Mountain Hardwear Torsion Glove
A good skinning glove
By Josh
Ranked #53 - Lightweight Gloves
January 24, 2011
Use: The right weight for North Cascades skinning! Lots of dexterity from the real leather palm, and a snug fit make this glove ideal for pulling skins, buckling boots and other fine motor skills. That, paired with a windproof, water-resistant glove make these extremely versatile.
Craftsmanship: These have held up pretty well, but the stitching around the fingers is already starting to come apart (no holes yet) after about 1 month of hard use.
Fit: a bit on the snug side, but they seem true-to-size to me.
