Hestra Army Leather Gore-Tex XCR Glove
Toasty!

Ranked #15 - Ski Gloves

These gloves were awesome for my trip to Utah. Gore-Tex never let any water in, and the times snow would fall in when I took them off, the melt would evaporate surprisingly quickly. Hands were only cold for about 30 minutes of 6 full days of skiing. The palm and finger leather held up really well against my edges. Used the sizing guide on the Hestra website and the gloves fit rather well.
The only thing I don't quite understand is that these these gloves don't have a removable liner... Seems like they could have benefited from being able to take them out to wash sweat off and such.
Hestra XCRs (Middle), and Hestra Heli (Right)
I would definitely buy these gloves again.
