@jackoneilsg12893 years ago I actually wanted and got them for Christmas. Just because of your earlier videos😂
But the magnets do not really work. 8

@geroldknoebel24023 years ago I already wear, because of the rides with the Arctic Cat in winter lined leather motorcycle gloves. Well greased and additionally impregnated with beeswax. Are well protected against moisture for a few hours. When hiking in the mountains, where it is really cold, I would pull me well insulated heat protection gloves, with cuffs over. Of course impregnated. Logically, I am then at a cost of over 250€, but I have dry, warm hands and that for some winter.
Greetings from Frankfurt ...

@RossBoss907 months ago Thanks, got these on order for hunting this year, gets cold up in Canuckistan and it's annoying not being able to use a trigger without freezing hands.

@wildernesslife64793 years ago Wassup Grunt! Good Video Man I appreciate your work

@irondog82503 years ago I do not have a use for those mittens but they did look nice, and the video was entertaining and enjoyable.
All the best. 3

@WilmasHeartyLivingChannel3 years ago Very nice review of your mittens. Looks so warm and use. Awesome video.

@alexanderweaver48383 years ago Awesome review, Randall. Apparently Decathlon is not well known around here. I'm familiar with the company only because I was stationed in Germany during its inception in 1986 by the French athlete Michel Leclerq. Now with well over 800 stores world wide it offers sports gear for nearly every sport as far as I know. It won't be long before Decathlon becomes more recognizable as more You Tubers use the products such as Solognac. I have two pairs of mittens and one pair is from Thinsulate with wool glove inserts; waterproof, doubt it but they keep my hands warm in camp. The other pair I use for skiing and they are by Body Glove or Da Kine...buried in my clothing bug out bag in my Jeep. ...

@AggyGoesOutdoors3 years ago I've got a heap of Solognac gear, the fleece lined abrasion proof waterproof hunting trousers are a standout. Paid £30, they feel like even if they were £130 they would still be great value. 1
@

@Wylder9553 years ago You can check out neoprene gloves, they are made from the same stuff as the fishing waders, that being said i don't really use them that rough and they have survived. 1
@

@jeffrichards51063 years ago I remember those mittens from your earlier videos. I should update my mittens. I have the military extreme cold mittens, they're like wearing boxing gloves not much dexterity when wearing those!😄
@

@SurvivorMetalMan3 years ago Looks like a sweet pair of gloves, and at a damn good price. Excellent review brother!
@

@ColemanOutdoors3 years ago Bernie Sanders: I shoulda gone with the Solognac! 2
@

@ceglass72189 months ago Do you not have the Solognac 900 mittens in your Grunt Proof Merch section?
@

@belendirfornost4383 years ago Hey Randal, excellent video. Thank you! What about more comparing videos of army vs marines stuff? Like the rucks (filbe/ilbe vs army molle), happy suit vs marsh mellow, etc..
@

@TheArendt13 years ago Solognac has some nice camo hunting clothing as well.
@

@screeminreel3 years ago Merry Xmas, Randall. I've purchased a pair from decathlon Canada, and they offered 2 sizes in medium/Large and Xlarge and 2XL. I have size 11 hands and the 2xl is perfect.
When you removed the old crappy liner, did you leave the thumb portion in and just put your wool thumb in?
Thanks for the reviews and take care from Vancouver BC. ... 1
@

@richardgummere843 years ago Thanks for the review, I'll definitely be looking into more products from this company. Do you have any thoughts pro or con about putting a wax or other waterproof material on the US GI mittens? Keep the videos coming. Salute, Brother! ... 1
@

@petitpanierdosier32063 years ago Solognac is the hunter series/brand and it has a very good price/quality ratio
@

@davidstonkus32883 years ago I'm not a grunt but I am a hunter that hates the cold, and living in Canada that's a problem. I'm gonna get me a pair of those. Thanks.
@

@gdoldays99643 years ago I'm gonna post some fully waterproof marigolds...haha great videos 👍🏼
@

@Nick-ti7xk3 years ago Good vid, I like how you actually test gear before you recommend it, unlike most YouTubers. Is there any chance you could review the Snugpak Special forces bivy? So many people recommend it but no one makes a good review to say if it actually works. ... 6
@

@cirocundin3 years ago Try neoprene gloves. Gauntlet style neoprene as used by duck hunters offer a good cold wet MANAGEMENT option. Duck hunting is all about wet and handling boats and decoys will eventually have water most everywhere.

