Will the index finger actually fit inside my trigger guard?
Yes. The trigger finger wall is 2.4mm and pre-curved, and it cleared the trigger guards on every bolt-action rifle and shotgun we tried without bunching or brushing the trigger. It also works well with a wrist-strap bow release.
Is the outer fabric noisy?
No. The outer is a brushed softshell, not slick nylon. In our 18-inch acoustic check, drawing a bow and shouldering a rifle made no audible swish.
Does the fleece liner pull out when my hands are damp?
No. The liner is stitch-locked at the fingertips. We pulled each glove off 25 times in a row with sweaty hands and the liner never moved.
Are they truly waterproof?
They use a 10,000mm waterproof, windproof TPU membrane between the shell and liner. After 5 minutes with the palms in 33°F slush water, the liners were dry. They're waterproof for sleet, wet snow, and frosty metal, but not meant for full submersion above the cuff.
Do they run small? Should I size up?
They fit close across the knuckles, which helps dexterity. If you're between sizes, size up for a small warm air pocket at the fingertips. If the fit is off, we'll swap sizes within 30 days.
Does the touchscreen work through a screen protector?
Yes. The conductive thumb and index tips worked on the first tap through a tempered-glass protector on an iPhone in our testing, including pinch-to-zoom on OnX Hunt.
