Review on North Face Mens Glove Black by John Patel

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Best of 3 pairs I tested

I want thin, light ski gloves for the winter. I have some very good glove covers that I use alone and they are always warm enough but very bulky. They have warm, padded gloves, but they are neither waterproof nor windproof, so they cannot be worn alone. My goal was to find a thin, warm, wind and waterproof glove that I could wear while skiing and then when it gets really cold, I put protective covers over them. I ordered three pairs of Etip style gloves: Flydigo touchscreen gloves (left) - dragon eye sealskin (left) - north face peak (left) Flydigo gloves were thin and not even remotely waterproof with ripped seams from the package. The sealskin was really nice, well fitting, fully waterproof and windproof, but the ribbed structure looked and felt weird, like a dirt and lint catcher. waterproof/windproof and has a nice smooth texture that seems to repel the elements well. They fit my arm snugly but are still loose enough to be easy to put on and take off even when my hands are a little sweaty (they are very warm). I can recommend her unreservedly.

Pros
  • WINTER CLOTHING. This highly versatile softshell glove features a U|R Powered touchscreen compatible palm for optimal hiking performance.
Cons
  • Negative impression
