The gloves are fine...but why the huge tags on the INSIDE of the gloves. It bugs me when companies still do silly things.

Falling apart after a a few days of use
Like others here I was surprised to see these gloves start to come undone after a few days of use. I got these gloves to use underneath my pair of synchilla gloves. I'm seeing new frays everyday so I'm not sure if the issue is the gloves or the fact that I also use them as glove liners. I want to believe I just got a bad pair and will be ...

Good liners
These liner gloves are as described. I've worn and washed them many times and I haven't had any issues with the quality. The only problem I have is the touch screen compatibility isn't great. It only works for me if I touch the screen with my finger at certain angles. If you're buying them specifically for that, you might get fr... Read Moreustrated. Otherwise these are high quality liners.
The big loops make them easy to pull on. I haven't used them very much yet so can't attest to the durability, but they feel high quality and fit good. These are quite thin, I'm planning on using them for ski touring and the occasional city bike ride.
I generally love Patagonia products and have purchased many items from them over the years. I was very excited to receive these glove liners to wear under my ski gloves. Unfortunately however, after a single day on the mountain wearing these, I removed my outer gloves to find these merino liners falling apart - significant piling and starting to sp...

I'm incredibly disappointed that these glove liners fell so far short of the great quality that I'm used to expecting from Patagonia. I can't recommend these to anyone.

Warmer than expected, great base layer
I wear these sometimes on their own for hiking in winter here in Taos, or with gloves or mittens over them, depending on outside temps. They feel thin but are surprisingly warm.

Nice walking glove
I was looking for a glove that was thin to wear during my daily walk. This glove seem to be exactly was I was looking for. Super thin material but stylish. I realize it's labeled as a glove "liner" but it works for my intended purpose. Not sure how well the material will hold up as it's really, really thin material. Great color.... Read More I ordered a size larger than the size guide recommended, good thing I did. The glove barely fit.
These glove liners are very comfortable, and have a strap attached at the base which facilitates taking them on and off. The one problem is that the Velcro on my ski jacket, ski pants and ski boots catch on the glove liner fabric and causes snags. They still are very comfortable, but their appearance is somewhat diminished by all the snags in the f... Read Moreabric, which is why I gave it only 3 stars. Without the snags it surely would be rated 5 stars!
I bought this glove for its purpose as a liner so I don't lose much warmth when taking off my outer, bulkier gloves (ski mittens or wool gloves) to use my phone out in the cold. Warm and breathable that also feels great against the skin.
I bought these liners to wear as a single layer glove on morning walks and light hikes when the weather is between 30º and 50º f. They are a little less warm than the cotton gloves I bought for $3 at the gas station, but obviously the material is much better in damp or wet weather and with sweat. The construction is fine, although you can somewhat ... Read Morefeel the seams along your fingers and knuckles, which I would call fine but not perfect. These are my first pair of gloves that works with a touch screen, and I appreciate the functionality although it sometimes doesn't work well. Overall I'd recommend to a friend with those caveats. Not my perfect glove, and a little bit short of what I'd expect given the price, but they are good enough to meet my needs.
Even though these liners feel great and fit perfectly, they are garbage and started to fall apart after exactly 1 half day of skiing. I wore them inside my ski mittens to replace a cheap pair of old ones that have lasted more years than I remember. These new ones have pulls and the start of holes for no reason. I really wish they were of better qua... Read Morelity because they fit so well and feel so nice.

Perfect liner for mittens
Used these as a liner for a pair of Arcteryx Venta Mittens on a few ski trips. They worked wonderfully and kept my hands nice and comfortable (temps hovered around high 20s/low 30s). Having the dexterity of gloves with the liner but the warmth of mittens is a great combo.
The touch screen capability works great from my experiences so far.
I wear these gloves under a thicker, Gore-Tex pair of outer gloves and already, both liner gloves are pilling after a month. For over twenty years, I have loyally worn Patagonia clothing for base layers, mid layers, and outer shells, and I have never had Patagonia clothing disintegrated like these gloves. Back to the drawing board for these liner g... Read Moreloves!

