Hestra Army Leather Gore-Tex XCR Glove
Decent

Ranked #452 - Ski Gloves
February 8, 2011
These gloves are my go to gloves. I've had them for 2 years now and they are still holding up fine with no cuts or rips. I really like the arm strap and the gauntlet fits over my jacket sleeve. After the first year the warmth has decreased, but I just added some lamb's wool to them and they are great down to the single digets. I was at Winter Park today and my fingers would get cold after 3-4 runs, but it was -6F and very windy.
Bottom Line:
Unmatched durability.
I could see buying this again, but would need another glove for very cold temperatures.
