DAKINE Scout Glove - Men's - 2006 BCS

for $45 this glove cant be beat. it is waterproof on the back and has a durable waterproof palm. The shell is really enough for most days and the liner is great for wearing around by itself, i even use it as a running glove. the liner is articulate enough that i can even text on the lift, so i dont have to expose my hands to the cold. it definately runs small though. i followed the sizing chart, bought medium, and had to return it for a large. I was about to swap it for a bigger glove when i realized that it wouldnt really be possible for me to size up, its just too tight across the back of the hand. I do not recomend this for skiers though. With the liner it it feels snug on the hand in a relaxed position but when you bend your fingers (to grasp a pole) it feels like its pulled way to tight across the back of the hand, especially the knuckles. im afraid after alot of use some seams on the back of the fingers will pull out. its slightly uncomfortable, but i get used to it. im sure its fine for any snowboarders who leave their hands in a relaxed position as they ride. other than the tighteness on the back of the hnad, its one of the best gloves ive had

Absolutely love everything about these gloves except for the fit. I have pretty average adult male sized hands (at least I'd like to think). I can't grip a basketball so I didn't think tht I'd need a size XL glove, but the Scouts that I ordered in size Large are tight to the point they're not confortable (and that's without the liners on).

I've seen people here reviewing that you should order a size down, but from my experience I say order a size larger! Not sure if Dakine changed their sizing, but that was my experience at least.

Other than that, I LOVE these gloves. Nebraska winters are known for snow - not pretty snow that falls straight from the sky, but blizzard conditions with 30-40 mile hour winds common. These are the only gloves that I've found in the under-$100 price range that have effectively kept me warm. North Face, Serius, and other brand gloves have failed at this. It also passes the water test as I've held these under the sink for a few minutes without getting my hands wet. That's good enough glove for me.

These gloves are awesome. First of all they look awesome and are most definitely stylish. They are very cozy, and because of the liners, you can wear them in the winter and just take the liners out in the spring. The liners are also great for just chillaxin around in the cold. The price definitely can't be beat especially because of the included liners. Most gloves with liners cost upwards of $60. We all know Dakine makes quality products, and these most certainly don't disappoint. Be sure to pick up a pair of the Dakine Scouts for the coming season!

I know others have said these run big, however, I ordered an XL and my hands barely fit in them. Do I have huge hands? I don't believe so, they look like a pretty average size to me.

That being said they appear to be warm, are very comfortable, and look like they would take some abuse.

Awesome gloves, they are warm enough in cold weather with the liners in, and good for warmer weather with the liner out. Their sizing chart seems to be good to, I just measured the circumference of my hand and ordered based on their sizing chart... gloves fit great!

Sick gloves with or with out liner. Kept my fingers dry and warm in 3 feet of fresh powder. Fit is perfect and even with liners in fingers retain mobility. Definitely the best pair of gloves I have owned.

3 gloves in one, its the best. on the cool days, the liner inside will keep me more than warm enough. On a colder day, the glove without the liner will keep you very warm and dry, and when its getting in the single digits and below, the glove and liner keep your hands warm and sweat free. I have not had a problem with cold hands since the day i got them. they also keep the water out very well and dry quickly if any snow gets in.

my only complaint is that they are a tiny bit big. the liner fits perfect, but with the glove, the fingers are a little long. but i can easily live with it

These gloves are great! "Fit like a glove" right out of the box ( Could not help the punn there, but it could not be any truer). I immediately tested them using the gloves
themselves,without the liner, shoveling snow for 20 minutes in -27C weather
with a windchill of -37C. After that, my hands felt a bit cool, but not bad. Everything has limits, but
-37C is quite a limit. I must admit, with my other gloves, my hands would start feeling numb at that point. Then, I tested these gloves with the liner in the same weather - much warmer. These gloves are quite stylish with lots of handy features.

I've alway had a problem with
my hands going numb at temps below -20C being outside for more then 30 min.; but I can tell, my problem has disappeared. I remember a construction worker saying to me " they can put a man on the moon, but they can't make descent set of gloves to keep
your hands warm". Congratulations Dakine, you have proved him wrong!

I have yet to test these in any sort of snowy conditions but here are my initial thoughts: I actually price matched these to an amazing price after stumbling upon this model of gloves near the end of my search and am very glad on both points. They have all the bells and whistles - cinches and straps.

