Winter Trapping/Snaring Gloves
I'm having a tough time with finding a nice pair of winter work gloves. I want a rubber palm glove that's warm but my favourite gloves keep getting pulled off the shelf. I think maybe it was Atlas gloves that's made them, they had two pairs, a rubber palm camo glove and a rubber palm fluro green fuzzy sub zero glove, both are off the market.
I need the rubber palm glove for grip.
Must surely be something out there that is both supple and warm enough. Ideally I need two different gloves, something good for -10 C and something that can work in -40 C.

Marty, I’ve found a couple pairs last year at Peavey mart that suited my needs similar to what you described.

Try ULine. They carry some cold weather working gloves.
Hands will get cold quicker in gloves at -40. Get a good pair of -10 gloves and wear a pair of gauntlets over the gloves between sets.

Them ice ninjas look like a good glove. Are they warm enough in that record cold for those record days? Had my second best day of my kiyute career and she was down to -38 C. I believe my hands were very cold that day. My hands are kinda ratchet so I need a glove that is both soft and warm, and need that rubber palm for grip.

Or you could keep your hands warm by letting us come take dogs out of snares while you sit in the truck .. split em 50/50 ..k?
So far Ive never caught enough in a day that cold hands are a problem , I wear mitts and take em on and off to reset ..

Hey Marty , you could always have Marilyn keep your hands warm . Ha , Ha . But on the serious side I just picked up two pairs of Ninja gloves . The fleece inside looks good & will be better than the non insulated rubber palm hyflex I normally use . When it got too cold I wore my gauntlets over them which worked for checking sets but you're still putting on & off gauntlets . Better than freezing fingers which I have trouble with due to passed exposure . I hope the ninja's will be better all around .

Marty I came across a pair of diving glove a couple of years ago that I wear when trapping rat in the winter. Have a rubber neoprene palm that if flexible enough to set conibears all day long. Had my hands in the water pulling rats out of pushups and never got cold. Got hit with a cold snap and temp dropped below -40, spent the day pulling traps and all I added was a pair of those light white cotton gloves inside the neoprenes and was quite comfortable. Very comfortable and hands don’t get sore and tired. I think I have the brand and company I got them from somewhere in the shop, will find it and let you know.

I think you should give them a try. I find them very warm in the field in 40 below. The fleece inside is really nice.
