The search for the ideal Spring skiing glove is over. For years, I looked for a lightweight, lightly insulated glove for those late-season days when a regular ski glove provides too much warmth. I tried products from a range of manufacturers. And in the end, the best I found comes from a big name in base layers, Smartwool. <\/p>\n
Out of the box, these gloves impress. Well constructed and with a set of well-thought-out features, the Smartwool Spring Gloves look ready and able to tackle the slopes, a snowshoe into the woods or other activities when the temps hover in the 30s and above. <\/p>\n
The Smartwool Spring Gloves pack a bunch of cool features into a compact package. The fingers and palm are constructed from a waterproof Graflex\u00ae leather. In tests, water beads up and rolls right off. The company backs the thumb with suede (more comfortable for wiping your nose or the granola bar crumbs from the corners of your mouth). The back of the glove is stretch nylon for ease of movement. And the wrist panel wraps around your hand and uses hook and loop to cinch down tightly under the cuff of your jacket.
