There's something I don't understand about fingerless gloves. They're advertised as useful in cold weather, but fingers feel the cold sooner than palms do.

I never understood the fingerless gloves, except for maybe cycles? Or to look cool. I don't see them for Winter wear. Even with my winter gloves on, my fingers still freeze. I switched to mittens this Winter which made a difference, but not a huge one.

They're for any winter activity requiring nimbleness beyond the scope of regular gloves, e.g., money handling or the operation of any machinery, cameras, electronics, surgical devices, firearms, etc. The key is to size up, so you can comfortably retract your fingers like a turtle into its shell. It was a necessity for me a lifetime ago. Idle hands may be the devil's playthings, but it's the overactive fingers you really need to ask yourself about.

Now I live in warmer climes, I do different activities.

I cannot tell you you're wrong. That's how I know what my search history on AMZN should be. HOWEVER, and I will not name names or throw anyone under the bus, but my friend was over yesterday to go through some papers with me, and he had his 13 year old son with him, who was using my laptop to watch YT videos, and apparently he saw a short(?) regarding the item in question, and went over to AMZN to see if it they were real, and they are. I was still logged into AMZN when he was online and this is how it showed up on my front page today. There are lessons here, more for me, being log out, which I routinely do, however yesterday was the exception. I wasn't sure what time they were coming over, they just showed up. We laughed about it, however I did notice later he cleared my history as well, so I'm not sure of all the places he visited...he's a cool kid, I'm not worried, save for the items AMZN is now going to push my way.

Have you ordered your pair yet?

And I checked out your websites. I really like your work.

We should have a little survey. We all login into AMNZ and screen capture our opening page and post here. ߘ

Is it available on AMZN? Nothing like a little canned tree rat for dinner!

Could be their algorithm noticed you were ordering gluten-free foods. "You may also like . . ."

I prefer my Yeti fresh, not canned. With canned you lose a lot of the essence of the Yeti. I'm picky that way....

I don't trust battery operated cleaning supplies. (random, I know, but I needed to say it)

Apparently, AMZN heard my concerns. My homepage is completely different. None of the items I purchased or searched are on there, only a full page of links for everything available. I did update my computer yesterday to a new OS, I wonder if that's the issue.
