A unique glove that fits a specific need. 01-16-09
FIRST, BEYOTCHES! Finally a decent MID-WEIGHT glove made of fine leather. I"m a fan of leather gloves. That's all i own. Most light to mid-weight gloves seem to be of the synthetic variety so i'm glad Armada ( a wicked good ski company, too, by the way) has made these. The Convict has a very unique design, both in their available color combinations and liberal use of grommets as a functional design element. Most importantly, they made these gloves with just two pieces to create the palm area - so there is only one seam on the palm. Other gloves with multiple panels on the palm seem to wear poorly over time. i bought size L, using their sizing chart and the fit is perfect - snug, low profile, maintaining dexterity while still insulating well. i used them yesterday in 36degree weather and they were quite warm. i assume they would even hold up to 15degree weather. I now have a pair of cold weather gloves, these mid-weight armadas, and a light weight bc.com pair so i'm set for years. These will make those Hestra buyers poo in their pants. guaranteed.
These gloves are insane! The fit is perfect, the leather is nice and they are not very thick so it provides great hand feel. I use them for snowboard and ski and I am truly impressed with the quality and most important the look. I haven't had a single seam blow out in over 50 days on hill this year. I am going to buy the new ones as well.
For a midweight low profile glove they are pretty warm. worked fine for me in 30 degree weather. I originally ordered a large but had to return the for an XL. The fingers were a little too short. and it was too snug of a fit, but the XL's are perfect!!
