How do these gloves hold up to Ski Patrol? I am an east coast patroller and my gloves rarely last more than a couple of seasons.

I know this answer is kind of late, but I am also a patroller. About 60 days per season. I've had these gloves for about 3 1/2 seasons, and they hold up super well. The leather turns a greyish nasty looking color, and the cloth looks gross, but the gloves are absolutely perfect structurally. They are absolutely bullet proof and super warm, and the cuffs are nice because when you take off your gloves to write accident reports, tie cravats, etc. you don't loose them. I would definitely recommend them!

Last year, these lasted a full season, looking forward to wearing them again this year.

Jac, I think you will be surprised at how well these hold up. Hestra does all provide a lifetime warranty.

Should hold up fairly well. I've also had good luck with marmot gloves in the past. Any glove though will certainly show its wear if you're using it for patrolling.
