Lost my old pair of the exact same kind after i ordered these. Glad i did as these have still not been shipped to me and its been slightly over a month. But my old ones are still holding strong. Well made!
"A pretty decent glove, but I would totally just spend the the extra $20-$35 dollars."

I used this glove for the last two seasons and I have no major complaints about them. I used them while skiing and snowboarding in both the Midwest and the Rockies and they performed decently well in both conditions. After my first season with them, I ended up purchasing them again as they had begun to wear out. They are on sale right now as I'm typing this for $40 dollars, which is why I am about to purchase them as a gift, but if you plan on using them heavily I would check out another model.
Not the best pair of gloves i've ever gotten. I bought these for snowboarding and i'm disappointed in them. I thought they would be plenty warm since i'm moving around a lot but the wind cuts right through these. The synch straps on these do a good job at keeping snow out, but the gloves just aren't warm enough. I've tried wearing these with another pair of base layer gloves but they were still too cold. The goggle brush on these do work great but i would not recommend these gloves while out on the hill.
These gloves are ok, not great. First of all, if you sweat a lot, they keep all of the sweat in and your hands freeze. Secondly, they are succeptible to wear and tear, and after a little more than one season, I had rips along multiple seams.TNF didn't even want to RMA them, calling in "Normal Wear and Tear", which is nonsense, because gloves are supposed to last more than one year. So I wrote them an angry letter and that resolved it.Still, I cannot recommend these gloves to serious skiers.
I had always used a pair of Columbia gloves, but they would always let the snow in and fail to do their job. These gloves are the real deal. They are incredibly warm, waterproof, and stop the wind from getting in. These are a must buy!
