absolutely!
but going back to that other scenario / ride, with the lobster gloves & bar mitts in the very cold blizzard, no hand warmers. they weren't necessary. if I keep my hands warm detting ready for the ride, then put on warm gloves, combined w bar mitts, no hand warmers are needed. in fact I usually find ways to avoid hand warmers. I have tried them but no, I don't use them for my hands. there was a ride last winter where I threw them in the bottom of my drop bar bar mitts but ultimately didn't need them
those gloves are so good & the mitt provides enough of a wind screen that I was able to hold the bars on top like this
