Many and varied styles and material available. Those with tactile tips so you can use your phone or GPS without removing the gloves are a good choice. My own gloves by The North Face are about 8, possibly 10 years old, with tactile index and middle fingers and soft fleecy inner, drawstring and toggle at wrist. I will need to find them before Easter as that is when the mornings start to get very nippy. Photographers, of which I am often a member of the fraternity, have flip up fleecy inners and mitt outers. Really practical for fiddling around with attaching cable releases, changing film or lenses and even grabbing zippers — next to impossible with mitts. So must pull them forward and flip them up. I think MacPac makes these, as does Berghaus.
