Heavy Duty Ski Glove

I don't know what the previous reviewer is talking about. I got a pair of these gloves and have skied them in wind chill conditions at or below zero and they kept my hands perfectly warm.
The removable liner is also a must. It's a great way to make sure that your gloves are perfectly dry if you're doing multiple days of skiing. It also gives you the flexibility to wear the shell alone on warm days.
I used to use a pair of top-of-the-line Marmot gloves with a removable liner, but it seems they stopped making them w/removable liners - too bad as they were great gloves.
The only thing that the Prodigy glove is missing at this price point is a safety strap over your wrists so you can't drop them while on the ski lift and a connector to snap the two gloves together when not wearing them. I would have given the glove a 5 star if it had those two things.
However, if you absolutely need those features and/or want a warmer glove then I'd get the BD Guide. I would have gotten it, but it's probably too warm of a glove for the Pacific Northwest.
