured too large would be ok as I could wear a pair of liner gloves with them as needed. They fit great. But, I dont have very large hands. I wear a medium golf glove. I like the mittens. But, I think you will be disappointed if you have large hands.
These mittens were purchased because gloves did not keep my finger warm below 25F when hiking for 1/2 hr or more. The mittens kept my fingers comfortably warm. The thumb section is separated from the rest of the fingers. As a result, my thumbs became chilled, although my fingers were comfortably warm. Nonetheless, these were the warmest hand coveri...

I originally ordered a pair of large mittens and gave them to my (5 7) daughter as they seemed slightly smallish for me. Ordered 3 pairs of XL for myself, son, and other daughter (all 3 of us are ~6 foot tall) and all of us are amazed how well the mittens work especially considering the 0 F conditions in the upper Midwest the last couple weeks. Str... Read Moreongly recommend. Warm, comfortable.
I've been using these as my outer layer mitten over my mid-weight cap liner gloves. When i slip these on, it doesn't take long before my hands are super toasty.
I bought these just before the cold snap and have used them for walking and XC skiing. I usually have problems with cold fingers but not with these. Probably a size medium would have been OK but this was the last pair on sale . Thinking of buying the family some for Christmas next year!
I was looking for a pair of mittens for general outdoor use during our New England winters (walking, hiking, snow blowing, shoveling, etc.). A solution that allowed me to do some work while keeping my hands warm for relatively short periods of time. These mitts have been perfect in this regard thus far. A pair of experiential comments: 1st - the li... Read Morening feels not so durable. I'm wondering how long it will last before wearing away (time will tell, but the first feel isn't great). 2nd - I personally do not like the elastic loops at each cuff when being used to pull the mitts on. Just not a secure feel to the pulling experience when the thing your tugging on gives as much as these do. Neither a game breaker to date.
these are the first gloves which keep my hands warm!
These gloves are wonderful. They keep your hands warm in frigate temperatures. I just enjoyed them during a winter storm at the east coast of New Jersey .
My hands are always cold and I've searched a long time for mittens that would keep me warm. These mittens are excellent. When I placed my order they did not come in a woman's size so I ordered men's small/medium. They are a little wide on me which is okay because I can wiggle my fingers. There is also enough space to wear a thin pair... Read More of liner gloves. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
I wanted these for snow shoveling and snow blowing. They look like warm mitts but the thumbs are cut too tight. This is the problem with everything I have tried. Designers seem clueless. Returned.
These for me when running in temperatures below 25F. It's a bit disappointing but not unexpected that they do not breathe and will make your hands clammy. Docked a star because the opening is not too stretchy, which can make them a bit more difficult to get into when your hands are sweaty.
I decided this winter to get mittens for cold days walking. Was concerned because mittens can be bulky and cumbersome. These were perfect in every way. I like the tight wrist band with the pull on string.
First the Nano Puff mittens are great and really warm. I do only wear them for casual ware no winter sports. Most importantly the customer service at Patagonia is outstanding!!!! They went out of their way to help me find the mittens and were truly wonderful. Thank you so much!!!!!
I really love these mittens, they are light weight, and nice & warm. They also can be flipped inside out to dry pretty quickly. Just watch the seams around the cuff as it frayed a bit.
The Nano mitt is amazing. My hands are always cold in winter. I have tried every brand. The Patagonia is the real deal! My hands are the perfect temperature in these mittens. Best used when the temp is below 32 degrees or they may be too warm (if that's even possible). Well worth the money. I am a tall female with long fingers and I got the la... Read Morerge.
My hands usually get very cold and frozen during my winter runs. Tried many many running gloves. Nothing worked. Finally this glove seems to do the trick. Even in cold weather getting it on and off is easy. If it is very cold outside, I could just slip a hand warmer inside. And it keeps you warm and toasty all through the run. Thanks for such a gre...

I read the reviews that said these mitts ran a bit large so I purchased the medium (I might have purchased the large otherwise, I have wide hands). They fit great, are warm but not 'hot' and are a great look. For me the only teeny issue is the wrist is a bit snug.
Thanks for your detailed and thoughtful feedback, Clair!

