Review on Dakine Scout Gloves Large Carbon Men's Accessories in Gloves & Mittens by Dave Brummet

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Insanely warm and built like a tank

Extremely warm. Wearing it without a liner would be warm enough for most Iowa days. With an inner lining, I would only wear them over longer distances when the temperature is below zero (like skiing or playing football). I still get warm, but they're too much insulation for me for any other purpose. I have long, narrow fingers so the XL size is perfect for the length. There's a bit more room across the width, but I think it should if I ever plan on wearing them with earbuds. Very well constructed. I expect them to last forever. The goggle scraper is an interesting touch. The nose patch on the right thumb doesn't seem to pick up enough except for a small amount of snot/Switzerland. It was almost the only disappointment I experienced. I think I would have preferred the more absorbent double sided snot plasters. Otherwise great work Dakine!

Pros
  • Outstanding general characteristics
Cons
  • There are nuances
