I'm a glove destroyer. Cheap gloves in the $50-$70 range don't usually last a full day for me. The fairly spendy Dakine Apollos lasted 3 days. Between grabs and, dragging my hands on fast turns and pushing off of trees, my gloves die a quick but painful death.
Enter the Hestra Army Leather Gore-Tex XCR Gloves. Nice thick leather on the palms, burly double stitching, substantial attention to detail. I'd show up for a gun fight in nothin but my Hestras and go home unscathed. Yup, I submit that they're so burly, they can stop bullets. Oh and they're warm too. And did I mention that the gauntlet is plenty big enough without being overly bulky like some gloves? Yeah, these gloves rock. Worth every freakin penny. Buy some, stop cold, stop wet, stop rips and stop bullets.
