  Performance & Use Profile

  • Ideal Conditions: Cold but not extreme — typical resort days, rope tows, tree runs, mid-season powder sessions.

  • Fit & Feel: The mitt format gives finger warmth by grouping fingers, while the cuff and shell design make it easy to shove on and retain warmth.

  • Durability: The robust cowhide leather and seam layout make this mitt well suited for repeated mountain use.

  • Limitations: In extremely low temperatures, the 3/5 insulation may be marginal — consider liners or backup in very harsh cold.
