Shred Gloves & Mittens

SHRED ski racing gloves and mitts are built specifically for the impacts and repeated wear of alpine race training. SLYTECH™ protective foam covers key impact areas around the knuckles and thumb, while SuperFabric® reinforcement adds abrasion resistance where repeated contact with gates can quickly wear conventional glove materials.

SHRED combines this protective construction with features designed around actual race use. Tacky Grip™ palms provide secure contact with the ski pole, PrimaLoft® insulation adds warmth without excessive bulk, and the wrist construction is designed to integrate with race arm guards. Racers can choose between glove and mitten versions depending on their preference for dexterity or warmth.

What Makes SHRED Ski Racing Gloves & Mitts Different?

• SLYTECH™ Protection: Energy-absorbing SLYTECH™ foam protects the knuckles and thumb against impacts encountered while clearing gates.
• SuperFabric® Reinforcement: Abrasion-resistant SuperFabric® protects high-wear areas, adding durability for repeated gate training and competition.
• Tacky Grip™ Palm: High-friction palm material provides a secure connection with the ski pole for confident grip and control.
• Arm Guard Compatibility: A dedicated wrist overlay helps the glove or mitt interface smoothly with forearm protection, an especially useful detail for racers wearing arm guards during gate training.
• PrimaLoft® Insulation: Lightweight synthetic insulation provides warmth while limiting unnecessary bulk around the hand and pole grip.

Choosing SHRED Racing Gloves vs. Mitts

Choose the SHRED Ski Race Protective Glove when independent finger movement and direct pole feel are priorities. Its individual finger construction provides greater dexterity while retaining the protective features needed for gate training. Choose the protective mitt when warmth is the priority, with the mitten construction keeping the fingers together within a larger insulated compartment.

Both styles use the same core SHRED race technologies, so the decision primarily comes down to the racer's preference for dexterity versus warmth. Whichever construction you choose, the fit should be secure without restricting circulation and comfortable when gripping a ski pole. For racers regularly wearing forearm protection, SHRED's arm-guard-compatible wrist design provides an additional race-specific advantage over a conventional ski glove.
