I use by gloves from work to home, for I am going uphill most of the way, but in the morning I have to go downhill and end up having to use my mittens for my hands get to cold at 10-30 degrees.

Just a comment on the use of gloves and mittens, mittens are best in very cold temperatures, especially when you are inactive.
