Black Diamond Prodigy Glove - Men's
Failed after 1 week

Ranked #246 - Ski Gloves
June 2, 2008
I bought these mid-season for both resort and backcountry skiing. In less than 10 days the plastic pulley that opens/closes the gauntlet broke. This cheap plastic piece actually wore through on both gloves. The gloves kinda worked for another week, but after 14 days both gloves have drawcords that are frayed/broken and the gauntlet cannot close.
It's really a shame because I've always thought BD made the best gloves, but these are an amazing disappointment. After 10+ years with BD gloves, my next pair will be something else...
