The Hestra Powder Gauntlet – 5 Finger is a leather ski glove built for days on the mountain. With a focus on keeping your hands warm, dry and protected, it’s designed to handle chilly conditions and the occasional flare-up of wind or wet snow.
These gloves use a combination of goat leather and polyester on both the outside and inside, giving them a sturdy yet flexible feel. They’ve got Fiberfill and microfleece insulation to hold in heat without feeling bulky, and a removable lining so you can air them out after a long day. The wind- and waterproof membrane keeps moisture and gusts at bay, while still letting sweat escape.
Fiberfill is a synthetic insulation that traps warm air close to your skin, and microfleece is a soft polyester fabric that adds extra warmth and comfort. The waterproof membrane is a thin layer that prevents water from getting in, and its breathable design allows moisture vapor from sweat to pass through, helping your hands stay dry.
