DAKINE Element Glove - Men's

Ehhh

By Ranked #565 - Gloves February 18, 2010

My wife bought these gloves on tramdock. They are OK. I lost my nice BD freeride gloves so I had to go to these.

They are sort of warm, but more than keep my hands warm they make them sweat, which keeps my hands chilled. The goretex does not breath well, so if you sweat your hands will not be that warm. Also, plastic material in the Palm sucks (as usual). if you are going to spend money on gloves...go with a leather palm. It's a huge difference in functionality and quality.

If you are moving around a lot, like in the backcountry they do pretty well. At the resort expect a constant fight to keep your hands warmed up. Still, pretty good deal for the price.
