By Ranked #1272 - Gloves November 2, 2007

The reason that I'm giving it a 2 is that although it's being sold as a "womens" glove, and the manufacturer does have "ladies" on the inside tag, this is actually a "junior" glove. Check out the size chart and the size chart is correct. Any adult woman would wear an XLG. The cardboard that the gloves are attached to, clearly states "girls" gloves. This is not entirely Backcountry's fault, because the manufacturer is so unclear. Also, the price is a lot higher than most "junior" gloves. If you like the glove, than order an extra large if you wear a 6.5 or 7, which is a small adult hand. Anyone larger should pass. Also, think the glove is overpriced for the quality. There are a lot of gloves on the market at this price point that are better. Glove looks good cosmetically, but that is the best that I can say. A size Large was too small for my size 7 hand. Did not have a chance to try the XLG, as they were out of stock. Do not recommend this glove!
