Great gloves at an awesome price, started in Utah by a skier. I have a couple pairs of them now and they are well worth the money and have held up well for multiple seasons. Would definitely recommend these to anyone who wants to support an actual skiing brand and have great customer service and a warranty.

Since towropes always win I'll just be using a few pairs of leather choppers and wool liners

Went through tons and tons of gloves, cheap and expensive. My hands would ALWAYS get numb. I probably have Raynauds haha. I ended up dropping some cash on North Face Himalayan mittens, the 850g fill weight that they don't make anymore (one now is 600g wt). The warmest things ever. So light and compactable too. Anything over 30 degrees though and I have to take them off- too warm.

Glad not everyone in this thread is an idiot.
Literally the best glove you're gonna get until you start spending hundreds of dollars for a glove that will only be suited for Alaska. And even then, the Kinco will out perform when it comes to durability.

Yeah I think pretty much anything will wet out if it's exposed long enough. All leather is just way more comfortable to wear. I have some gore-tex mits and they pretty much just live in the bottom of my gear bin.
If you are really going to be out in the wet for a long time or multiple days in a row you will want a couple pair of gloves or mitts so no reason to break the bank.

Kinco Axemans don't wet out if you take care of them. They're not as comfortable as the 901t and don't have the little sleeve though, but they are a better glove. Cheaper too. I have a pair of both.
and yeah, I have spent a total of $25 on these mitts. I might have to replace the Axemans soon, cause I fucked up one of the mitts, but that's my fault. But my last pair was $5 so it's no biggy.

It's laughable how some people like you on NS talk about people being idiots because they have a different opinion than you... like if you don't have the money Kinco's are the best, but not everyone has the same economic situation or same opinions so to each their own, stop being so negative it won't get you anywhere in life!

Hahahaha okay. It's literally proven through experience that leather is the way to go. Like I said, it really doesn't make a difference until you start spending large amounts of money. I'm not being negative, so grow up. We're talking about mitts. You don't have to get kinco, Session doesn't have to get kinco, I don't really care. But yeah they're one of the best gloves out there and they cost pretty much nothing.
Any globe you like that fits nice and is warm. Don’t be afraid to go expensive. I have $100 gloves but bought this thing called The glove protected by kombi for $6. It bassically is a thing you put over your glove so your gloves don’t get torn up on the rope tow. They also have better grip for rope tows

Oyuki Gloves. Theyre sick as fuck and super warm and comfy. They are a company based in Japan and only Evo carries them in the US this year. Be on the look out for this company to blow up in popularity in coming years.
