Gants Rho

I was looking to upgrade to a higher quality glove for cold weather. After some research, what I decided to go for was a separate liner and glove combination. The balance I was striving for was an outer glove that was relatively thin, form-fitting, and waterproof, but did not sacrifice to much with regard to warmth. These Rho gloves were by far my favorite choice for a liner. I decided on the M size because wearing them with my choice of outer gloves I found the liner would come off together with the outer glove perfectly. The outer gloves I purchased were SealSkinz DragonEye's. They are also very form fitting and I was concerned that a liner, even the thinnest, would increase the bulk and limit dexterity. Not the case with the Rho's. Very thin. I don't really use the Rho's without my outer gloves, but I found that the sensor pads are somewhat awkward though still functional. The senors are a flat stiff material positioned more on the pad of the thumb and pointer finger, not the tips of the finger. It takes a little getting use to but you can use the gloves for typing on a phone. After 3 months (Dec-Feb) of wear in Minnesota the fabric began to deteriorate at the tip of one of the fingers. I unfortunately lost one of the Rho gloves in February so I can not give a now 8 month review to see how the deterioration wold have progressed. I contacted Arc'Teryx to see if I could get a single glove replacement. As I expected they could not since I bought them at a local REI store, but they provided me a discount code to purchase a new pair. Their customer service is amazing by the way. I love the style and fit of all Arc'Teryx's products. I own Solano and Cerium LT Hoody puff jacket.

These are versatile gloves but I can't use them alone below 0-5 degrees. Work well when it's raining too. I like these for running, and for using as liners when it's colder. Great as a spare pair of liners in the bag.

J'utilise ces gants tout l'hiver pour mes sorties course à pied et elles font parfaitement le job. Le tissu est bien souple et chaud. Et quand l'effort est intense, je n'ai pas à les enlever, ce qui me fait dire qu'elles évacuent très bien la chaleur. Qui plus est, le côté tactile est très pratique puisque j'arrive même à utiliser ma montre Suunto en mode tactile !

Got these mid winter just before the cold spell in Toronto. -36C wind chill. These were great for a liner with the Alpha AR glove and a pair of lobster mittens I have. During the warm up about 2C these are not good as stand alone. I would only use as stand alone at about 6 C and warmer with light wind as the wind goes right through them. Unfortunately they will not fit under the Alpha MX glove as that fit is to snug.

fin et léger c'est un très bon sous gant et peut servir de gant par temps frais.

Grandson specified these gloves as what he wanted. When he opened the box, he was very pleased to get them.

My first Arcteryk purchase. Like their stuff, just out of my budget on most things. Two great things about these gloves: 1. The hand of the fabric is luxurious 2. The fit of the pattern is superior to any liner i have ever owned. Generally, this is the only layer I need living in the mid-west. Fortunately, these globes match my puffy coat. Great product.

It was destroyed less than 6 months after I bought those gloves. It was a surprise from Arc'teryx.

Had these gloves for quite a while now, use them primarily for running as a single layer but also as an additional liner for mittens. So far no problems with stitching at all, sensor pads have stayed put and work as well as can be expected. I don't have to take off my gloves to check my apple watch or adjust the settings. I had a pair of the old Phase SL gloves which I love, though they were less durable than these they were also a bit lighter and less warm. I would love if they offered those again, but these are also excellent and just a tiny bit warmer

I used it on its own while running especially when am still warming up & as a liner with other Arcteryx gloves plus as a liner for cheap ski gloves which were making my hands so cold and the RHO came to rescue, so I like the flexibility it gives.

J'ai obtenu une 2e paire via le service de garantie Arctery'x qui s'est elle aussi usée prématurément. Plusieurs déchirures au niveau des doigts prinicipalement. Pas fidèle à la qualité et haut de gamme que je connais d'Arcteryx. Sinon dans les premières semaines d'utilisation, les gants remplissent bien leur mandat autant durant le sport que l'utilisation quotidienne.

These gloves are just what you need for a liner with a good amount of warmth and wicking (for my running) but the stitching is very weak and came apart the first time I put them on. A pity because they are just what I needed.

I have had a pair of these gloves for about 6 weeks now. The touch screen feature works maybe 10% of the time---max.

I got these gloves hoping to have a breathable, sweat-wicking glove to put under my lithic gloves (size XL) for skiing and hiking, or for on their own for higher intensity running. The fabric is soft, supple, and quite warm for the thickness. After a few minutes of running, the gloves are incredible at self-regulating a warm, but not too balmy temperature for runs within the high 20s to mid 40s. Underneath the lithic, the sized large fits greats. Helps add an extra layer of warmth and sweat management. The touchscreen material is quite good, but the cut of the piece on the thumb could be a little more precise. There is a slight learning curve for more subtle actions on a phone, such as texting. My biggest complaint is the size. I got a sized large assuming that my slight volume and space in my lithic gloves would translate well into a large. My middle and ring finger fit great, but my pinky is too small for the glove, and my index finger has more space in this glove than in the larger sized lithic. I am able to pull down the fabric to make the gloves fit better, but it certainly not a seamless, perfect fit.
