ABOUT US
In 2002, Minus33 was created by textile engineers from L. W. Packard & Co. Inc. L. W. Packard has been involved in just about every aspect of the wool industry, and a proud family-owned business since 1916. In 1995, L.W. Packard was selected by Textile World magazine as one of the top ten textile plants in the world.
With so much of our family history rooted in the wool industry, combined with our genuine passion for the outdoors, it only made sense for Minus33 to emerge as a merino wool clothing brand. Minus33 began as a snowmobile brand, and quickly expanded to other outdoor markets, such as hiking, skiing, and hunting due the versatility of our product offering.
WHY MERINO WOOL?
MOISTURE WICKING
Minus33 Merino Wool regulates the amount of moisture on your skin by absorbing any moisture or sweat on your body. Then, the absorbed moisture evaporates out of the fabric into the atmosphere.
INSULATES WHEN WET
Wool will absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy. If you do get wet, wool will insulate you better than cotton or polyester materials.
UV PROTECTION
Don’t worry about sunburn on a sunny day summiting a peak. Lightweight layers have a UPF rating of 25. Midweight and Expedition have a UPF rating of 50+.
RENEWABLE
Merino Wool has a low environmental footprint and naturally returns to the elements. Shear a merino sheep in the morning, and in the afternoon they’re happily nibbling their way towards renewing next season’s clip.

Our weather here in Wisco can change in a flash. From sun to clouds to rain to sleet to hail to snow and back again, all in one afternoon. It has happened and I can confirm it. These gloves are great because they are warm, cover some of the wrist and give you a fair amount of dexterity by not having the finger tips. I have short fingers and bought the large size (on purpose) so just the tips of my fingers are exposed. The wool keeps my digits warm in most weather. Once it dips down past freezing, I switch to full-fingered gloves.These are not itchy at all, and are thick enough to be warm. They aren't so thick that they cause issues with dexterity though. It's kind of a sweet spot and these work well. I like them. They were an awesome Christmas gift from my family.

Large fits large for men. I have a women's large hand so I would order Medium for me. Thickness does not interfere with typing on laptop. Gives me the warmth I need typing in winter months.

I love these gloves, I've worn them a ton this winter so far. If its below -10, or if its windy, ill typically wear a pair of glove liners that work with touchscreens under these ones, that way your hand stays warm and you can still use your phone. Highly recommend, worth the cost

Wool makes me itch. But these Merino wool ones (although a bit rougher in texture than say cotton) do not itch me. The thing I really like about these, compared to others, is the SLEEVE length is long. With flannel shirts, the arms are always too long, so you roll them up 1 cuff turn, making them actually an inch or so above where they would normally be. So the normal fingerless gloves do NOT go past the bottom of your hands, leaving 1-2 inces of bare skin. But these have about 2-3 inces down the wrist, and DO go under my flannel long sleeves. Very nice.

I've tried several kinds of fingerless gloves, and these are the best I've found. Good materials, warm to wear. Recommended! But, this is such a small category that there is clearly progress to be made.Normal gloves are fitted to human hands, right? There's a significant taper/curve from the inner fingers to the pinky. Also, the pinky is considerably shorter than the other fingers, although this varies somewhat. These gloves are very well made, but they've gone for manufacturing ease rather than wearability. The shape is symmetrical and blocky, with the fingers all starting in a straight line, as if we were all Minecraft characters with square hands. Also, the pinky seems objectively too long, and on my hand extends past the end of the finger, which kinda defeats the purposeOnce I figured out to roll down the pinky (don't cut, or they'll unravel!), and just accept the bagginess on the outside edge of the hand, they're comfortable and warm, and significantly better than several cheaper kinds that I've tried. So, they're probably still best of breed, and I recommend them. But... PEOPLE DON'T HAVE SQUARE HANDS. SO DON'T MAKE SQUARE GLOVES. Please. ;-)

I love fingerless gloves for doing work around the yard and outside of the house during the colder months and these gloves are fantastic! For the price I find them to be a good value for the quality of the wool. While lighter weight than some other fingerless wool gloves, these do a great job of keeping my hands and wrists nice and toasty. The fit (large) was also perfect and I appreciated the various color options to choose from. 10/10!

Me gustan, ya tenía otros de la misma marca, dan buen calor. Lo malo: por su material empiezan a "acusar uso" muy rápido, pequeños hilos se empiezan a levantar y pues pareciera que llevas 5 años con ellos cuando apenas tienes un par de semanas.

Los guantes son muy cómodos y calientan muy bien las manos, justo como esperaba y lo describe el producto. Sin embargo, como se observa en las fotos, la calidad del tejido no es la mejor y no cumple para el precio que se paga por el producto.

I wear my gloves year round to help lessen the painful neuropathy in my hands that I live with all the time due to a spinal cord injury. The continuous warmth they provide helps the blood circulation to my hands and makes my chronic pain more tolerable, probably by at least 2 pain levels. They’ve held up very well and are perfect size and comfortable. I can buy cheaper gloves that don’t work as well, for me, but I can wear these much longer, are warmer, and are a better and softer fit than the cheaper gloves as well. They also hand wash and air dry pretty nicely. I’d say the material and workmanship is good quality. I don’t think they are meant to be used as heavy work gloves more than any other wool glove, but they are perfect for just keeping your hands comfortable and warm and being able to use your phone at the same time, good for driving on a cold morning, things like that, as long as you aren’t doing something that would naturally beat them up.
