A unique glove that fits a specific need.

FIRST, BEYOTCHES! Finally a decent MID-WEIGHT glove made of fine leather. I"m a fan of leather gloves. That's all i own. Most light to mid-weight gloves seem to be of the synthetic variety so i'm glad Armada ( a wicked good ski company, too, by the way) has made these. The Convict has a very unique design, both in their available color combinations and liberal use of grommets as a functional design element. Most importantly, they made these gloves with just two pieces to create the palm area - so there is only one seam on the palm. Other gloves with multiple panels on the palm seem to wear poorly over time. i bought size L, using their sizing chart and the fit is perfect - snug, low profile, maintaining dexterity while still insulating well. i used them yesterday in 36degree weather and they were quite warm. i assume they would even hold up to 15degree weather. I now have a pair of cold weather gloves, these mid-weight armadas, and a light weight bc.com pair so i'm set for years. These will make those Hestra buyers poo in their pants. guaranteed.
