Measure the circumference (in inches) around the widest part of the hand (this is usually at the knuckles) not including the thumb.
Sizing Tips:
Please note that all size charts are estimated measurements given to best determine your size. Here are some things to keep in mind when you are choosing a glove:- How you like your gloves to fit (i.e. tight or loose). If your hand measures in between sizes, you may want to go up or down a size according to your preferences.
- The pinch test: You should be able to pinch about 1/4" at the end of the fingertips, to ensure space for circulation and dexterity.
- Test how they feel while gripping a ski pole. Most of the gloves that we offer are pre-curved for the best grip while skiing.
Description & Features
Giant slalom tends to give ski mittens their most formidable challenge. Working with Swedish alpine skier Sara Hector, Hestra has produced this ultra-tough mitt. The GSL Race Comp Mitt is extra hardwearing and protective on the backhand, with the flexibility you need for a comfortable ski pole grip. It is sewn in Hestra’s durable goatskin with synthetic suede reinforcement and ceramic material over knuckles and fingers for extra durability. The fingers are pre-curved and have outward-facing seams for optimum grip, while flexible shock absorption protects the backhand from impacts. The lining is soft, brushed polyester, and Primaloft Gold synthetic insulation keeps you warm and wicks away moisture. A leather strap with Velcro makes for a perfect fit around the wrist.
