Flylow Ridge: Gloves Reviews
Yup, these lightly insulated work gloves are basically the same ones you'll find at the local hardware store. The difference is, this Denver company bakes them in beeswax, a natural water repellent....

Good for BackcountryWe loved the subtle pinstripe herringbone pattern and the ceramic scuff guards on the ankles. And thanks to the waterproof/breathable eVent fabric, they didn't get stuffy on an...
Removable wool liner. Remarkably supple. And the leather is made without any synthetic dyes or harmful metals. hestrausa.com
Where I live, we do the Santa Fe Double in springtime: a morning ski tour followed by a bike ride. This lightweight, neoprene-cuffed, Gore Windstopper glove was my favorite for both. dakine.com

No sloppy fit here. Because the Cocoon's Gore-Tex barriercalled Xtrafitis permanently fused to the rest of the glove, the inner layer never shifts around annoyingly. scottusa.com
The folks up in Vancouver have created an Armani suit for your hands. With the dexterity of a spring glove and the warmth of a mitten (there's a removable fleece liner), the Gore-Tex-and-leather-...
