Review on ๐Ÿ”๏ธ Mountain Hardwear Exposure Light GTX by Stacey Growe

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic gloves for working outdoors in cold weather.

Incredible gloves. They have: 1) pit skin. Pittards goes on and on. I have Pittard gloves that are many years old and still work great. Pittards makes its own gloves but also sells its leather to other manufacturers for use in a variety of gloves where supple, thin, durable and abrasion-resistant leather is required. For example, I have Pearl Izumi cycling gloves with Pittards leather. Simply wash in water with conditioning soap. 2) Gore-Tex lining. I got my first Gore-Tex product many years ago, when Gore-Tex first appeared for use in clothing, an incredibly expensive (for the time) LL Bean parka. And I'm still wearing this parka forty years later. I don't think a breathable fabric - and many have tried it - beats Gore-Tex for durability and pure waterproofing. 3) Primaloft airgel insulation. They are as thin and comfortable as possible. These are great gloves for sports and country work. Just great. And they're thin enough to be carried comfortably with trekking or ski poles. I bought them unisex and although my hands are not big for a man they are just the right size for these gloves. I can't imagine many men would take fewer than many of these gloves. Media in the same gloves looks good on my wife, but I feel cramped. Finally, Mountain Hardwear makes a variety of gloves under the "Exposureโ€ brand. They are on the thinner and shorter end of this spectrum.
