The AK 3L glove used to be one of the best gloves on the market, and then for some reason Burton radically changed the fit of this glove and it is now borderline terrible. But it's not all bad. Pros : The shell is fantastic. Other than the gauntlet being too short for my liking (it's practically an under glove size), it's superbly constructed and of course the Gore-Tex makes it waterproof. The included power-stretch liner is also great. I use this glove for driving and to wear while putting on my boots, etc. in the parking lot. The styling of the newly designed glove is great also. The black and red work nicely together. Cons : The liner. The liner. The liner. I understand Burton's desire to make this glove a bit more dexterous, but the fit is so tight that it makes the glove too cold to wear in anything other than spring conditions, which is not what this glove is designed for. I wear a large glove, but even the XL is far too tight for me to wear comfortably. Any of the great features of this glove are completely outweighed by this major design flaw. Bottom line : skip this glove, and buy something else. If you must own Burton, try the AK under glove or the Pinnacle XCR.

I've been using these pants for three seasons now, and they are still in near perfect condition. They are expensive but well worth the money.

I posted 2 years ago that these were fantastic pants after 3 years of riding in them. Well, another 2 seasons have gone by, and I'm still using the same pair. Sure, they're a bit stained, and I had to replace the velcro in the legs, but I still love 'em and the still keep me dry! I'll probably ride these again this season and then turn them over to my little bro and get myself a new pair. Some people complain that the pockets are too small, but I think they're perfectly sized. I can fit my driver's license, credit card, cash, and my car key in there, and everything else goes in the backpack.
