Solid but not Ultimate!

These gloves are pretty good, although not the best I've owned and certainly not the Ultimate glove. They are warm, almost too warm if it's above 25 outside. The XCR liner is awesome, besides the days that i'm just plain old too hot and sweating like crazy, my hands have been perfectly dry in these gloves...they breath exceptionally well. I've owned several Black Diamond gloves and they they hit the mark on dexterity better than Marmots, but I think the leather is a bit more durable with the Marmots. Although, I'm probably 30 days into them and they are already showing pretty good signs of wear on the finger seams...I'm a snowboarder so this is a common problem. My biggest recommendation to improve this glove would be to make the insulating portion of the liner removable for faster drying and make it more versatile in a range of temperatures and activities. I think this would be the perfect glove if you're an inbounds skier and don't have super sweaty hands and have a spring glove for warmer days.
