The MHW site doesn't list these as having conduit. Do these have any waterproofing (beyond the leather palms) ?

BZ. These are not waterproof but we do use a Conduit Softshell fabric on the gloves. It is the same fabric that we use in the Synchro Jacket and the G50 Jacket. So, although they are not waterproof I have used them for ice climbing for a couple seasons. The goat skin palms really durable as well. Cheers!

Hey BZ. This glove is not waterproof. MHW is using either Conduit or OutDry in all their waterproof gloves this winter. So unless you see either of those technologies on the glove, it isn't waterproof.
