Black Diamond Enforcer Glove

Item #BLD1320 | 2 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Tough, but a design flaw

By Ranked #899 - Gloves April 13, 2009

The Enforcer is a very tough glove and does a perfect job on protecting your fingers. The glove is designed with an outer protecting shell and an inner glove for warmth. The inner glove has an irritating design flaw: when pulling your hand from the glove, it pulls the fingers into the hand area, especially after sweating (which is likely given the ice climbing application). When pushing your hand back in, it is hard to align the inner glove fingers with the outer glove fingers. It usually takes me a while to get them back aligned.

Overall, a good glove if you don't have to remove your hands frequently. Buy 1 size larger unless you really need a close contact.
