Best Gloves Ever. Period

Ahem.....I quote "I wouldn’t call them warm and they’re definitely not waterproof," Not the best glove review was it?

Try Hestra, you will reaslise what real gloves should feel like. Expensive, but so so worth it.
 
Quality water proofing will fix that right up, there cheap enough to where you could easily buy two of them and keep an extra pair in your pack.
 
Best park gloves I've found to date:

And they're $5 at Home Depot. Score.
 
THIS, plus you can get hestra work gloves for like 20 bucks that are super legit!

I had some extra water proof leather hestra goo from some bomb ass mittens. Used the rest of it on the work gloves and now those things are like a 100$ pair of gloves!
 
I actually prefer the all leather insulated gloves because they stay waterproof much better. I got a pair at the beginning of 2010 season to work park crew in, and they've lasted through this season. Using both liquid silicone and wax based waterproofing made these gloves the perfect pair. hands stayed completely dry and warm on the coldest Colorado and Utah days.

word. spending 100 bucks on fancy gloves is stupid imo, you can just get something that works almost as well for 20.
 
See, no I massively get your point. Why bother spending allot on gloves if others will make do?! I thought that until I had Hestra's. Could a $20 glove reeeallly do as well the overpriced Hestras?? I don't mind spending good cash on something that will help the smiles throughout the day.
 
I love my Sno-sealed Kincos for lift serve days and as a backup for backcountry. On the way up, though, I wear some cheapo $10 BD gloves because I get very warm.
 
I seriously rate my Cactus SPG's... all leather, except I suspect they're made of stolen pieces of Batman's suit then waterproofed by rubbing them with Unicorn fat and Simon Dumont's tears. I suspect they would stop bullets, and speeding trains. They are extremely tough gloves.
 
Yeah, I found the most warmth for my hands this winter were: Colombia liner gloves, old sock cut off at the ankle and a hole cut in it for the thumb, and a swany norse shell.
 
MITTENS! but if i do use gloves, i usually just pick up Kombi gloves at my local store for 15 bucks, and they're pretty good...There are also armada gloves which where pretty good.
 
Yep, MITTENS. But I really like the more dexterity of a glove. Still gonna preach the Hestra Seth 3 finger.

Stupid expensive, but so so worth it.
 
after getting my dakine mittens jacked while I was taking a shit, I got Armada Eight Mittens. Best Gloves/Mittens/Handwear that I have ever used/worn. They are super warm, I have yet to get wet hands skiing, and they look sick
 
there are days when kincos aren't warm enough but that being said i still wore them almost every day last season. they stay a bit warmer if you bake and waterproof them properly but if you want the best warmth, waterproofing, comfort, protection, and durability then hestra vertical cut freerides cannot be topped
 
Well, living in PA this winter), we didn't get that much super freezing weather, but there was an urban day that was like 15-18 ºF and my hands were sweating
