If you a fan of fingerless gloves.

The wife put me in to these, British made in Cornwall, from a company called turtle doves
Made from recycled Cashmere £25 inc the post, got to be probably one of the cheapest pairs of stalking gloves I’ve ever bought!

They ought to get better manufacturing procedures in place with that many faulty socks

Cashmere and merino wool still beat synthetics for the right layer. Thee would be good with lightweight camo gloves over the top. Experimenting as currently freezing to death whist night foxing. My only ND’s into the ground have been with gloves on…

All joking aside, in very cold weather gloves can cause massive issues for fingers getting too cold especially when carrying cold lumps of metal.
When I used to do ice climbing we had two types of glove set up - one thinner type which was waterproof and had neoprene on the back of the hand / fingers for protection, for ‘warmer’ climbs, and for the really cold days we used two sets of gloves, with an outer waterproof set of mittens / lobster claw type gloves on wrist leashes, and an inner set of thinsulate type gloves.

The challenge was the warmer you hands were the less dexterity you had to handle gear, so often we traded that warmth, knowing that after each pitch our hands would be frozen.

For stalking, if I was to be a highseat user then I would go for thick mitts with a flipable section for fingers, but as I am a walking stalker, I use the sealskinz gloves with flippable finger and thumb and these work just fine (so long as I don’t leave them in the truck to get ice cold before an early morning stalk!!!)

If you have to wear fingered or mittens style gloves in a high seat, really you need to man up and grow a pair

At least being south of the wall in tropical Norfolk even during beast of the East when I had 2 foot of snow down here I still wore fingerless gloves while driving a quad

As has been said, cashmere then merino for underlayers, there is nothing better
