yes is camelback gloves
just bought myself a pair of hatch operator shorty's in green..
Read many many good things about them so looking forward to receiving them.
almost bought a pair of ironclad Cold gear gloves but only read that there no good for cold weather..
was curious about the same thing, guess thats why you don't see artic soldiers with oakley handwear.
always thought the oaks could survive mountain/alpine terrain though ?
does anyone have first hand experience if the oaks aren't warm in winter/cold weather ?
would the assault gloves from wiley or blackhawk be better ?

No gloves like that are warm. You can pick a good warm glove (ie look for some leather with tinsulate or similar) or a thin glove where you can keep your fine agility.
Also, when it's cold, as in so cold that you have to cover your hands, wear mittens. And since you wear mittens when it's cold, drill with them. Because if you can change a mag in 4 seconds with mittens, you sure as hell can do it quicker with a thin 5 finger glove.
My 2 cents, and that's how I roll yo.
thats fair enough, perhaps they'd make one b/c there isnt a product out there yet
or if anything, troopers would wear a liner INSIDE an assault glove....whether there's no layer built in, they can just add one in
wonder if any members have some input also if they're from areas with some snow

can someone identify the gloves this operator utilizes?

i think that Blackhawk gloves are much better for the cold. i often use Blackhawk SOLAG HD Gloves with NOMEX

My Petzl Cordex gloves sorta suck. If you buy a pair, buy the Cordex Plus (medium-weight).
Now I've got another pair of goddamn fingerless gloves. Stupid fingertips wore out in 2 months of climbing, rappelling, etc.
Just picked up some blk Oakleys last week, work great so far. I got an XL so that theres room to fit thin gloves on underneath for cold weather because these gloves are strictly warm weather kit.
If you really want to have "assault" gloves or whatever they're called, and have 'em warm (always a relative term), get some liner gloves to wear underneath them (assuming they'll fit underneath).
