Hestra Cloud Nine Glove

Hestra designed the Cloud Nine Gloves with backcountry freeriding in mind. Hestra added Thermolite insulation for warmth while you wait for your buddies to catch up. A breathable, waterproof insert in this glove keeps hands dry in the backcountry. Hestra also threw in knuckle protection for when you are skiing in tight trees and fighting off branches. You have plenty of style, and so do the Cloud Nine gloves—contrasting colors and clean, short cuffs add detail.

Bottom Line: Get these gloves for all of your backcountry freeriding this season.

Damn my hands look good.

I love these gloves. The leather is super resilient so the white color stays surprisingly clean looking. The fit just gets better with time as a good leather glove should. Definitely continue to use the leather sealant cream that comes with the gloves (or something comparable). Its keeps them nice longer, keeps your hands warm. Hestra rocks.

Solid

I've been a big fan of Hestra gloves for a little while now so it should be no surprise that the Cloud Nine gloves pass the test on cold weather days. I initially bought these as a late season glove, but they handled freezing temps with gusts over 40mph last weekend just fine. The price listed here is the only thing keeping this product at 4 stars since I bought mine new for $35. Note that the Cloud Nine will have a snug fit at first, but after 10 or so days they should fit much better.

what is the best way to apply water proofing to these? heat them up in the oven for a few minutes then apply? Do i need to worry about getting leather balm on the non leather parts of the glove?

Bad Answer Angus, Hestra recommends waterproofing their gloves. Sigh.

Best way to do it is to take some time and rub the waterproofing wax into the glove, making sure to especially get areas that tend to get wet. Hope that helps, it shouldn't take more than a few minutes.

Great Glove

By:
October 9, 2009

These gloves are warm yet still true to hestras roots as being very dexterous. They are pretty breathable, I have used them in a variety of conditions with temperatures ranging from 15-35 or so and they perform very well. Only downside is it seems that getting white leather gloves makes them susceptible to absorbing colors off of other fabrics for some reason. They are slightly discolored, possibly cleaning with leather conditioner will fix.

For my Hestra Gloves, I always apply after leaving the gloves near a heater in my house for a little while to make sure that they are warm/room temperature, but not too hot. Don't worry about getting the the waterproofing on the synthetic parts of the glove, it will just make it more water repellent. I usually re-apply the leather balm and/or waterproofing 1/2 way through the season to keep the leather in good shape.

Better than the Seth Morrison pro model

By:
January 19, 2009

Unlike the the Seths, these are TRUE to size. They have slightly more insulation, and give me more dexterity. I've skied with the Boronowski/Cloud Nines in the negative teens (F) and my hands remained very warm. The Hestra leather balm worked just ok. The gloves get a little wet on the palms, but my hands FEEL NO MOISTURE.
FIVE STARS!!

Wondering what size to get?

By:
October 21, 2009

I just got the Hestra Cloud Nines and they feel great. I haven't had a chance to use them in the snow ( it's still summer) but just thought I would put in my two cents about sizing. I read all the reviews, measured my had and went with the smaller size 8. my hands measures to be an 8 also. I had to exchange them, which by the way is very easy with backcountry.com and got a size 9. They nines fit great. remember they are leather gloves and will stretch a bit after a while. I would say if you are in between sizes go for the size up definitely.

Are the Cloud Nine's warmer than the Backcoutry stoic in

The Hestra Cloud Nine Glove might be slightly warmer than the Backcountry.com Stoic glove because the Hestra Glove uses synthetic insulation and the Backcountry.com glove uses wool. I own the Backcountry.com Stoic glove and have to admit on cold days my hands are not warm but hiking or anytime the temp is above 25 degrees the gloves rock.

Not Bad

By:
February 4, 2009

These gloves are very nice. I think the price is a bit inflated, but no doudt about quality. If you like Hestra gloves i would check out the Backcountry.com generic brand. They are a better price and perhaps a better glove. I returned these in favor of the Backcountry.com Inbounds Glove. I think it's better than the Cloud Nine. Cheers!

previously the anthony boronowski pro model glove, with that said these things crush. They are a very warm glove. I have never had my hands cold or wet. The only worry i have with these gloves is that ski edges might rip the leather on the palms, just something to be afraid of.

Best Gloves I've ever had

By:
February 3, 2009

I really like the fit of these gloves. They are also exceptionally warm. Skied yesterday in 14 degrees and my hands were sweating.

I also like the additional leather patches on the thumb and index finger. They are usually the first place to go on my gloves.

These run small

By:
March 25, 2009

Very dexterous and warm glove. Seems like they run very small compared to other brands. I used the sizing chart provided and it wasn't even close. Once I was able to get the right fit I must say I really like the glove. Overall I'm happy with this purchase, they fit well, look good, are warm and are dexterous. I ended up sizing up twice before I got the right size.

Manual dexterity and warmth

By: Backcountry.com Employee
January 26, 2009

The Hestra Cloud Nine sits in the top 2 gloves of my arsenal and believe me I have a lot. I've had so many problems with gloves and it's hard for me to find a good glove. What I look for is manual dexterity, dryness factor and warmth. I've had other gloves that combine two of the three but not all three. This glove achieves the holy trinity! I absolutely love it. I've never worn a glove that is so minimalist and yet warm. Great dexterity, dry and warm. I've worn down to about -10 with this glove and no problems. The sizing is true to the chart although the wrist is a little tight, it's worth it. I would definitely recommend this to any skiier, if the price tag is a little much for you, check out the NEW Backcountry.com brand Inbounds Glove.
