Best Gloves on the Planet!
By Steve Tibbitts
Ranked #13 - Mittens
October 28, 2008
I tried on every pair of high alti. gloves I could find at the Backcountry retail store. Those guys helped me out a ton and were very cool getting every pair out there! Some were too slippery on the palm trying to pack the insulation in there and others just didn't fit well. These fit perfect, have amazing grip all over the palm and are wicked warm! I have cold hands problems and know I'll have zero problems up in the sinks where some of the coldest temps. in the country are registered! I'm really looking forward to testing them out!
