What are the Vertical Cut CZone 5-Finger Gloves?
They're waterproof, windproof gloves designed for skiing and snowboarding. The Vertical Cut CZone Gloves suit various mountain terrains and feature a snug-fitting, durable design built with soft materials for improved handling.
What are they made of?
The outer is made with a combination of goat leather and Hestra three-layer dobby polyester melange.
Goat leather is more supple than standard leather, providing incredible durability and softness. It's impregnated with a water-resistant treatment for increased weather protection, helping to keep snow and water at bay. The three-layer dobby is a durable woven material made using a blend of polyester and elastane. This material is waterproof, windproof, lightweight and stretchy for ample freedom of movement and provides good breathability for enhanced temperature regulation.
The CZone Contact membrane creates a waterproof barrier to prevent water from getting through whilst allowing efficient and effective permeability, meaning vapour from sweat and condensation on the inside can still escape to the outer layer of the material, ensuring that you won't be left feeling clammy during intense sessions.
The gloves are insulated with synthetic G-Loft insulation made from thin polyester fibres. G-Loft is exceptional at retaining heat, even in wet conditions (unlike down insulation). Though warm, it's still highly breathable and quick drying, which will help regulate temperature and work in conjunction with the outer materials and lining to prevent moisture from building up.
Brushed polyester Bemberg lines the inside, which feels lovely and soft against the skin - rather luxurious when you're out in freezing temperatures! Again, it's light and flexible, so it won't feel too bulky or restrict movement, meaning you'll still have the precision to handle kit or ski poles.
What are their features?
The outseams of these gloves enhance comfort and allow a tighter pole grip. They have a wrist strap to help prevent you from losing a glove or dropping them when using your mobile phone or a GPS device.
The Vertical Cut CZone Gloves also come with a carabiner, meaning you can attach your gloves to a kit bag, backpack or jacket when you're not wearing them.
Shock-absorbing foam on the backhand provides a little extra protection for fast-paced or higher-level activities.
Neoprene cuffs with pullers encase the wrist nicely without feeling restrictive.