Putting the gloves on without the liners - they feel soft and comfortable and seem as though they'd be just as warm as a few gloves I tried in a store in the $50-60 range from grandoe, Burton and North Face's Montanas. You have more freedom in your fingers and hand to grasp than those other gloves it seems. This is probably because they are slightly more spacious to allow room for the fleece glove inserts.

The fleece gloves are much thicker than I thought they would be - I thought they would be a very thin one layer of cloth but they are a few/4 layers thick and are pretty much a standalone warmer weather glove. They look really nice actually and I'll probably wear them separately often.

The gloves with the fleece gloves are a pretty darn tight fit - you lose a lot of finger movement freedom (that's fine imo as snowboarding you don't really need it and I also have flow bindings) - almost feels slightly uncomfortable in the finger tips if you pull too tight.. so just put them in just enough and start your hand into the glove with the fleece gloves not pulled on fully so that the fleece isn't pulled extremely tight on your tips.

I can see the combo being extremely warm and in fact will probably resort to just wearing the gloves without the inserts as I'm not the type of person who gets cold easily nor cares - almost prefer being on the colder side.

For the price - they are definitely Great in comparison to the next competitors up. After some testing - if the gloves are good without the inserts (don't leak and are decently warm) then they'll be real winners... I'm not sure if they designed them to be similar to other gloves without the inserts or not but so far it seems like it. Otherwise, next time I'll try a pair without inserts just so you dont get that tight fingertip feeling to be warm.

Measured my hand using their size chart and based off of that they are sized perfectly. Also was the same size in those three other brands I mentioned above by means of trying those on.

I ordered a Large orginally, folwing the sizing chart and going off the size of my previous gloves, however, these runa little short and slim. I then ordered XL and they fit perfectly. I sold that Large to my friend so I didn't have to waste money on shipping. The liners are awesome, but the gloves feel warm enough to possibly not need them. the cuff is excellent, I like the baffle to keep the snow out. I have yet to try them in snow, but will in two weeks. If I don't like them, I will be back to change this review.

Great glove! Just don't get the liner too close to the stove because it will melt. Trust me.

I like the liners but it is a little tight with wrist guards, liners, and then the gloves. I do not use the liners anymore. The gloves are very comfy and keep my hands warm. I would buy these again but maybe a size larger to accommodate for the wrist guards.

In reading the reviews, I bought a medium in these gloves. Way to small! I think they are true to size and I returned them for a large. Haven't used the the gloves yet, but will comment on that later. I'm still giving 5 stars because the return is due to size, not the gloves which are well constructed at a great price.

Picked them up off of SAC a few months ago to replace a pair of gloves, and i am glad i did. Warm and durable and waterproof for the price. The only complaint i have was the liners. They are not the warmest things in the world but that was easily fixed by just getting a pair of polartec MEC liners

The stitching started coming apart after only two trips. Otherwise they seem decent enough. I got a medium, the inner lining was still too loose but when i wore the lining with the glove it was almost too tight.

I'm a newbee to skiing/snowboarding, but these gloves are great.
When I'm not having fun, I use them to shovel snow in Chicago and they work great, keep my hands nice and warm.

I have the women's version of these and they have given me several years of enjoyment so far. My sister's boyfriend saw them last year and wanted gloves with the nose wipe and goggle wipe. These fit the bill and he loved them.

i am a big fan of dakine but i think dakine awesome job on these gloves. Kept me warm in cold weather and weren't too hot in warm weather. With or without the liners the gloves are super comfortable. What are you waiting for just buy them!

I use these for snowmachining the backcountry of Alaska amd love them. I've used them in temps ranging from 30 down to -25 and my hands have always stayed toasty warm. I like the liner that goes with these as it makes putting the outer glove easier but I lost them sometime last year. I got them on sale and if they should go back on sale, I will be getting another pair.

I cannot attest to an entire season on these as I just got them a month ago. However, I have had a couple of freezing days and a couple of warm days, I haven't gotten wet one bit, my hands have stayed warm on the freezing days and pretty comfortable on the warmer days. For 30-40$ you really can't go wrong with these, they look cool, they keep you warm and dry and they cost about 1/3 of gloves that are comparable. Get em'

These gloves were everything i was looking for! they are definetly waterproof, and the liners are sweet! the first day i used them it was 30deg out and i just rocked the liners all day! great glove for the price!

the liners are super comfortable and overall these gloves are nice and warm down to anything above around 15-20F. When it gets super cold you might want something with a bit more insulation but these are great because when it gets a little warmer your hands wont be too hot that youre sweating and need to take them off

Gloves are very warm. They are a little bulky so if you have to do alot with your hands be prepared to take them off alot. The liners work well.

