What are the Guide Gloves?
These are waterproof, breathable gloves that provide maximum comfort and protection from the elements. They're the perfect gloves for all-round, all-year use and gnarly adventures such as mountaineering, ice climbing or skiing, where you'll need a glove that covers all bases in terms of durability, protection and reliability.
What are they made of?
The Guide Gloves are made with a waterproof Drilite® insert that offers maximum protection without compromising breathability.
Just to give you an idea, Drilite® has a minimum of 20,000mm Hydrostatic Head and exceeds 20,000g/sqm/24h for breathability. Need we say more?
The back of the hand is lined with fibre pile, and there's a designated nose wipe panel made of reversed suede, helping you to catch those pesky sniffles without chafing or damaging the skin from continuous friction.
The palm is reinforced with goatskin leather to increase abrasion resistance and grip, and lined with microfleece for next-to-skin comfort and warmth.
What are their features?
Fingers and thumbs are articulated and pre-curved to create a more comfortable, natural fit that promotes better flexibility and grip for handling equipment such as axes or ski poles. Roll-top fingers provide further durability, while the single-handed drawcords seal out the elements easily.
The wrist tethers are removable if you'd rather not use them or want to cut down a little weight, and finally, each glove has karabiner carry loops, allowing you to hook them onto a belt loop or backpack when they're not being worn.
