Why We Built The Backcountry GORE-TEX All-Mountain Mitten
Cinch down the Backcountry GORE-TEX All-Mountain Mitten and break trail on powdery mornings, knowing that blustery snow has no chance of interfering with your warmth. We made the All-Mountain Mitten with GORE-TEX waterproofing for dependable protection from winter's weather. A grippy goatskin leather palm secures your hold on ski poles, and the gauntlet style covers your wrists from the elements.

Cozy Warm and Dry
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I bought these after losing an old pair of Hestra “claws”. Only got a couple days of spring skiing in but they held up great to a spring snow dump and a slushy warm day. Almost too hot if it’s above 40 degrees F.

Best gloves I’ve ever had !
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Really warm, no need for a liner, easy to get on, easy to strap your jacket, the bottom wraps around your jacket, I expect using these for the next 10+ years

Leather is cheap

Ripped after one use. the palm is leather is light and can't withstand contact with any snow.

little to no insulation
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
they look nice, but there is little to no insulation in these, so would not recommend for cold conditions. They look good, but the function is poor and not worth the money.

Works for ski mittens
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Fits a little snug especially with glove liners. Primary use is skiing but have used when building out door rink with fire hoses. love the leashes to go around wrist. Biggest complain is that the liner inside is not sewn in, and so if not careful when pulling hand out it pulls out them or fingers section, and can get stuck when putting back on. This is something that i think would be good to be addressed in future. Overall solid mitten for skiing

Great fit, but cold
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
This is my second season using these mittens (resort, 20+ days a year). I like the fit and how the look. Seems durable too. the only problem is they are not warm enough on cold days.

Backcountry Goretex snow mitten review
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Purchased Men's size Large, hand is 229mm around measured at V of thumb across palm and back of hand with Tape measure, coffee color. Run true to size, liked the cuff really well with bulky ski jacket. Nice keeper straps with elastic. I don't tighten my mittens so I can't speak to the elastic cord. Unfortunately, I'll be returning after just three days of use. The first two days, in colder 20's fahrenheit my fingers were marginally cold if not cold. Third day it was warm skiing 34 degrees and wet and my hand got wet and I mean very wet. I did not remove my mittens they just didn't stay dry. The insulation is also very "dense" feeling. I think this would be an acceptable product, but I'm used to backcountry branded gear being exceptional, not just acceptable. I'll be returning and dropping more coin to have Hestra's again, which have treated me very well for years. If it's any interest, I'm replacing brand new Dakine mittens because they wouldn't get a one star in my opinion. the cuff is all WHACKY, so maybe I'm just a very picky person??, Sorry Backcountry. I'll try again later.

warm

They are super warm no need to wear liner gloves under them. The only thing is I feel like they got stretched out after the first wear so maybe size down

Great Style and Feel
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
Picked up a pair of these gloves for the coming season. I haven't got to get out on the mountain with them too much yet but they feel great and are packed with features. First off, they look great. I got the pika/black color and they couldn't look more clean. They feel great when you put them on, the liner is super soft and they're toasty. I got the medium size and the gauntlet comes halfway up my forearm, there's a strap around your wrist you can tighten and a pull cord at the end of the gauntlet that you can tighten too, both are easy to operate with the mittens on. My favorite little detail is the loops that are at the top of the mitten, so you can hang them with the opening facing downwards and really let them dry out after a long day.

Great style/function, durability suspect
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
These mittens look, feel, and fit great. The gauntlet style is easy to pull on and off, and the wrist strap and drawcord allow for a customized fit. I used these in conjunction with a pair of Burton Touchscreen liners and my hands stayed dry and warm all day on the mountain. The leashes are comfortable and unobtrusive so you never have to worry about losing them when taking them off. My biggest complaint and cause for concern is the goatskin for the fingertip portion of the mitten is very thin. In my first time using them on some groomers with mild ice, the leather is already torn/ripped. For the price point, I expected better durability out of these.
