Gear Review
Love it, for all weather types

I can't remember if I've done a review or not, so i'll do a new one. Now this is coming from a glove junkie, I think I have more pairs of gloves than I do pairs of skis (don't ask me why). That being said though this is by far one of the best gloves I've ever owned. I just recently purchased Hestra Cloud Nine's and had to pick these up just to "give em a try". I would easily rank these up there with the Cloud Nine in my book. Warm and dry (if you take care of them). I wore these yesterday on a foot-fot and a half powder day in Utah and didn't have any problems with snow penetration or wetness at all. They are extremely comfortable and minimalist. What I mean by that is that they give great manual dexterity which is vital for me in a ski glove. I can adjust my helmet, boots or jacket with no problems. In regards to sizing, I wear an XL in pretty much every glove and the same runs true for this (I have monster hands). The cuff is a little bit snug but it stretches out a bit after some use. All in all it's a great glove, easily 5 out of 5 in my book.
