Jim,  
Heres the link [http://www.carhartt.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10101&storeId=10051&productId=111795&langId=-1&categoryId=10904](http://www.carhartt.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10101&storeId=10051&productId=111795&langId=-1&categoryId=10904)

They are bulkier than like a mechanics glove, but there going to be because of the insulation. They are the thinnest insulated gloves I have bought yet, and I can still turn wrenches, start nuts on bolts, etc … And will be able to still “feel” with them.

I work outside with water everyday running Acid Mine Water Drainage Plants (we treat the water out of adandoned coal mines & treat it for the rivers, streams, etc.) … And winters are harsh since cold & water don’t mix well. These are my first pair of “waterproof” so we will see how they work. During our cleanouts and such are super sloppy and wet jobs, and suck in the winter.

I got the traditional “carhartt brown & black” color, and they seem like a nice glove so far … but pricey at $40 bucks. If they keep my hands warm & dry there worth every penny!!
