I received my RockBros bar mitts yesterday, and couldn’t want to try them out. Went out for 1.6 hours, temperature was 0C for the whole ride and a bit damp. Normally I would have worn my wool gloves + lobster overgloves, and still had numb hands after 45-60min. With the bar mitts, I wore just the wool gloves, and my hands were absolutely perfect the whole time, didn’t get cold at all. They look dorky as heck, but I’ll gladly trade that in exchange for actually being able to feel my hands (and not possibly causing more nerve damage than I already have). They cost me 30€, which is less than half of the Giro winter gloves I was thinking of getting. You can pry these things from my warm, dead hands.
