Outdoor Research StormTracker Glove - 2007 BCS

What a glove, articulated fit, nice leather palms, easy to get on and off with the zipper. I use them for summer alpine climbing, ice climbing and ski touring (for the way up) They are slim and trim so you could layer a beefy outer shell glove on top for more warmth and pull those off for times in need of dexterity

Great gloves. Very warm. Can grip anything very easily. Worth every penny no matter the price.

Got these gloves three weeks ago, and I can not stop wearing them.they have been great for spring ski touring,and cool weather cycling commutes!

Comfy with good dexterity!

Unbelievably versatile. I use these gloves for everything from winter cycling to trail running to driving to just being outside on cold blustery days. The pic looked like these might be a little more bulky than I was hoping, but that's deceiving. These gloves are very close-fitting and have remarkable dexterity. I have no problems shifting on bike, and can easily manipulate zippers and draw cords without having to de-glove. A great product that I could not recommend more highly!

I used these for 10 days in the nastiest weather and never had any problems with them. The leather dries quickly and keeps its shape if you happen to get them really wet. The tight fit makes them great for setting up tents in 40mph winds or protecting your knuckles on that next pitch.

I don't know if these are supposed to stay dry, but they were soaked by the end of some long glassades down Mt Adams this weekend. They worked extremely well on the way up. I imagine they performed as expected. Took them off after the last glassade (total of over 2-3,000 feet of glassading!).

I have very warm hands. The warmth of my hands causes most gloves to become damp and ironically cold eventually. I usually ski in spring gloves but they tend to wear out very quickly. I asked for these for Xmas and they have served me well. They aren't very warm but I still use them about 1.2 the time at Taos in the winter. They have excellent dexterity and would be great for people that have to do things such as operate radiosetc. I can buckle boots, zip parkas answer a cell phone with these on. They are probably a bit over-priced but show no wear after a season and 1/2. They are probably not tough enough for climbing although they are great for BC touring.

I use these for driving and activities where dexterity is needed. They keep me warm and allow me to work!

Ok, so I'll admit it.... I bought these gloves because I thought they looked cool. Sure, I needed a pair of lightweight wind resistant gloves for hiking, but with all the options out there, and my expectation that most of them would perform well, I let it come down to style. I was not disappointed. upon arrival, I was surprised that these gloves look even better in person... that dosen't happen too often in my experience.
The gloves are pretty comfortable. mine are just a bit on the snug side, but my hand comes in right at the top of the medium, so I expected that, and that's the fit I was aiming for anyway. The zippers allow for easy entry, and though they are a bit hard to unzip, even with the snug fit, I can slip the gloves off without unzipping, so I'm not knocking points for that... I can't see how they could have designed it to unzip easily, it's just like a law of nature.
The palm is where these gloves really shine. the leather is soft and comforms well to the contrours of my hand. I am used to the function of law enforcement type search gloves, which are light, thin, and have good tactile transmission. these fall right in that comfort and usability range, with the addition of windstopper.... though these have no cut or puncture resistant material, so I would proably not frisk a crack head with them.
overall, I suspect these will quickly become my goto gloves. They have function enough to get the job done and style enough that I'd be proud to wear them anywhere.

I ordered these gloves hoping that my hands would at least not hurt from the cold when riding my bike. As long as the temperature is above 45 degrees they are okay.
