what are the warmest and driest pipe gloves?

2009-11-26T05:13:06Z

i am looking for a new pair of snowboard gloves and was wondering what are the warmest and driest pipe gloves.

I’ve had Burton pipe gloves and Spyder pipe gloves. I like the Spyder gloves more than the Burtons. My Spyders are two years old, still warm and stay fairly dry. I spent about $50 for them but can’t tell you if the have a model name other than pipe glove.

When I go snowboarding for the first time, should I wear one of those skating wrist guards under my gloves?

The ones with a bit of a plastic guard on the wrist?

I think it’s a good idea. I know a guy who broke one of his wrists each of the first two times he tried snowboarding. People tend to catch themselves with their hands which is why a broken wrist is probably the most common injury in snowboarding. I’d probably still wear them if they weren’t a little annoying having to carry with you and if I hadn’t already lost two pairs. Anyways, wear them until you’ve gotten the hang of it.

does anybody know a site where I can find women’s snowboarding white gloves?

Brands – DaKine, North Face, Burton, etc. Look for gloves that are GoreTex and you will have dry hands. Also look for a very high gauntlet that you can pull up over your jacket to keep the snow out of the cuff.

Something more on these gloves please!

You’ll definitely want to find a pair of gloves that are very waterproof, cause wet hands suck big time, personally I like wearing mitt’s with glove liner’s for their warmth and ease of getting on and taking off. Try to go for something with gore-tex or similar material. I have Grenade P.S.M mitts and they have been perfect, they also come with liners. Burton gore-tex, Grenade, or Celtek gloves should make anyone happy, just find the right fit and something that flexes really good when you try it on, cause once it gets colder out, some gloves will stiffen up and be very hard to move in.

My ski gloves are never keeping my hands warm. What should I do?

I am looking for a good pair of snowboarding gloves to buy and I am tired of having gloves that don’t keep my hands warm. Which brands would probably be could to buy?

Goretex mittens. Gortex for waterproofness, mittens are the warmest because your fingers are all together instead of separate.

What are the thin gloves called that you wear under your snowboard gloves?

my friend has some and she said that her hands don’t get cold when she has to take her bulky gloves off. I’m trying to find some online but I don’t know what they’re called

glove liners and THEY DO NOT WORK. Get a warm pair of mittens and you will be fine

Best brands for Ski/Snowboard Gloves?

I’m a first time skier and I have no idea which brands I should go for in terms of ski and snowboard gloves. Anyone know which brands are best as a starting point for me?

I head Kombi, Swany and Salomon were pretty good. I was thinking about getting the Kombi Cyclone II or the Salomon Equipe Race GTX. Anyone know whether these 2 gloves are good or not?
I’m interested in good quality gloves that’s waterproof. Something in the range of $50-$150. I’ve heard cheaper gloves aren’t waterproof and they’ll make your hands freeze when they’re wet.

Over the years, I have noticed that gloves are all for looks. They change the color scheme. I had so many gloves, they all kept my hands warm. Get yourself a pair of gloves that fit snug and have hand warmer pockets and the color is up to you. You will have no problem finding a good deal. Shops are getting rid of last years stuff to make room for this years new stuff. Good luck