These gloves are great, I've had them for about two seasons and only now have showed signs of wearing out. Even without the liners they are plenty warm enough for a day on the slopes, though they can get a little soggy in wet snow. The liners are great too, even on their own.

Good all around gloves for 25 to 45 degrees. Use the liners when it's cold don't use 'em when its warmer. Used 'em 3 times and they appear to be holding up so far.

These are the only gloves I've found so far that keep my hands warm. The liner itself is enough on cool days. On very cold days, the liner and the glove together still keep my hands warm enough. The run a bit big so buy one size down.

these gloves are great, the first time i wore them it was a warmer day so i was putting them on and off and at times i would get snow in my finger tips and they would dry nice and fast, the second time i wore them it was cold and they kept my hands nice and warm.

Temp was 3 degrees with snow guns blowing. I got really wet & cold, but my hands were dry & warm. I love these gloves. I did have to use the inner liners too, but when it's 3 degrees- you should need them. I never trust reviews, but I read some before purchase & everyone who loved these gloves were right. My only negative is that the tops are very wide- so it's hard to get them inside your jacket sleeves. But I did break out a new jacket too- so it may get better. But overall- best gloves I've ever had in 25 years of skiing.

best gloves i've owned to date! liners make it real easy for hot or below 0 days

These gloves are great. The only downside so far isn't really a downside, it's just a personal thing- my old gloves had an articulated thumb, and these do not. These ones are still way better though. Easy on and off, keeps the hands really warm, the liners are great- although I never really need them. Overall, an awesome purchase. This site had the lowest price and the shipping took a lot less time than one of their sales people quoted. I was pleasantly surprised when I got to wear these gloves on the slopes about a week (or less) of ordering them.

I have these gloves, and they rock. The additional liner gloves are a plus, which I use around town during the cooler times of the year. The gloves themselves are warm and comfy, a little awkward if I were to try to do stuff with them (operate a camera, get my wallet, etc), but overall they are sweet.

Great pair of gloves. I really liked the fact that it has an insulation layer. I used these gloves during my vacation to Yellowknife and they kept me really warm. Grip and control are lacking but they do keep the fingers warm. Now that i'm back in a warmer climate i use the insulation gloves as driving gloves, a 2 for 1. :)

I have a problem with poor circulation in my hands, and as a result my hands are always cold. These gloves are so warm that I had to take the liners out at -7 while cross country skiing in the South Dakota Black Hills. They are also very comfortable and not so bulky that they interfere with use of my hands. They are definitely more than worth the modest price.

these are by far the best gloves i have owned in many years. the gloves are lined with some type of fleece which keeps my hands warm enough that i have yet to have the need to wear the liners in them. the liners are comfortable and warm as well.
sizing chart is accurate, but since i never wear the liners, mine are a hair bigger than what i would like.
definitely a great buy.

can't beat the price. kept me warm and dry all day.

These gloves were way warm. I never used the liners & gloves together.
The liners were great for drinking beer outside, because they were extra grippy.
If you're consistently in 25 degree or lower weather, then these are the set up. I'd pick another pair for spring boarding.

These gloves were amazing. They stayed warm in all conditions and kept my hands extremely dry. Also really nice touch that the liners are actually quality liners that I could use on their own for walking around town at night. Only problem I can think of is that in extremely cold weather the palm of the glove tended to get very stiff, but it was easy to get it back to normal.

The Dakine Scout Glove is a good warm all around glove. The size runs a little big, but not that big of a problem to me. Finger tips are a little loose at the top, making it hard to get in and out of zip pockets. For the money, this is a really good glove.

Dakine great gloves for the price. Dry, breathable, and warm enough in 0 degree weather for under 40 bucks. Cant beat them for the price

These are warm enough even with out the liners, which I use for around town. Durable gloves that can handle the toughest conditions. They put my old gloves to shame!

This is a surprisingly good glove. One of the best gloves for the money I have ever used. I have used it in the coldest/deepest pow days here in UT and my hands feel like they just came out of a warm car.