Versatile
I bought the gloves on a whim at the Patagonia store. Turns out they have become my go-to glove for every chilly situation. When its freezing I use them as liners to my leather work gloves (when stacking wood) or to ski gloves (yep, when skiing!). For light duty cold, they are perfect by themselves. And the finger tips really do work with my phone ... Read Morescreen. Small awesome detail: the loops at the wrist make them super easy to pull on. LOVE these gloves.
The wrist loops are nice for pulling on and hanging up or attaching to backpack. The material is a good liner but I have not really liked using them on their own. I've noticed wearing them under gloves helps keep me warm and when I need to take off my gloves to check my phone or something like that it is nice I can keep the liners on to retain... Read More a little bit of warmth and protection.
I wish they attached to each other with a buckle or carabiner or something. I snapped a small carabiner on the wrist loops to connect them so I done lose them. I don't think it would be bothersome or bulky to add some connection.
I originally ordered a pair of these in size medium. The medium pair I received were damaged with one glove showing a previous repair and the other glove with a 1/2 section of material coming off of one finger. The damaged glove was just one snag away from showing a hole. One other thing I noticed was that the medium size did not fit the length of ... Read Moremy fingers or thumbs very well. So I opted to return them and replace with a large pair. The return process was not difficult and the large pair I received are new and I really like the fit and how well they work with my iPhone.
I can actually text with them on! I recommend these as they are thin light and perfect as liner gloves worn below thicker snow gloves or used for cold days when going into town.
Soft, fits well, loop is a helpful way to pull it on. The touchscreen pads on the index finger and thumb actually work pretty well. Fair warning keep it away from velcro, it will get chewed up quickly.
I use this with the sweater mittens and with the two of them my hands are super warm no matter how cold it is out. Having Reynard desiese it's important that my hands are a arm and these are perfect!
I got these for my husband
He works for Amtrak and he said they are great to have when its not too cold but needs his hands not to feel stiff while opening and closing the train in between stops
The stitching along the cuff failed after just a few uses. The glove are also pilling after minimal use, which is cosmetic but implies a lower quality fabric.
I have Patagonia liner gloves from decades past, with a lot of backcountry trips on them, that are in better shape than these are after a few days walking around the city.

Great glove
I have tried a lot of gloves for running but these are the best. Warm and breathable
I bought these as a thin layer to keep my hands warm while hiking in the springtime of Patagonia. They worked out perfectly. They are thin and tend to rip a little too easily but they are exactly what I needed to keep my hands warm when the winds were blowing. If it were any colder though these gloves wouldn't have worked. They are definitely ... Read Moremore so for Spring and Autumn weather conditions. Despite them ripping I was still satisfied with my purchase, they did the job.

I own a pair of these and just purchased two more pair to use to run with. They are lightweight but keep the "chill" off my hands on the chilly predawn runs.

I am a naturalist, spend as much time as possible outside, moving very slowly. Hands get so cold it is painful. Finally found some mittens that work with binoculars, but they weren't warm enough.

Stay away from velcro!
Fit and feel is fine but get within an inch of any hook and loop closure (velcro) and kiss your gloves goodbye.

Great gloves
Great fit and good enough by itself in SoCal winter.
Wanted a lightweight , multipurpose glove for winter. I can use these on their own when conditions are mild without need to remove, or underneath a layer for extreme cold.
These gloves are just right. That are soft feeling, stretchy and comfortable. The fingertip tech touch spots actually work! My hobby is wildlife photography and I never have to take these gloves off! I bought two pair.
These gloves are true to the comments about them. They work for running in most temperatures of 30 or above, but it the truly cold weather they would not suffice. Nor are they designed for that.
I had hoped to find a liner glove with touch sensitivity that actually works. Sadly, these are no better than any other liner gloves that also don't have any affect on a phone screen more than one in 10 or 20 times. Other than that they look good and are nice liners. Hopefully they will last longer than their much cheaper similes on the store ... Read Moreshelf.

Warm hands on a cool day
40 to 60 degree days these gloves are the ones to wear for outdoor adventure.
Ive been used to oversized, over cushioned gloves. And I was looking for a pair or gloves that fit perfect and lightweight. These gloves checked all the boxes! Im a runner, and these gloves have kept my hands, dry, and warm. Very happy with this purchase.
Gloves are a little large in the fingertips, despite ordering based on sizing measurements. But the worst part is, the gloves are already pilling and have many loose threads after only wearing them for one week. I expect higher quality from Patagonia, especially considering the cost of this product.
Hi Edward, this could possibly a quality control issue and we'd be happy to help out with a return or exchange. You can begin either process here, https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html.

