Gear Review
A Solid Pair

Ranked #1415 - Ski Gloves

I have been a fan of OR handwear for a long time. I have used these on extended trips and they are a solid 2 piece golve. They have some features not mentioned - idiot cords to prevent dropping and the cuff has one handed cinch.
If you are doing inbounds skiing in real cold weather, I would look for something a little warmer. But for warmer days or touring, these are an excellent choice.
