Worth Every Dime

By Big J Ranked #436 - Ski Gloves December 22, 2009

I'm going on my third season riding these gloves. Previously, I was buying a new pair of gloves every season. I abuse my gear. These gloves have stood up to everything I have thrown at them... or in my case everything I have thrown myself at. Trees, board edges, rocks, bindings. This is the first pair of gloves I have owned in 16 yrs of riding that have not pulled apart at the seam between the thumb and index finger. I won't be replacing them anytime soon. The only time I have been able to get them wet is when I take them off for a safety meeting, deep in the trees somewhere swimming in pow. It can be hard to get the snow out of the fingertips of the glove without a removable liner. Minor complaint though. They can be slightly on the cold side some days. A thin low profile liner would be a good idea for colder weather. Still the best glove I have ever owned. When I do end up replacing them, I'll end up buying the same glove, maybe in the mit style to keep the fingers a little warmer.
