Description

Now you’re in the big time.

Hestra built the big-mountain Women’s Heli 3-Finger Glove out of Triton, its most hard-wearing fabric, to give you full patrol support as you rip huge lines, assault the trees, and drop cliffs like a psychotic lemming. A removable liner regulates temperature and Hestra’s Eagle Grip shape follows the form of your hand rather than the form of a stiff board. Handcuffs hold in heat and block snow, and Quallofil insulation keeps you warm when the thermometer goes into the negative.

I bought this pair on the advice of a friend after my old pair of gloves were cracked and left my fingers cold. The 3 finger gloves are a great idea because I'm able to use my index finger to grab things but it keeps my fingers for the most part warm. I accidentally dropped some snow in the gloves and they dried out really quickly even with me wearing them, which was a huge plus.

Either I am a creature of habit or this is an awesome glove (probably a little bit of both considering I buy this glove every couple of years). I have heard complaints that the gloves are too warm, or that the leather is not very durable in wet conditions. For me, however, I use this seemingly powder glove everyday to fight raynauds and am vigilant about applying the leather protective oil to fight against wetness. I have been fortunate and not skied too many wet days where the gloves might soak through - if this is your future I would recommend the gor-tex version.

Besides the warmth, I keep coming back to these gloves because of the 3-finger dexterity. It functions like a glove, but I rarely have to remove it altogether with the freedom of the index finger. Overall, great glove for resort skiing!

I have skied with old tattered gloves for the past 5 years, always had cold, wet hands. All my skier friends wear Hestra, I just couldn't get past the price but I'm so glad I finally gave in and got a pair and I'm glad I chose Backcountry.com, good price and reliable, I felt safe ordering from them! I love my new gloves, I like the wrist leash and the fact that the liners are removable and the soft leather is really nice when i wipe my nose!

I bought these mits for my girlfriend two seasons ago. She loved the look, the cuff and the wrist lanyards. Unfortunately the leather saturates with water easily and results in cold wet hands. I found this odd because I have the hestra heli gloves and have never had this issue. We both apply leather oil to the gloves regularly.

I'm pretty sold on Hestra based on the reviews listed but need help deciding between the 3-Finger Glove and the Heli Mitt. Any advice?

The 3-finger is the best of both worlds, offering better dexterity than a mitten, with a level of warmth and comfort that surpasses a glove. I have a pair of the Men's 3-fingers and absolutely love them. They take some getting used to, but having the ability to pick things up with your thumb and index finger, or grab items out of your pocket without having to take off a mitten makes a world of difference. I would definitely recommend the 3-finger, for sure!

To me the gloves look to be good quality, and backcountry.com has them for a great price. I was sorry to hear from my wife that they didn't keep her hands warm. For her these will be spring skiing gloves.

I'm very surprised. I have skied a tremendous amount over the past 44 years and tried numerous gloves/mittens. For me, Hestra is by far the best.

This particular glove doesn't keep my hands warm either! disappointed

These gloves fit snug true to size. I wear a women's 7 in gloves and these fit well. If you are in between, go for the larger size. These are perfect for mid 20's to mid 30's air temps. Might be a bit too warm above that. And I have "cold" hands. I have only worn them for 6 or 7 outings but they are still waterproof and the leather has been wearing well (I don't use these on a rope tow though) and still waterproof. Haven't worn them in a downpour. I have good dexterity. Love the handcuffs. I have the all white ones - I do wish they would make the palm leather in either black or dark grey.

Just wondered how you like these vs. the gloves, and if these seemed stiff or soft?

I've been using a set of the men's heli gloves for years and have been thoroughly impressed with them. After listening to my girlfriend complain about cold fingers most of last season I bought a pair of these for her for x-mas. I picked the 3-finger gloves because she snowboards. They provide a little more dexterity for adjusting bindings while the mitten part keeps the smaller, less used fingers a bit warmer.

We put them to good use over the holiday break making it out to the slopes 4 times in one week. They held up well to the relatively constant use. She has been very, very happy with them. Where we used to take a break every hour or so to warm up we now keep on skiing/boarding. Even on a day with a -10F windchill I never heard a peep about fingers being cold. Toes on the other hand...that's the next item to address :-)


I don't find the Hestra Heli series gloves to be the best option on an extremely cold day, but they are certainly better than a lot of other options and its hard to go wrong at the price. On most 20-30F days the heli gloves/mittens can be almost too warm if you're working hard carving turns.

These are the best compromise I've found between mitts and gloves - super, super warm and they leave your trigger finger free should you need to fend off any attackers. My wife wears the woman's glove and I wear the unisex - can't tell a difference to save my life.

Quality construction, buttery soft leather!

Backcountry phone representatives are always helpful, they ships fast too.
