Chopper mittens = motorcycle gloves?  Wonder where I'd get them?  Ebay?

I'm 50% Scandinavian, 50% eastern European - not warm places!  I 
haven't noticed feeling cold (body) when my fingers get cold.  I am 
careful to wear a warm hat when it's that cold out there.

I've got some Thinsulate lined gloves - they're nice leather gloves 
and I didn't want to wreck them using them as work gloves.  I will 
look for Thinsulate lined work gloves, though - they must make them.
