| I fully expect to still be wearing these gloves in 30 + years -- making the cost, on an annualized basis, just $1.67/year. Much less than a pack of Lucky Strikes. With a stylish two-tone leather construction, I also expect them to take on a nice patina over time; a functional reminder of all the chutes, hucks, and travels I've experienced over time. Seriously, these gloves rock! They breath well and retain natural body heat. What more can you ask from a glove? The Fall Line's short under-the-sleeve elastic cuff and minimalist design will sell you on the idea that good handwear doesn't need to be bulky and should never involve battery packs. I'm convinced that Hestra has fully mastered the art of glove making during the company's 70 year history. In my granddaddy's words, those are some "handsome" work gloves. WTF? |

| These gloves are the greastet thing that has ever happened to hands since the invention of fingers! Soft, supple, sexcellent...the list goes on forever. Great fit, warmer than the rear end of a cow. So stylish chairs will de-rail so passengers can get a better look. Buy them. Buy them now! |

| I've wore these glove's a couple of times including a rainy/wet day in Tahoe and 15 degre day and they ket my hands warm and dry in both conditions. Highly suggest using the Hestra leather balm, be aware that this will darken the color of the bronco/natural gloves. I kinda think they look a little better though. And yes they are very comfortable. |

| I've been using these for over a year, rock solid gloves & much warmer than a normal spring glove. I ended up using these in really cold, under 10 degree weather just because they're so much more dextrous than my heavy duty winter gloves. Held up fine, plenty warm, great for the skin up as well as the way down. These are also pretty waterproof if you treat the leather...if not they'll soak water up like a sponge. |

| Ultimate flying gloves 07-19-08 |

| This is my second review. I am not a skier. My friends and I fly open cockpit ultralight trikes. I found the gloves and this website by Googgling red gloves. I bought a one of the last red pair for myself and was so pleased I bought my friend a pair of the Bronco/Natural color.
When the 50% offer showed up in my email I just had to buy one pair for a female friend. These are the finest (bar none) gloves I have ever owned and my friends agree. I fly in freezing temperatures and my hands are always warm. Look no further. Backcountry has the best glove for the best price.
Thanks for your help Mike M. |

| I fly an open cockpit ultralight trike and the gloves are everything I wanted. I ordered a pair for myself and liked them so much I bought a pair for my friend who is also a flyer. I did the measurement as instructed and got 7.5 inches. I sized up to a 9 but they were still too small. Size 10 fit perfect and I got size 11 for my friend and that worked out well. If the glove is just a little tight the lining will pack down and the leather will stretch. So wear them a couple of hours before you decide to send them back for a larger pair. I'm telling you folks I can work the buttons on my cell phone and my radios easily. Best gloves I've ever owned. Be careful when you put the Hestra cream on the gloves. The material on the back to protect the knuckles will bleed into the red. |

| I just got back from 4 solid days of powder skiing in Jackson Hole. These gloves exceeded my expectations by a long shot. They get soaking wet on the outside but the inside still stays warm and dry even in 50 mph 20 degree windy conditions up top. The fit is rather small though so be warned. I measured 8.5 inches around my hand and the 9 feels a bit tight but it definitely wore-in this past week. I definitely recommend these! |

| Nice snug fit. These are going to make great Spring gloves. Remains to be seen how durable the palms are going to be as they've already gotten sort of scuffed up after only five or six days of use on the hill. However, they're comfortable, have been surprisingly H20 resistant, and have done exactly what I bought them for so far. |

| These are the most comfortable gloves I have owned, period! I haven't had the chance to try them in really cold weather but so far I've been satisfied with their warmth. The leather and construction allows a suppleness unsurpassed. I can turn the tiny volume knob on the car radio, pick up coins, and comfortably drink a cup of coffee with them on.
The only caution I would advise is to try them on in a retail outlet first because of small size gradations. I ordered a size "9" (Large) which was too small and had to send them back for a size "10" (also Large). |

| The bottom line is that these gloves are fantastic. They are warm, durable, and provide an amazing ammount of dexterity. Really, there isn't much more that you could ask for in a glove. Two things to watch out for though: First, order a size up. According to their mesurments I should be between a 7 and 8, but a 9 fits much more comfortably. This is my second pair of hestras and the same was true with my first. Also, be sure to use the leather balm often, if you don't they will loose their waterproofing and get soaked. Enjoy. |

| i wear a size large men's glove and the sizing chart suggested a '9' was equivalent to men's large. these gloves are comfortable, streamlined, functional but a 9 has got to be a medium. consequently if they fit i would be very happy. instead i'm frustrated and encourage anyone to order larger than they think |
