As good as they look

By Backcountry.com Employee January 2, 2009

This is the third "water proof" glove I have had, and it's the only one that I've had that actually is waterproof. I put on these gloves, then put them underwater for about 5 min, squeezing and flexing my hand to try and open up the seams to let water in, and my hands stayed completely dry. They passed the field tests as well in keeping my hands warm and dry on cold, wet days on the slopes. They also come with a removable wrist leash and the wrist cinches are very easy to use. My only complaint is that the thumbs are a little long, my hands are 7 3/8 long so I'm in between sizes, but I find it weird that all the other fingers fit great except the thumb. On a style note, I got the glade/black, and I find myself looking at my gloves all the time thinking how awesome they look.
