I have a pair of gordinis that do this. I used a hand warmer, and it was amazing. unfortunately, the gloves are pretty warm already so my hands started to sweat after a half hour or so.

lowkey, leather, mittin or glove.  cost is not a bug deal as long as its worth it.  extra stiching around the thumb and finger area where you wrap around the ski pole.

-good stitching
-good stitching
-simple design, no extra stitches to come loose (no little pockets/large logos)
-neon colors, someone mentioned tie dye that would be cool, but make sure to make a black pair
-medium-large fit. there are millions of bright park gloves, make some gloves that are warmer
-anything waterproof (goretex or leather)


sick that your asking NS about this

if you need a mitten design to work of off look at the dakine cobra mitt.  it is the most perfect mitten ever.  low profile, short cuff, warm, waterproof, leather and super comfortable.

stash pockets are cool, enough for a lighter or a fun size candy bar

I too would adore a very simple, lowprofile mitten even better it it was tie dyed

I think that leather is the best material for mitts, but if you find something less expensive that works as well, im all for it.

that would be nice, if it could double as a warmish pipe glove that would be even better.

maybe take some notes from cheap gloves? honestly the warmest pair of gloves i've ever had were 8$ Head gloves from Costco, they beat out all my other 80+$ gloves by far, im buying another pair this year for sure.

real warm, not to bulky, leather is worth the money.
My level sixties from a few years ago are still my favorite gloves but they are getting kind of worn out and arent as warm anymore.

all white gortex lined, leather mitt. something nice and soft against the hand a couple interesting seams or somethin like that.
nice and simple, baller as fuck

o yes, and a reinforced area on the mitt where you actually grab your skis, mine are starting to get shredded from sliding up and down my ski when grabbing. you know what i'm sayin?

if you mean that i wouldnt buy your glove i probably would if it had similar qualities and was less bulky and a bit nicer looking. i wouldnt think your glove would be out by this season either? if so then thats some super quick development and production.

if its a mitten, don't put in those finger separators, they make them way cold and impossible to use handwarmers! also..i'm a big proponent of lobster mitts

rainbows, kittens, flowers, hearts, magic, etc... basically everything cute and fantastic should be on gloves.

i agree with this one. some three fingered mittens would be sick. gotta make them waterproof and with a cuff so that your jacket can easily go over them. a string that goes around your wrist would also be awesome so that you can just let them dangle when you have to do something (like what some other people have said)

a gore tex shell mitt type deal that would stop all wind with an equally waterproof and breathable low profile glove inside (with graphics, unlike most liners), because the mitt would keep an insulating layer of warm air around the outside of the glove, and it would stop the wind which can be a killer. then you would also have a pair of shell-mitts plus a decently warm pipe glove.

my perfect gloves would be the mittens with the separate index finger, those are great. get that design, maybe a maroon base with some black accents, that would be pretty baller.
