How do you keep your hands from getting cold and keep them warm while spending the entire day outside skiing and snowboarding?
I shall offer my thoughts… my experience and expertise:
The blood vessels that deliver blood to your hands and fingers come very close to the outer surface of the skin on the inside of your wrist. They need to be protected and insulated.
Your skin has to breathe!
The glove needs to balance it’s “water-proofness” by focusing as much on interior sweat moisture production as exterior water penetration. Forget “waterproof” membranes unless it’s really wet, where air temperature is not the problem.
Somebody asked me the other day, “What is the warmest ski glove?”
The person asking the question, What is the warmest ski glove, is actually asking a very complicated question, which should be answered with a series of other questions and comments:
1) What do you intend to do, specifically, with these gloves? Resort ski, backcountry ski, snowmobile, snow kite, snow ball fight, winter construction, ski patrolling, sit-out-in-the-cold-and-drink-beer…
2) Do your hands tend to sweat a lot? If they do, you need to be very concerned about the terrible cold that most-of-the-time follows hand sweats in very cold conditions.
The reality and correct answer is, the warmest ski glove IN MOST CONDITIONS AND ON MOST DAYS is one that is dry, has sufficient insulation, but not too much, and the best dexterity and grip for the current activity that you are undertaking.
So my official answer is, glove with the best insulation that breathes the best.
Nobody enjoys taking their ski gloves off for any reason. Not only do your fingers get numb, but taking gloves on and off is just a pain, especially if you prefer under-the-cuff gloves.
Hand Out Gloves are in a category all their own. They’re leather, waterproof, breathable gloves that can be easily zipped open so you can do things like take a pic or tie a fishing line while keeping your hands warm.
What’s the deal with these gloves?”
Aside from the clever zipper, they’re also durable gloves made to last. They’re made from leather and they have waterproof, breathable Hipora linings.
It’s great on the lift, in the wind, in lots of powder–you won’t lose your gloves.
The zipper is perfect! Easy to zip and unzip.
You can use the zipper as a vent to let heat out and stop sweating.
They really are waterproof and the leather is nice.
They are really warm.
They dry really fast because you can unzip and have more air flow through the whole glove.
Also saw some new synthetic gloves and noeprene gloves from HandOut at Goskand Ski Shop. They look awesome and are slightly more affordable than the leather.
Yep, the HandOut gloves are my new favorites!! I love them. I’m excited about this simple, great glove on the Goskand Ski Shop and loving using them daily at the ski resort and in the ski cross country
Price – $129
P.S. Is me getting paid for that advertise ? Nope, they’re just great gloves. Am I getting paid to write this review ? Nope- just stoked on gloves!
