Description of Hestra Vertical Cut Freeride Glove:
The Hestra Vertical Cut Freeride glove is precision-tailored, hand-assembled Swedish hand armor, providing race-performance fit and protection to cliff-hucking out-of-bounds warriors. Its short gauntlet fits neatly under jacket cuffs, while padded knuckles keep you protected from wayward branches and long days on the mountain. Kevlar-stitched stretch Cordura across the back is both flexible and abrasion-proof for season after season of use, while reverse-seamed goatskin palms remain soft, sensitive and pliable even after multiple soakings. A low-profile neoprene wrist closure seals out powder and seals in warmth.

Bottom Line: Trust us when we say that Hestra's Vertical Cut gloves are totally worth it.

great gloves   12-06-04
Myk (3): rank
The Hestra glove fit is excellent and their grip on a ski pole is the best I've ever felt. They may not be the warmest glove when the temps get into single digits but that is something I've not yet tested. Cold January mornings are not too far off. It's nice to have an under-the-sleeve glove again as so many of today's ski gloves are of the over-the-sleeve gauntlet style.

Hestra Gloves are the best out there   10-03-06
Ephblum (9): rank
I haven't used these yet on the slopes, but I did use a different pair of Hestras a good deal last ski season (Dominique Perret Power Dry model), and they are by far my favorite gloves. I'm not sure why but their gloves seem to conform to my hands better than any others, and they have the best pole-grip while still being very warm for their relative lack of bulky insulation. Whoever first came up with the neoprene under cuff design is also a genius. I have two pairs of Hestra and one pair of Mammut under cuff gloves now. I have used Reusch gloves but find the Hestras better all around (fit, durability, warmth, low-bulk, etc.) as skiing-specific gloves.

Great all around   12-29-06
bostondick (7): rank
This glove excels in all conditions, it doesn't matter if you are hiking the pow or, like me, you're in the park - they are great. Super warm and cushy inside, and the low profile cuff slips under your coat sleeve easily. I haven't had them long enough to personally comment on durability but they are Hestra, which in my experience, pretty much don't break down. I highly recommend it if you are looking for one glove to do it all.
