Kinco Lined Heavy Duty Premium Grain & Suede Pigskin Driver with Knit Wrist

I got these gloves before going skiing for the first time. I have really bad body temperature regulation (with my fingers/toes almost always becoming cold no matter the temperature) so it was important for me to find a good pair of gloves. After doing some research online I found these gloves highly recommended by the skiing community and decided to give them a try. They did not disappoint! They kept my hands warm all throughout the day and blocked out water/snow. At the end of the day I even got a compliment for the gloves from another skier. It's a good thing he didn't see me ski because I was on the ground 90% of the time lol.

These are the ultimate ski glove, but not super warm for cold and wet days. I wore these at Vail today, on April, 15 and my fingers were a little cold at the tips on the chair. I know not everyone runs the same temperature, so your experience may differ from mine. Aside from that, it wasn't unbearable and I didn't notice once I got moving. It was dumping snow with no sun either, so I'm sure that was a factor. My hands stayed bone dry and without much sno Seal. They are made extremely well, and would say they are the best value for the $ of any single piece of gear I have. I would recommend these for warmer days, or people who run hot. I have the mitt version and will be using on powder days and colder days. It's good to have a quiver! Go out and get a pair, for the money they are not even an afterthought. They run a full size big, so size down one.

My ski gloves always wear very quickly, and the seams at the fingers in particular split open and I tape them back together to last through the season. So I did a bit of research to find the toughest ski gloves available, and was prepared to make an investment in some really expensive gloves that would last a long time.Well, after searching around and seeing videos and comments on these very inexpensive Kinco gloves (basically 1/8 the price I thought I would pay for high end durable ski gloves) I figured why not try them out.These gloves are super durable, made entirely of leather - I think a combo of pigskin and maybe some cow hide. I also bought some Sno Seal to water proof them and went through the whole process of heating the gloves in the oven, slathering with the sno seal, putting back in the oven to get it absorbed, multiple times.And the result: Holy cow (or I guess in this case holy pig?) I paid about $26 for an super durable, totally waterproof, warm pair of Gloves that are great for skiing. The only downsides I can mention are the fingers are a little stiff, the medium size I bought are a little on the large side, and the cuff in these don’t extend as far down as most ski gloves. But I have to say I’m very happy with these and recommend them.I’ll be taking these on my annual heli ski trip in Canada and my fancy, gear-head friends will definitely get a good chuckle, but I’ll convince them all to get a pair.

These were quite the pleasant surprise Christmas gift from my wife. They are rugged, durable, comfortable, and most importantly, warm! I'm a geologist that logs drill core - they're a little bulky for my writing hand, but other than that, I'm very happy to have them. They are much warmer, comfortable, and durable than any other glove I have had in this price range. They are a bit stiff new, and do have a break in period. They come with waterproofing wax that you rub on the gloves - I followed the instructions for applying the wax according to the tag on the gloves and not the application instructions from the actual wax packet - just empty the packet onto one of the gloves, and while wearing them massage it onto all the outside parts of the gloves, especially the seams. Also, make sure the gloves or the wax is warm while doing this, I did it cold and had to move the gloves near the heater for the wax to soak in. However, the wax and waterproofing did not last long due to my excessive rock handling. Would definitely recommend, and would buy again. My hands tend to get very cold, and these help with that.
