5 stars after 5 years
Waited for these to wear out to write a review. I’ve used these almost exclusively for 5 years for backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, ice climbing , mixed climbing and general rope work. They held up generally well given the use they’ve seen and have become my favorite winter gloves. They were quick to form and mold to my hands and become very comfortable with great dexterity. They held out water well over the first few years until I slowly wore holes in them. I did make sure I re applied nikwax or other types of leather conditioner and repellant every season. These were great gloves for all uses. I run fairly warm and these were great for my normal temperatures while moving uphill while skiing, and moving vertically on ice pitches. They are not the warmest for standing around or at a belay but were good enough for me down to about 5 or 10 degree F. Any lower than that and I swapped to my mitts. Overall very happy with these and sad to retire my first pair but luckily I just purchased a second pair to start breaking in this week. Was hoping to post some photos of the 5 year old ones because they are quite a sight! But can’t seem to find photo option on the reviews.

Fits like a glove
These glove feel great, they fit perfectly and have a great feel. Quality materials throughout, give me great warmth and dexterity. Perfect for a late fall belay, or taking the leaves. Highly recommended, I’m on my third pair, and these are the best yet! Thanks Black Diamond! Hedgie

Fab gloves
Kingpin gloves are soft supple leather, warm fuzzy lining; these gloves allow great dexterity and motion while keeping the outside outside. Fab light gloves for activity below freezing. And when the temperature really drops, then the Guide gloves are the best! Thanks BD

Bomber Gloves
I haven't had these outside yet. But they seem to have a perfect blend of durable yet dexterous leather, and a comfortable amount of insulation. I work ski patrol on the east coast and these are going to be great work gloves. Thanks bd.

Best ever!
These Kingpin gloves are by far the best gloves I have ever owned. I wear them every day summer and winter. Great for bucking hay bales to shoveling snow. Still haven't worn a hole in them.

Best gloves for those who want to feel what they touch.
Not very warm but who cares. You can ice climb and ski all day in these bad boys. I want your fingers freeze over change out for the guide gloves.
