The Black Diamond Super HeavyWeight ScreenTap Gloves showing the goat-leather palm patch and the U|R Powered material on the inner fingers. Again, the materials on the palm and fingers enhance the grip, allowing me to stay firm on the bars and shifters without a problem. Just for fun, I tested them on a few 35 to 45 F (1 to 7 C) fat-bike rides and found them to be warm enough unless the wind kicked up. Light flurries and mild breezes are no problem at all, but a wind-blown heavy squall is definitely sub-optimal for keeping the gloves dry and the weather out. Below 10 F (-12 C), I usually start my run with a liner or shell which I then remove after about 30 minutes once I fully warm up. The wicking material lining as well as the DWR treatment mitigate the resulting potential for chill well, however, and they dry within a few hours once I take them off at the end of the run. These gloves are somewhat less breathable than comparable fleece gloves due to the leather palm. Despite the manufacturer’s recommendation of use in temperatures between 21 and 40 F (-6 to 4 C), I found that anything above 30 F while running results in a fair amount of hand sweating after about 30 minutes. I am pleasantly surprised by how low of a temperature I am able to use these gloves for trail running without needing a liner or shell on calm, dry days. The Black Diamond Super HeavyWeight ScreenTap Gloves. This glove does indeed allow me to use my cell-phone screen as long as actual typing isn’t involved-fat fingers and small letters render voice text much more efficient. I also notice very little wear despite a couple months of near-daily use. The goat-leather palm and 305-gram U|R Powered material lining each of the fingers work well for gripping the leash, cell phone, and steering wheel. On the casual-use side, I find them perfect for dog walks and school commutes in temperatures ranging from 25 to 45 degrees Fahrenheit (-4 to 7 degrees Celsius).

They are listed in their Liner Series Gloves category and weigh approximately 64 grams per pair (2.25 ounces), but you’d need a fairly voluminous shell mitten or glove to fit over the top. If Black Diamond made this material into a lounge jogger and hoody set, I’d buy two.
