>If I'm paddleing, and my hands will be staying dry, I don't usually wear >gloves until the temperature/wind chill is close to freezing. I have no difficulty with cold hands without gloves even down to the mid 30s so long as I am working. However, restriction of circulation seems to be a factor. If a drysuit gasket is too tight and/or squeezing down on the layers below, or there is a too tight velcro strap on the glove, then they will begin to feel painfully cold. Often a simple rearrangement of the layers or some other loosening is all I need to do.
