Swany X-Change II Glove - Men's - 2008 BCS

Sweeeeet glove. Warm, comfortable, looks cool...what more do you need? Perhaps a little pricey but still cheaper than some others. Love 'em.

I have had this glove for several years, used it primarily for skiing and snowboarding in Colorado and New Hampshire. Overall it has been a great glove. It has kept we quite warm for years. My hands would get a bit cold on the lifts, but they warmed right up as soon as I got off and started boarding (and I have cold hands). They have been decently waterproof. There were many times that the outsides of the gloves were just crusted over with ice, but they still helped to keep me from freezing.

I do have a beef with the glove though. They turn inside out easily when you take them off, and they are not the easiest to get back in. The index finger on my left hand has never gone back in correctly no matter how much I struggle to make it sit right. It is certainly still usable, but it an annoyance. I have to really grab the finger tip when taking them off and make sure I grab the inner liner layer as well.

Dexterity with the glove on is quite good for an insulated glove of this type. It has certainly been better than every other cheaper glove I have tried. I haven't tried many high end gloves, but I was happy with the dexterity of this one.

The material on the back of the thumbs is good for wiping snot while on the slopes. I wiped quite a bit and at the end of the day, the material appeared clean (I sure hope it just froze and fell off).

The inner liner has stayed comfortable over many uses. Definitely a winner there. Nice and fuzzy, makes it feel warm.

The cinches around the cuff and wrist are quite good and easy to use, easy to get off with gloves on.

All in all a great glove. It is a little pricey, though it is very popular and is a great buy on sale.

I got these gloves about a month ago, and they are excellent. Great construction, intuitive features and they seem like they will be very warm. Now all I need is some snow...
