Perfect for the right application

By Justin Latessa Ranked #385 - Snowboard Gloves December 17, 2008

I have thick hands which tend to overheat rather than get cold so I grabbed these of steepAndCheap. I keep a super warm pair in my backpack just in case usually. These gloves are tactile enough that I didn't have to take them off when pull out a trail map, zipping up/down my soft shell or hard shell, unzipping the nozzle from my hydration pack strap, undoing my helmet, and tightening my ski boots. The only time I took them off was to take an impromptu whiz in the woods, but I'm not sure I even needed too than.

I snow-shielded the palms for good measure, so I'm not sure how they would repel water without it. Its a standard step for any glove as far as I'm concerned.