Great Light Weight Glove
I needed a light glove to wear when I'm walking the dog on cool mornings and this was the perfect choice for those days with temps of 40-50 degrees. I also plan to use it as a liner under my heavier gloves during very cold weather. It's a high quality glove that fits my needs.
Great purchase for our coastal weather. These midweight liner gloves are perfect for morning walks or hikes. They will keep your hands warm without a doubt.
This glove is exactly what I wanted in that it's a thin glove that's easy to get on and helps regulate temps, either as part of a layering system on long rides or by itself in mild temperatures.
My gripe is that the palm area is slightly too big for me and the fingers are too short, so it works okay but feels a little awkward. I don'... Read Moret tend to notice it once I'm going but the fit could be better for me. Potentially they'd fit great for someone with thicker hands and not as long of fingers.
Thinner than expected. They are very soft, snug fit, and true to size. Looking forward to seeing how they hold up in the backcountry on a multi-day hike.
For slightly chilly mornings, these come in clutch. Helps my hands stay toasty in the car without incasing my hands in inches of cloth. This is important to me since I have RA and cold hands = stiff and painful joints. For phone use, you do have to make sure the pads are correctly placed or it wont work. Thats not a big issue for me personally and ... Read Moregenerally its difficult to use a phone with most gloves. Overall, Im super happy I got these and will enjoy them for years to come.
They do help cut some wind hill, and do work with touchscreens somewhat. Because that is inconsistent enough to need to take the glove off any time it matters, and because the material catches on anything (jacket velcro, etc), not the best pair of gloves but better than bare hands.
I bought these as an add on to get free shipping on my order. :) But i really do like them. I like the little hookie thing to pull them on and they work well with cell phone.
I hate wearing gloves while hiking, but these are perfect! They're warm while still being thin enough that I can grab things out of pockets or bag without needing to take them off
These are thin, well fitting, good looking gloves with a nice pull loop. The emphasis is definitely on liner, because they don't provide much warmth by themselves. Haven't had a chance to sweat in them yet, but suspect they would be very good at wicking moisture. The screen fingertips/thumbtips work well.
Great base layer gloves made from the same material as my Capilene base layer tops. Perfect under a pair of warm mittens when its really cold, and also good for those runs when you almost dont need gloves, or on a long run in the 40s when you might need them for just part of the outing. The straps make for a quick on/off motion, and the little smar... Read Moretphone pads work like a champ. Im 63 with long-ish fingers and these gloves are about a millimeter from being too short: if youve got extra long digits the XL might be a better choice.
I use these gloves as liners to a shell. Great fit and appreciate the "cord" for pulling glove on. I also use them as a standalone glove but they do not have sufficient grip for opening bottles, twisting knobs, or using a touch phone. Great colors. To improve, there should be a cord attaching the gloves (to connect - not lose - when glove... Read Mores are removed).
Liners combined with a pair of synchillla gloves are perfect for keeping your hands warm. the gloves are easily pealed off when you need a thiner touch either using your I-phone or retrieving your money at the Farmers' market.
Great Patagonia quality, not really a wear alone for warmth glove. Midweight is misleading, it is strictly a glove liner (of great quality). Not meant to be wear lone, unless its in 45+ degrees.
Thanks for your feedback on the gloves, Gerardo! We're sorry for any misunderstanding. The material of these gloves is the same fabric as our Midweight Capilene tops and bottoms.

Run With It
Works well with the Peak Mission Glove-Mittens below 20F while running. Serves a moisture management role & minimizes cold spots rather than specifically trapping heat. They easily stow in a vest or shorts pocket so a welcome fine tuning layer for variable weather.
Ordered these as an alternative to wool liners because I thought they'd be more durable (my Capilene bottoms are nearing their second decade of service), but even trying them on I snagged them on my shell's Velcro more than once. The construction is great, the pull loop is really well designed, but I think the fabric will quickly look rat... Read Morety.
I have been a long time fan of Patagonia products. These gloves meet the criteria for keeping my hands warm for any outdoor activity I pursue. Light, durable and sustainable, I would recommend them to my friends.
Excellent product, very good warmth for weight, and excellent fit. Would suggest offering a bright yellow color or add a reflective accent for when using the product in low light environment, say running in winter.
I ordered these for my husband who sometimes runs very early in the morning and it's dark and quite cold. I first ordered the Lg. and they were too small. It was very easy to exchange them for an extra lg. and I received them a couple of days later. The extra large fits him perfectly and he is so pleased with them! Highly recommend.
Solved a problem I have long had: how to keep my hands both warm and usable while running and hiking in cold and wet weather. I usually wear them by themselves, not as liners, unless it's really, really cold. Very smart, practical design. Fast-drying. Gloves supple enough to let you text-message or turn a page in a guidebook. A seemingly small... Read More innovation like this can make a world of difference.
I received these for Christmas, it's now January 6th. That is less than two weeks of wear. The left glove has a hole forming where the finger connects to the palm of the hand and the right glove has a hole on the tip of the thumb. That is unacceptable for a product at this price point, and speaks to poor quality construction.
I know Patagonia... Read More offers the program where you can send items back for repair, which is great. The problem is the repairs are super backed up (not their fault), and it's winter now. What are you supposed to do when the item you planned on for this winter running season is toast after less than 14 uses?
If you are on a budget and you count on Patagonia's gear to offer a solid value and reliability it's very frustrating when their stuff falls apart so quickly. It's not like all of us have multiple pair of running gloves we can fall back to when one fails.
Very disappointed in this product. I'll be sending back in the Spring for repair. Would not recommend to anyone.
These gloves are not warm at all. I have an old pair of good quality gloves that needed some extra warmth so I bought these liners to go inside. They do nothing at all to keep in the warmth. The touchscreen feature also doesnt work with my screen protector on my phone.
Easy glove to wear alone or under a mitt. Surprisingly warm though lightweight. Love the easy on wrist loop. Great colors and design goes with everything winter or fall.
These gloves are not warm. They will not keep your hands warm in temperatures below 45 degree fahrenheit. They are also not wind resistant. The upside, if there is any, is that they feel comfortable and are true to size. Sadly, I can't recommend this product.

Just about right
Gloves slide on easily. I have Renauds and need extra layers and warmth. The gloves are a bit short and the pull-on cords get in the way. Over all, the gloves are a great weight, not too bulky and provide the necessary warmth under my Hespera mittens.
