I just take mine in every night even put them on a drier if get wet inside. I doubt Unless yours are really old. That it's been that cold you would crack them unrolling them. It's usually dry rot cracks my old ones. Handling wire has put more holes in my gauntlets than cold.

Is it ok to leave them folded in sub zero weather in truck overnite? Check traps after work an put in pickup nite before , unroll easy but cold an out hands water move connibear an felt damp by seams wrist a little , could cold cause cracks or loosen seams in cold creek gauntlets ? Take them inside and store them in the freezer and they will be fine !!! w

You should write some of this stuff down. You ask the same questions over and over. Your memory sucks. How do you ever find your traps?
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!
