I can confirm these; http://www.jofama.se/snowmobile_wear/product_details.php?lang=6&cid=2&id=60 to be toasty.
In temperatures hovering just below freezing on a blustery coastal run they were really warm. To be fair I had a pair of Merino liners on as well, due to my freakishly poor circulation.
It did take a while to get my fingers warm but once the blood got to them they stayed warm.
There is a loss of dexterity especially with STI'S but its a trade off Im happy with if it means I can feel my digits afters five hours in the saddle. The cordura on the front, looks like it might put up a decent fight with the rain too which is nice. The palm and fingers are entirely rubber so there's good purchase when holding on.
I likes them. Not sure how they'd do at temperatures way below freezing like we've had over the last few weeks but so far so good.
