Now that it's actually cold here (sub-20 degrees) these are a godsend.

That is one helluva snow wheeling machine!!!
Bar mitts are great... they mean I needed to order bar-end brake levers, new brake cable / housing and bar tape. Plus I was able to get a new 11 in 1 Park Tools hex wrench thingy.
$52.13
God bless NashBar.

Stiff shoes to combat fixed-gear-foot. I had no idea pushing down the pedals on my new fixie would be so hard on my feet.
Change of plans. The bullhorn style bar mitts just don't attach as well as I'd like. Will return the previous order and.......
Got new drop bars coming, hood style brakes, new stem, new brake cable / hosing and bar tape as well as some black spacers to complete the black and white front end look. Also, returning the bullhorn mitts and switching to the drop bar mitts (which are on Amazon for only $50 so I'll save $25).

Still - God bless Nashbar.
Although their choice of UPS Surepost leaves much to be desired.
those are as insane as these Dogwood Designs pogies. how warm are they? My Moose Mitts are good for an additional 20 degrees of warmth.
I only wear a liner glove with those and only when it's below 10 degrees. If it's above 10 degrees I actually don't wear gloves with those and usually have at least one of the vents open. The Dogwood pogies are ok but they don't have vents and, to be honest, are way too warm. The goal is to keep the cold and wind out, not stay warm. My hands sweat like crazy with lobster mitts or any heavy gloves, even those with breathable material, so pogies that aren't super insulated with vents are perfect.
