Glove/Mitt Fitting Instructions:
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.
Race-Tec Technology
The most supreme standard of Reusch's premium racing gloves combining functional characteristics and expertise highlights. The especially adapted racing-cut defines it's functionality. The construction and technical design inside the palm are devised precisely, guaranteeing maximum grip and tactility. Specific selected materials support the glove's resistance in critical areas. Amplified seams toughen every glove and add stability.
Pro Flex
Technology derived from motorcycle racing gloves that effectively combines protection and full motility. The back of the glove stays flexible due to a flex pocket dividing the back of the glove into two layers fixed on two sides. When bending the hand, these layers can move smoothly without limitations. Absolutely new is the Lycra insert connecting the layers that allows movement of the hand and keeps the snow out.
Silicone Printed Reinforced Palm
Japanese cowhide leather on the palm is reinforced for wear resistance and durability. These reinforcements are printed with silicone for a controlled and direct grip.
Ground Control
Slim rails on the back of the fingers, increases the athletes’ balance and control when touching the snow in carving turns.
Safety Unit
A newly developed one-piece protection system protects the entire upper backhand by dispersing and so reducing impacts. Additional toughness on the backhand comes from the unleashed crotch construction and the composite knuckle protection.
Thumb Guard
Thumb Guard™ protects more than 80% of the highly-stressed thumb area with ceramic printed protection elements without hindering the flexibility of the thumb.
Wrist Shield
A pre-formed composite guard around the seamless neoprene cuff protects the wrist area from impacts when hitting the gates.
Composite Knuckle Protection
The well-known and highly established symbol for high-class racing protection! A one-piece hard-plastic panel protects the knuckle area from painful impacts.
Padding Panels
The whole backhand is armed with silicone padded and ceramic printed elements in carbon look, providing uncompromising safety between the gates.
Primaloft® Gold Eco Insulation
Boasts the ultimate in warmth-to-weight thermal efficiency with an environmental conscience. Featuring 55% post-consumer recycled fibers, this insulation offers performance you can trust even in the wettest weather, great packability, outstanding softness and an easy-care package.
