I used a pair of Endura neoprene gloves for a winter. Wasn't that impressed. Fine between 6-12 degrees but rubbish outwith that. Also awful if you need to take them off and put them back on again.
Neoprene glove are generally designed for when it's raining. They act like a wetsuit and trap a (warm) layer of water between your skin and the gloves.
If it wasn't raining for the whole of your winter then you probably made the wrong choice in wearing them.
