How many lobster "skins" does it take to make a pair of lobster gloves?

I definitely get into the synthetics for cold weather gear - even if it's just 
the outer shell. Smartwool liner with lobster gloves for coldest, some 
windproofed commuter gloves from City Sports for around town and "classy" time, 
some Garneau full fingers if I'm full off road to keep dexterity.

Freezing to around 20 or so I use some thick Alpaca gloves over a thin silk 
liner.  When it drops below 20 Pearl Izumi lobsters.  Have not yet cycled 
in weather cold enough to wear something under the Lobsters.  Those gloves 
are darn warm.

Below 35 usually some Capo gloves that do a good job of blocking the wind.
They have some padding which is why I chose them.   Below about 25 then
will pull out either some lobster gloves or choppers (deerskin mitten
covers over ragg wool mittens).  Had the latter on a ride yesterday when
the temps were about 15 or so.  If I'm silly enough to be out when it's
below zero, then probably be a set of pogie mittens from Empire Canvas.
 Definite overkill.  Also really tough to use on a drop bar bike.

Rivendell carried these about ten years ago, bought a pair then and still in 
use now. 
They are pretty worn as they are my go to glove for cold riding temps. 
Sometimes I will pull the half mits over them.

Today on a 208k brevet with temperatures hovering in the mid-30s and
intermittent light rain I used Pearl Izumi lobster gloves with smartwool
liners and was pleased.

The other Rivendell owner on the brevet is Rapha to the max.  I don't think
he has much cycling clothing that doesn't say Rapha on it.  Not that
there's anything wrong with that ;)

Wool gloves with Thinsulate < 35
