Backcountry.com Stoic Inbounds Glove - Men's
Impressive

I just purchased these gloves because I needed a mid-weight ski glove and a gear-head-freak-friend of mine recommended this glove.Well, I must admit, I am impressed. While I cannot (yet) comment on whether the glove is warm, it certainly is made well! The leather is laid-in in such a manner as to cause the least seam stress, and the sewing appears quite strong (I gave the glove quite the stress test--since backcountry.com has a lifetime warranty. The wrist band certainly will not let in the cold snow or sleet and the velcro seals together perfectly. The glove passed all tests in my book.While I like the yellow gloves, I own the black ones since friends have the glove in yellow. I normally wear XL and the XL in this glove fits...well...like a glove.Peace!
Update: Glove very warm down to about 18 degrees.
