Have you guys had problems with the heated gloves quitting working, particularly the clutch hand? That's what has always kept me from getting gloves.

Thats suppose to be a non issue now due to a new design of the heating element. but no, ive never had an issue with that.

heated jacket and gloves are definitely the way to go.  But the initial cost is a big hurdle.  Also, the PacificNW just doesn't get that cold.  It would dig below 30 just a handful of days a year.
