What are the Glissade Mitts?
They're versatile, high-performance mittens made from durable fabrics. The Glissade Mitts provide waterproof protection and light warmth in one cosy package.
What are they made of?
The outer layer of these mittens uses Pertex Shield® shell material with a BD.dry™ waterproof membrane. The shell material also features a four-way stretch to help increase freedom of movement and comfort.
Pertex Shield® is designed for intense mountain activities and adventurers, prioritising weight and breathability and providing packable waterproof protection without compromising breathability. The versatile, layered construction combines lightweight face fabrics with a waterproof, windproof, and air-permeable membrane. It’s then finished with a PFC-free DWR (durable water repellent) to encourage rain and snow to bead off the material, allowing it to remain as breathable as possible.
A goat-leather palm provides reinforcement in high-wear areas; it's sewn with Kevlar stitching, making these panels as durable and tear-resistant as they can possibly be.
The Glissade Mitts have a fixed fleece liner insulated with Thinsulate® synthetic insulation, which provides warmth even when wet without adding excessive weight and bulk to the design.
What are their features?
A quick-cinching gauntlet helps to keep the heat in and fend off spindrift, slush, and sleet when exploring subzero temperatures.
