FlyLow Gear Ridge Leather Glove - 2010 BCS

Great durable/warm glove for the price. When it comes to fit/grip/dexterity the Hestra's work better with my hands.

These are a decent glove if you work/play in the snow but seldom make contact with it. I used these off and on for half a winter season in the northeast. They worked ok when I was moving a lot and kept my body temperature up. But my hands would get a bit too cold on the harshest of days, when the temps dipped below 10 degrees, standing inline or on the lift.

Also, I have a hard time believing the waterproofing claim as well. As a snowboarder, I tend to touch the snow a bit more compared to my skiing counterparts, who recommended these gloves. They were constantly getting wet. I tried adding some waterproofing, but that had little effect. When I visited the Pacific NW in mid March, I attempted to wear these gloves. They didn't last 1 run before the heavy, wet snow took it's toll and they were soaked all the way through.

They worked well when doing some backcountry, though. They were easy to get on and off compared to typical ski gloves with a gauntlet.

This is exactly what I want in a glove. Super abrasion resistant, simple, inexpensive, and waterproof. These gloves maintain enough dexterity (after breaking them in) that you can actually get some work done with your gloves on. This is my favorite set of gloves that I've come across so far. Way to be, Flylow.

Love these things. They offer more use than just skiing/snowboarding in the winter time. They're my new favorite go-to glove that I always keep in my car now.

I haven't used them in extremely slushy snow yet, but they have kept my hands dry and warm under normal snow conditions.

The greatest part about them (besides the excellent cheap price) is that I haven't had the need to take them off in order to adjust, take on, or take off any of my gear.

These bad boys sell out fast...Buy them now. Wore them numerous times this year skiing and I think they are the perfect ski glove for those who don't like big bulky gloves. Great dexterity and superb warmth. They don't wick moisture out as well as others but small problem that can be overlooked.

Final thought...the price can't be beat

I am a huge fan off these gloves. Of course, everyone wants to play the "look how core I am with my Kinco gloves" game but I'd rather have these. I own Kincos and I find that the Flylow version fits much better. They are already broken in out of the box and pre-baked and sealed. I'm usually a fan of doing things myself and saving money, but not this time. The biggest reason I prefer these is that Kinco gloves I have owned always feel "long in the fingers" and "short in the fist" if that makes sense? In contrast the flylows feel perfect.

After you seal the glove with water proofing sealant, these are my go-to gloves for all conditions. The thin interior layers allow for skin-close grip and the thinsulate provides good warmth on those cold days. I don't recommend using these when it's super cold or wet, and it could be consider a more mid/light weight weather glove. Love.

It's not an insulated Gore-Tex glove. It's a leather work glove. Of course it's not totally waterproof, but hit these babies with some extra snowseal and theyre good to go.
For the backcountry skier, there are three gloves to have - a fleece liner glove for skinning, an insulated waterproof glove for heinous cold and wet conditions, and this glove for everything else. For the price, you can't beat these.

These gloves are killer.

Heavy Duty Leather, but not stiff. Liner is warm and it's not as bulky as I thought it would be. XL are big...I have banana hands and these are on the cusp of being too big, but not quite....

Awesome looking and have been performing well for the two times I have used them for shoveling snow. As soon as we get some snow, I will be taking them on the Mountains.

I like that FLYLOW dips these in beeswax to seal the leather. It does make a difference.

For the pricepoint, what you get is off the charts. You won't regret buying these.

I am on my second pair this season and it is not even February. First pair the Thinsulate ripped out of the fingers in less than a month. Second pair is beginning to fall apart after two weeks of work as a patrol. I am going with Kinco!!!!!

These gloves are basically the same as a fully-insulated leather work glove you can get at your local hardware store.

They are nice gloves, though, very solid, and your average fully-insulated hardware store glove might not always have knit cinch-wrist feature (which is nice) but the Flylows are also 3-4 times the price as a hardware store glove.

In terms of the fit, I would echo another reviewer in that they are "short and fat". I usually wear an XL and these XLs are very roomy/baggy in the palm/heel area of the hand with less length in fingers.

Used these for 2 ski trips in Maine and Utah - Great gloves. They provide top notch warmth and dexterity. I actually prefer these to other pricier gloves. Highly recommended.

Although I am a woman with small hands I usually wear a men's small work glove. I needed something for my job working at a barn that would be warm (but not too warm) and waterproof but also hold up to daily abuse, ski gloves usually are trashed by seasons end if not sooner and guantlet cuffs are annoying to deal with (just a good way to get a glove full of hay). There are several equestrain companies that offer insulated work gloves but they are always overpriced for thier quality and never waterproof, I figured 100s of Colorado lifties couldn't be too misguided. They are holding up great but once I wore them a few times they stretched and packed out and went from big to really big. I had hoped these would double for cross country skiing, riding and skijoring but they are just too big for any sort of small work like knotting hay nets, halter buckles and dealing with bindings and I find myself having to constantly take them off. They fit my husband who wears a medium or large glove. If I could find them in XS or if Flylow decided to start offering women's sizing I would definitely offer them more stars and buy another pair (or two).

I had trouble picking the correct size, I was right between a medium and a large on a basic glove sizing chart. I ended up ordering both and decided the mediums were just a little too small and the large was just a little too big so I returned both. But if you are on the border of sizing, I would recommend going with the smaller size, since they will break in and pack out a bit. They were super durable, waterproof and comfortable, I just couldn't get the sizing right for my hand. Also- I would classify them as mid-weight, they do have an ok amount of insulation, but not a ton for those colder days. Overall a great glove for the price.
