Guide Glove is Awesome

Having tried many different gloves over the years the Black Diamond Guide Glove is unquestionably the best! My family and I ski about 25 days per winter in extremely cold temperatures in Canada and only two gloves have stood the test - the Black Diamond Guide Glove and Marmot Ultimate Glove. BUT, when it comes down to it the Guide Glove wins out! Although the Ultimate Glove is good the Guide Glove is warmer and keeps your hands warm and toasty even in rainy conditions. I also like the fact that the Guide Glove's liner comes out so you can dry it properly and it does not bunch up in your hand when putting the gloves on. Another wonderful feature is the more than ample length gauntlet which is wide enough to fit over your ski jacket. The Ultimate Glove's gauntlet is not wide enough. As for the price, even though it is expensive it is well worth the cash. Go out and purchase them - you will be thoroughly satisfied!!
