Customer Reviews The North Face Etip Glove

Bought these for driving and all around wear. I've had them a week and they already show signs wear plus the grip palm is falling off already... This is not normal for TNF stuff will have to wait till season is over, before I try to warranty these

I spent hard earned money for a "better brand", the Etip and skin hugging comfort. The seams in the left thumb blew out in the first month, right thumb seams the second month. Poor Quality for the price!

i bought these gloves about 2 months ago. they were a little expensive $45 but i figured hey i can use my phone outside and not freeze my fingers off lets give it a shot so i bought them. they worked great for about 2 months now the ETIP no longer works i have to touch it at some weird angle to get them to work and i end up having to take my glove off to use my phone. honestly i would recommend just getting a no name brand and saving your money. maybe if northface would replace the gloves when the ETIP stopped working or make it so the etip lasted longer i woudl reccomend buying them. i dont wanna spend $45 every 2 months.

I don't know if they've recently changed the material, but I bought these 2yrs ago when I have my iPhone 4 and it worked fine. But it does not work with my iPhone 5S now - still works with my old iPhone 4 and iPad, but not the newer iPad mini or iPhone 5S. Additionally, I support that they do NOT block any wind whatsoever.

the previous model was much more fit, these are too fat and too short when it comes to fingers

I bought this gloves in Manhattan, it was cold. I explained to the guy in the store that I needed them to warm my hands. He recommended very well so I bought them. They are very cool very stylish BUT do not work to warm at all. I would like to change it but I was in a visit in NYC, and now I'm back in my country.

Got these gloves as a base layer for my expedition trip in Norway and on the first day the seam on one of the gloves completely came apart and left my index finger exposed to snow. Left my other gloves at camp so I was stuck with a very very cold and uncomfortable finger during a technical climb. Would not recommend because these gloves come apart before even being used!

The only thing I liked about these gloves were the eTip functionality.

These gloves could be great but they are made from poor workmanship. I wore them 3 times and they got a little wet. They immediately started to smell within once they dried so I decided to wash them on a gentle cycle. The smell went away but the logo started to peel off from the gloves and they became pilly. I hung these to dry so never put them in the dryer. After wearing them one time again the material began to smell again. I would not buy these ever again. After just 4 times of wearing these gloves, they look like ive had them for half a year. They look old and gross. Will never buy gloves from Northface again.

Bought these for my wife, she does not like due to them not being warm. I'm assuming they don't seal in heat

I bought these gloves 3 weeks ago and I'm very disappointed. I have always purchased north face because it's the best. These gloves not only are tearing at the seams but all of my ETip is wearing off and now I have to remove my gloves to text (defeating the purpose of buying them). I will still always recommend north face, but you can buy cheap gloves that work just as well.

The stitching came out of the side seam at one of the fingers after only wearing them 3 times! Whats worse is that NorthFace states: "The North Face stands behind the quality of everything we sell and hope you're happy with your gear." But they must be unworn!!?? Does that make any sense at all??!! You can only test out the quality of a product by wearing them. 60 day return policy means nothing if you cant use it. Ok, so there is a warranty..but that also defeats the purpose of having gloves for winter that I wont get back for a month or more! These are size L, and i have average sized hands..it was not a fit issue at all.

These gloves are thin and already wearing at only a few weeks and have never kept my hands warm in temps of only the 50s

I had these for one week and then the stitching fell apart. To get a refund, I need to spend $7.00 on postage. Not worth my time.

The fact that the touch function wore off so quick with these gloves is very disappointing considering how much they cost. I would not recommend. They also provide no warmth against the elements. Very disappointed.

Worked great until I washed them - now the etip functionality doesn't work (I have to take off the glove to use my phone) I liked them until they stopped working - wouldn't recommend buying.

Seam pulled apart after two weeks of use minimal use. Low quality junk, not typical of TNF.

I bought two pairs, one as a gift and one for me. The reason we buy gloves is for the winter and this glove is like having nothing on. The wind blows through and they are not warm at all. I went on a walk and my hands are frozen by the time I got home. It's great that I can use my cell phone but I might as well not have a glove on.

just bought these gloves, temp is 30 degrees figured they would be perfect. i was wrong the wind cuts right through them my hands would be the same as if did not have them on. if they could find away to make these with wind stopping ability i would like that. i like how thin they are just want a lil more warmth in a thin design

After a week of usage, and I repeat exactly 1 week, it torn up around the thumb. I am a heavy user of Northface since 6 years now and this is the first time I encounter such bad quality, I am really disappointed. Out of care for the brand I believe it should redesign the gloves to reflect the endurance and quality of Northface.

I bought these gloves and they ripped near the thumb within a week. Just by merely pulling off my gloves like regular, ripped the stitching by my thumb on one hand, then happened 2 weeks later on the opposite glove! I bought these gloves because it's supposed to be superior quality then cheaper gloves I bypassed and thus last longer. I love Northface products, have a coat that is on year 5 and still looks amazing. Just disappointed I dropped $50 on these for them not to last. Tried uploading pics of tears, but of course site won't let me.

I purchased a pair of these on the strength of the North face name. The first time I put them on my finger ripped through the top of the ring finger. On closer inspection, the finger wasn't stitched at all. No problem mistakes happen. Returned them for a new pair. On the SECOND time I put them on my middle finger rips through the top of the finger. On further inspection, yep, you guessed; it was barely stitched. I thought North Face was better quality then this! I'll be returning these as soon as it's feasible.

I bought these gloves and paid the price premium over other gloves hoping they would provide decent warmth, good dexterity and allow me to use my iphone. Unfortunately, they are not warm at all. The slightest breeze below 32F and you can feel it on your hand. The index fingers keep twisting so the non-Etip material contacts the screen so I have to keep turning the "finger" but it wants to go back. When they gloves are not on, the finger still wants to twist. Now, a month later one of the seams on the left thumb has opened up. TNF wants me to mail them back, what am I suppsed to wear for 6 weeks?

I ordered these gloves on October 12, 2013. I absolutely loved them; however, after 3 months of light use both gloves began to fall apart at the seams. I wish I could post picture! Sadly, I have to go through a month process to return them via online. Even worse is I have no promise that I won't just get another pair that were poorly sewen. Other than the pathetic durability of the gloves, I cannot be more happy with the actual function of the gloves themselves.