Nano superiority
I loved these so much, I got another pair so I have them in the car, and in the "go bag". Going everywhere with these, I LOVE the way the grabloop at wrist pulls the glove on easily. I have cold hands, and 100 percent guarantee these mittens for anyone.
I picked these up because I'm a HUGE fan of my Nano Puff jacket. I've only used them a few times but here are my initial thoughts:
- Others have said these run big so I bought a medium as I usually wear a large, that was a mistake. I think these run true to size so I would say order your normal size. I'm considering giving these to ... Read Moremy wife and getting the next size up.
- They are warm but, like the Nano Puff jacket, they max out in the high 30* range for me. Any colder, I'm grabbing thicker mittens.
- This is probably a side effect of me needing the next size up but the elastic around the wrist is really snug. It's not uncomfortable, but you notice it the whole time you're wearing them.
Overall, these are nice mittens and I'm happy with my purchase.
We appreciate all the feedback, and we'll be happy to [help](https://help.patagonia.com/s/) you with a return or exchange. Note that the warmth can be extended with a very thin liner glove underneath the mitts, too!

Best Mittens Ever
My fingers get cold in gloves, so I wanted mittens that I could wear liners with if need be. So far, these mittens have kept my hands warm without liners and without them getting hot and sweaty. Theyre lightweight and with the textured material on the palm side, my dogs leash doesnt slither out of my hand.
I love these mitts - comfy, soft and warm. They are not too bulky or stiff. I have 2 pairs - both size small (I am petite - 5'3" - 115 lbs) - I probably could have easily gone with XS, but the small is nice and roomy. Love them!
Super cozy mitten. Used them tonight while hiking a local ski mountain in Vermont to watch the sunset and Full moonrise. Sweating on the way up i used liners, but I pulled these bad boys out to use for the hike down. Like a nest of comfort for my cold fingers. I say yay.
I haven't had a pair of mitts for quite sometime. So fit was a concern and for me the reviews seemed unclear. I used the sizing chart and measured Large. I then ordered both Lg. and Med. just to be sure. Here's what I found Medium: Was abit tight getting on and my fingers grazed the end. The body of the glove fit close.
Large: Was easy ge... Read Moretting on and just a tad of room for the fingers (I measured my finger length. Taken from the base of my hand to the tip of the middle finger 7 3/4"). The body of the glove is perfect with abit of room to trap heat. I can also wear a thin liner if needed with no problem. The finger length was key. I chose the large over the medium.
The only thing I might suggest is the wrist cuff be a little bit longer. It's not a deal breaker though for me. Enjoy the outdoors
My fingers are weirdly long, and the Medium size is perfect. I can extend my fingers out and just barely touch the extent of the inside. I usually wear Large gloves, but consistent with other reviews here, I found these mitts are a bit bigger than expected (runs kinda large), hence getting a nominal size smaller than I would usually.
Bought these for my wife and she loves them. Ideal weight and sizing, and the pull on loops are great. Her only critique would be that the gauntlet length could be longer to prevent gapping with jacket cuffs.
These mittens are warmer than shearling gloves. They were used in Maine on a freezing night and felt cozy. They stay dry and are easy to get on and off. With glove liners they easily go down to 15 degrees. They are unisex sizing. I wear size 7.5 women's gloves. The small is great. Using a thin and smooth glove liner in very cold temps.
Not too warm, not too light. Good enough dexterity for holding ski poles durable palm grip. Still unsure on sizing as per measuring chart I’m a M but am wondering if L might be better fit. Only downside to these gloves is they come contained in their own plastic bag which serves no tangible purpose other than destroying the planet. We do expect bet... Read Moreter in that regard.
Medium fit perfect for me. So far so good for moderate cold temps in Minnesota. Don't know what the lower temperature threshold will be for these puppies .. but sure I will find out soon
Took these to Wisconsin where it was roughly 20 degrees each day and snowing. Built snowmen, hiked woods, took the kids sledding. What more could you ask for? A great product again and very warm!
So far (mid-November), very warm despite their light weight. Hoping to test them out in cold weather in January and anticipate they’ll meet the challenge!
Very pleased, very warm and comfortable to wear. According to the chart I ordered a Med , it was too long, small is perfect and I do have a large hand.
I’ve had all kinds of gloves for cold over the past decade. From heavy duty leather and gortex, to super simple fleece and I kept running into the same problem...cold fingers.
I decided to make the switch to mittens for an upcoming trip to Mount Whitney, as the high was 33 in the valley and the low was well below freezing on top. These mittens per... Read Moreformed SO WELL. Never got cold with them on. They have a durable pad on the palms for add abrasion resistance, and fit true to size. Highly recommend if you can seem to escape cold hands.
Warmest gloves I’ve used and they are nimble enough to use a camera with. Check out Tim Canfield Photography if you want to see what you can create with your hands wrapped in Nano Puff Mitts!
These have yet to be winter tested but they are much more durable and heavy duty than I expected. Good amount of palm padding but not too much to weigh them down, I am excited to try these out for a full Midwest winter. I normally wear a L and this pair falls in line, great fit.