@dougferguson55812 years ago I work in the Arctic. Gets minus 50...would they hold up ?
@

@auroraborealisknives40193 years ago Thanks they look warm. Have you tried the Canadian armed forces mittens. They work pretty good for me. 2
@

@nateminegar69743 years ago I would love to buy these if I could find a source in the USA. Great video as always ... love the reviews and trips.
@

@DGensel3 years ago Great review, I’d love to get these. FYI, your US link is directing to an EU site. I just checked the US site and there is no mention of the 900 series. 2
@

@outdoorswithcam3 years ago Where can I buy these??? The link doesn't work
@

@mjneighb3 years ago Any recommendations on good bungee cords and what length work best for a tarp shelter?
@

@lucemfert46933 years ago If you look for 100% waterproof gloves, look what they use for ice climbing. Gloves like komperdell ice pro.
I had one pair old model and my brother ordered one too but a new model one. Mine was kevlar reinforced on the palm and just resisted a scooter crash with hand reception on the hands. The palm was a bit used up but that's all. So Avery good quality, while the pair of my brother broke on a seal almost days after he received it and on normal use, no stress at all. So I don't know if it is the brand quality that went down or just bad luck on this one, but for the first one it is still going on after years. ...
@

@marsha23 years ago Is there an actual United States website that sell these mittens? I tried your so-called US Site, it is a british site that will not accept an American address.
@

@indycharlie3 years ago Sounds like some great mitts for that price . I have the BD Mitts and the ODR Alti's . But , when it's -10 or worse and I want dry , warm hands . The ODR Mutant Mitt's are the shit . I also have a few pairs of the old ECW military mitts . The Mutants KTA !! Oh BTW , with those Mutant's I have never got wet hands gathering woods , no matter the weather . I didn't know they had any Stores in the U.S. Judging by all the E.U guys I watch who use their stuff . Stock in that Company might be great idea , once the word spreads $$ . Hmm.... Stay safe .. gubs ...
@

@m.k.71993 months ago I'd like to buy a set, but cannot find them in the US. SOLOGNAC Warm hunting mittens only seem to be available in Europe. If anyone knows of a place in the US, let me know. Also, you should put them on your Gruntproof store. ...
@

@tvbox69553 months ago 🤔How did these compare to the extreme cold weather mittens that the military issues?
@

@gerryc19823 months ago looks like they don't sell these anymore. jut came across your video
@

@rtz5493 years ago They make warm, water proof gloves and mitts. These are available on Amazon:
@

@Ronin_Chknhawk3 years ago Cannot find them on decathlon usa web site. :-(
@

@glovelynet2 years ago I beg ya, glovelies would be exploding on the market if the marketing was aimed to hunting.
@

@sylvainbernaers3 years ago the insert is indeed junk. wool gloves inside makes them artcticproof
@

@cantstartafire3 years ago "army size large" Nice, did you see the dudes from the guard in DC... Guard size large is impressive. 1
@

@fiendeng3 years ago sealskinz branded gloves claim to be waterproof. made of neoprene. minimal installation. have used their socks continuously
@

@jkgkjgkijk3 years ago Thinsulate gloves rule! Wtf happened to thinsulate. Gore tex is a gimmick, that shit is a joke. If you have cash, by shearling. Nothing tops shearling, if you have that kind of money. I wear neoprene outers by glacier co. Over zpacks possum down liners. ...
