These gloves are exactly what I needed. I love my Markhof Pro V3, which fit perfectly and always keep my hands warm, but when shooting street photography, I often use my phone— and that’s where the Djuke gloves take things to perfection. I was shooting in Prague on chilly mornings with temperatures around -2°C, and even though they are designed for mild winter, my hands never felt cold.

Their main advantage is that they are so thin that you often don’t even need to use the finger cap removal feature, as you can operate many camera functions while wearing them. And the best part? Although it’s advertised that only the thumb and index finger have a touchscreen-compatible layer, on my iPhone, every single finger works! 😊 And it works flawlessly. Since I use my phone a lot while moving around the city, this is the best feature for me!

Grerat gloves for Photography.Recently tested on a trip to the arctic circle in Norway. .

Bought for a trip to Iceland. I also bought liners to make sure I was warm. These are very well made with a space for hand warmers. Also thumb and forefinger have magnets to ensure the glove tips stay open and out of the way. Grips on palm to ensure good grip of camera. My only comment is that I wish I had had them sooner to break them in. Also having the liner same size as glove meant they felt very tight. Thinking that maybe should have gone up a size in the glove. They did the job though although feeling tight coldest night was -14 c.

I have tried two versions of the Markhof gloves and they only worked around 32° for me, a 75 year old photographer who tries to photograph several times a week during the winter. A liner did help to add some warmth. This winter I decided to give the Skadi Mitts a try and I did get to try them in 5-20° weather. I was able to shoot for an hour each session without freezing fingers! They take some getting used to and I would like to see the zipper portion open more plus bigger thumbholes. I'm happy to be prepared for next winter!

Very happy with my Gloves. Excellent quality and fit me well. My only suggestion would be to add a small loop at the base of the wrist so it would be easier to pull the glove in place . Thanks

At last I was able to find mittens that are easy to open without removing and keep my hands warm. Every little detail is thought out completely. Way to go!

Warm and comfortable

good but expensive

I love these Hatchet Gloves!
A perfect fit, made with love, from top quality materials.
If you want a pair of gloves that are functional, stylish and will probably last you years, look no further than these gloves.

Great

The new version (V3) of the Markhof Pro is definitely worth recommending. The redesigned fingertip opening system is more convenient, and in my opinion, the gloves are warmer than the previous model. The only downside, in my view, is the stiff metal logo on the back of the glove.

Warm photographic mittens, the Alta Arctic Mitt are warm mittens designed for photography. A key advantage is the opening system; however, in my opinion, the zipper endings are too short and slippery, making them difficult to grasp while wearing gloves. I recommend them for freezing conditions.

Stiching broke and gloves ripped on third wearing

I ordered the Djuke gloves because I wanted a glove that did double duty: an everyday glove for around town and a photography glove. The Djuke gloves meet both my needs.

Features-wise, they work great. The magnets are strong enough to keep the finger caps out of the way. The capacitance touch also works well for using a phone or my car’s touchscreen (works on my camera’s touchscreen too, but the LCD buttons are too small to select). The merino wool keeps my hands warm down to about 25 degrees Fahrenheit/4 degrees Celsius, even with the finger caps off while I’m shooting (on windier or colder days, the caps stay off just long enough for the shot). The leather feels soft out of the box; this allows for a lot of flexibility in the glove. I keep the cuffs at the wider setting, making it easier for me to pull the gloves on and off. I’m able to use these with a Peak Design Clutch attached to my camera. By the way, I’m not a fan of the cold, and the Djuke gloves keep my hands warm while doing urban, street, and nature photography.

I noticed that the gloves feel slick when driving; my steering wheel is also leather-wrapped. A recent application of leather conditioner seemed to help add some tackiness, but I’m not sure if this is the glove or the steering wheel. This has not been an issue when using the gloves for photography, though.

I initially ordered a pair in XL, based on the same size Markhof V2 that I purchased the prior year. The Djuke XL were just a bit tight, so I exchanged them for XXL right before Christmas (Dec 23). Denisa was absolutely fantastic and helpful throughout the entire exchange process. I had the new gloves on Dec 30, during the busiest shipping time of the year. Denisa demonstrated first class customer service!

Finally socks that keep my feet warm. I have cold feet very fast. These socks really make a difference for me. They are also comfortable and soft. No itchy feeling or what so ever.

Markhof Pro V3 Photography Glove

Bought these for photography, quick delivery. Gloves very warm and feel comfortable to wear. Great having the fingers and thumbs to peel back to operate the camera

Still Waiting to be used in a few days. Ask me later.

I've had these gloves for roughly a month at the time of writing this review. Good quality and fits well. However due to no fault of the gloves themselves they aren't warm enough at times. That's mainly my fault, as I have bad blood circulation in my fingers, and it's tough getting them to stay warm.
In the future I'm definitely going to look into the mittens Vallerret sells as the quality of this pair has convinced me to shop here again. For now I'll use this pair and maybe get a heated glove liner to hold me over until next winter.

Great gloves. Fit perfectly. Soft and warm, easy to use with camera.

Since I am using my Milford gloves, I can manipulate my gear more safely and I feel less clumsy. Above all, my hands are warm ! I am very happy with my purchase.

Außenhandschuhe sind sehr gut, durchdacht und funktionell. Innenhandschuhe sind an der Kleineingerseite zu kurz. Deshalb ist der Handschuh schräg und faltig, was nicht schön ist.

I used the gloves during a trip to Antarctica, - i very much apprechiated the tight grip on my camera (Nikon Z6II)and the ease how you can get the fingertips out. In a very windy environment I would recommend inner liners that i also bought from Valleret. Overall warm hands, therefore happy phototaking in wet environment around 0 C

I used the gloves on a trip to Norway and they were super comfortable to wear. I ve put some hand warmers in the small pockets to get even more warmth to my fingers. The system with the zipper worked very well for me giving me the freedom that I need to take photos without frozen hands.

Enjoying a very mild winter, I found the Pro Liners to be an excellent alternative to my usual Milford gloves. The fact that any time the cold starts to bite, I can combine them and keep on (which is why I got them) makes them one of my best purchases this year.
