i have some seth morrison 3 fingers. worth every cent. even bought a back up pair. the feel of all leather hestras is the best. and they are actually pretty warm.

I am continually pleased with my Hestras (Seth Mo Pros), the performance and overall product quality is superior to any other company I've come across. I personally would look at Hestra as a brand in general very seriously in the future.

Arc'teryx Alpha SV gloves if you're looking for the real ultimate.

Otherwise it's hard to go wrong with Hestra's incremental sizing.

Absolutely love my heli gloves. Super warm and durable. I like that you can swap the liner too for different conditions. Great glove

The only con I have with my heli and seriously the only one, is that the skirt is way too long. It goes way too far up my arm and with multiple layers it can be a bit of a pain sometimes. Really not a huge deal but I kinda wish they made it a bit shorter. It's for mountaineering so I can see why they did it. Amazing gloves tho, also love the wrist straps I use them a lot
