Finally got round to using these as intended and I must I am not disappointed with them. They fit me very well which I know can be hit and miss as everyone’s hand are different sizes. Nice, comfortable and warm. First rate all round.
thrilled to hear you have found the perfect gloves for the winter :D Happy winter shooting Ian!
The markoff pro 2.0 gloves are very well designed. Had them on in temperatures of a couple degrees below/ above zero and they were more than adequate when moving around. Had them on also sitting in a hide for 5 hrs in the same temperatures and they didn’t perform so well after a couple of hours. But that’s what you get from being stationary for a few hours. I’m going to buy the liners as they will make a great addition to the gloves and make them more versatile. I think the other heavier gloves and mittens would be too extreme for the moderate winters I have. I do love the options you have with layering system, so if the liners don’t work out for sitting in the hide, I can always go for the mittens and have that ultimate comfort !. Maybe I might need extreme !.
Probably the best pair of gloves I have owned. I actually look forward to cold weather so that I can wear them when outside 😃
The gloves are great. I did wonder if I might have been better ordering size M rather than L since I find there is half a centimetre of space in front of my finger tips. Its hard to know if a size M might be just a bit tight? I was tempted to also order a size M pair but I haven't found this to be much of a problem. Also, it would allow me to use a thin liner glove on occasions when I am wearing the gloves and not using cameras. But I am glad I got them and amazingly was able to use them the very day after they arrived - we had 6 to 8 inches of snow. How lucky is that!
I’ve had my gloves for a couple of weeks now & worn them while out in around freezing temp’s, they are warm, comfortable & since I got used the holes in the fingers are a great addition to wondering around photographing birds in the cold. The only thing I don’t like is the metal Vallerret badge on the back of the gloves.
Good job Vallerret I should have bought a pair ages ago.
Lovely gloves, warm, snug fit but comfortable, superb design and features, high quality materials. Excellent in every way, have been out more because I have them to use
I really love the gloves but they are too small. Is it ok to return them for a larger size even though I have had them for a couple of weeks? I haven't been wearing them.

Nice and warm but the movebility of the indexfinger and thumb could be better. I guess that's due to the fact that these gloves are made for cold weather and thus have to be thicker.
Greets, Dirk
pro: Good quality materials, fit snugly, good camera “fingerwork”
cons:
1 the wrist cuffs could be a 2 cm longer imho.
2 Size help guide helps you choose a too small size, better order a larger size...or else they send you the right size very quickly (thanks guy’s)
Zipper opens quickly, but closing the zipper took some thinking how to do this properly;
Found out that, when closing up and at the the moment the zip passes the indexfinger, you better try spread the 4 fingers wide in order to get some tension on the open part of the zipper, between the indexfinger and the thumb-base and only than, pull down the zipper all the way to close. Easy peezy!
Keep up the good work!
Ordered the women’s gloves. So far so good. They seem comfortable and they are a good fit. Very happy
Love these gloves!
I have very small hands and I've been looking for ages for a pair of photography gloves that didn't make me look and feel like Edward Scissorhands. This is the first style I've found that come in XS size and not only did they fit, they were even a bit snug!
They loosened nicely after a few wears though and I can still fit a pair of merino liners underneath, so I'd say that the size guide is spot on.
When I first unpacked them my heart sank though, as I thought that the layer of the grippy palm print was peeling away. However on looking closer and checking the photos on the website I realised that was the pattern style! D'oh! (Not sure I'm too keen on that aspect though; it does look a bit shabby at first glance. )
As a few other reviews have mentioned, I found that initially it was a bit of a struggle to make the magnets stick properly to keep the finger and thumb flipped back, but again, this loosened up once I'd worn them a few times and they tend to stick open properly now.
All in all a great glove, perfect for small hands, and they keep my hands nice and toasty when I'm out with my camera. I also wear them when I'm just out for a walk; they don't look too 'clunky' and I find it's handy to be able to check my phone without having to remove my gloves.
Just tried my new liners and they are super thin and very warm. So glad I got these, no more cold hands when I’m out making images.
J'avais commandé des gants trop petits, je les ai renvoyés et une semaine après, j'avais les nouveaux gants! Service après-vente pro et rapide. Gants de bonne qualité. Merci
I can't tell you how many times I've had to quit shooting because my fingers were frozen. I got the mitts because I like to have pocket heaters inside. I fly drones in -30C temps and hands are ALWAYS a problem. This is such an amazing product for a number of obvious reasons and the odd little feature like the wrist straps that help from dropping your mitts in a snowbank. Love it!
Stoked to hear you're loving our mitten Randy!
Only toasty warm hands from now on and happy winter shooting :D
Great quality... Sized up for the perfect fit. Just waiting for the snow now, to give them a real test
Brilliant quality and performance. Warm hands and still able to control the camera. The size, using the sizing guide, was spot on.
These gloves are excellent quality, they take a bit of getting used to as I am not used to the fingertip reveal. Third time out with them and I am getting used to them and pressing the right controls and buttons. Previously I was all fingers and thumbs!
Super nice beanie and a cool feature. Takes a bit to get used to but after a while you don’t want to miss it.
These are very good quality gloves. So far I have used them in low temperature and snow conditions for longer time. When worn in cold hands, they take some time to provide that warm feeling but when it eventually does, it is quite comfortable and has overall excellent performance.
I am very happy with the gloves and with the service.
My hands are never cold anymore and they fit like a glove.
