Happy Customer
I was looking for gloves that were water proof and would be durable yet provide warmth even without the liners. These gloves met what I was looking for and the liner quality, wrist straps, and pull ties all exceeded my expectations.

great alpine gloves
This is my second pair - I use size Small (without liners) for lighter conditions and Medium (with liners) for colder ones. They are superb winter/alpine climbing gloves - warm, very precise on climbing gear, never got wet in them!

Real Workhorse
Very well made. Holds up well under tough conditions when abrasion's a concern. Totally windproof and waterproof. Warm enough when active alone and when things slow down wear the liner. Should last for years.
