So many different brands and styles. Personally, I won't wear winter gloves if they are not fleece. When glove style not necessary (like snow shovelling) I like mitts.

Not cheap, but if it is too cold to be out with these gloves... it's probably to cold to be outside.

I use some cheap huntworth gloves- one size too big(I hate tight gloves). I have those zippo warmers burning and or the disposable handwarmers. Keep in mind, if your core is warm, the extremities are typically warm as well. I have also deployed the Milwaukee heated sweatshirt as my second layer underneath. That supplemental heat works awesome to keep the core warm and gives you that bit of physiological help to stay out a little longer.

FYI Firstlite has a military/LEO/federal employee discount. Might be worth looking into. I know a law enforcement officer that gets half off there.

I have the First Lite Grizzly as well, they are toasty and I love them. I picked them up on sale at Milarm.
The big seller for me on these was that they actually fit my hands very well. I like a snug fitting glove and have smallish hands, and I usually find that I'm between sizes when it comes to gloves. The First Lite's were perfect.

I like the white cotton gloves, 3 fingered mitts if it is too cold.

Depends on what you are looking for and how cold it's going to be. I don't think a glove can be considered warm. North face Himalaya mitts, take them off to shoot, can wear wool gloves underneath on the trigger hand. I have been stand hunting in -40 with these things and been fine. $180 when I got them a few years ago.

Definitely get a pair of Grizzly Gloves from First Lite. They are insanity!

The Bob Dale Ski Glove from Cabelas, been using them for years and still impressed every November! Cant beat the price either for that high level of Thinsulate lining

I usually wear a pair of deerskin gloves for tree-climbing, because they are grippy and have good dexterity, but they get pretty chewed up from the bark. I've sometimes taken to wearing rawhide ones for when I'm doing tree stuff, and then swap them out once I'm settled in my stand...

I have always worn leather dress gloves with a knitted wool liner. (Has to be wool to be warm). They are very warm but not at all bulky. I even use these riding the quad but I generally don't have a problem with cold hands. When it gets to minus 40 I switch to leather mitts with wool liners.
