I will probs find what I am looking for at tractor supply or something but interested if people have suggestions.

I wore out my buckskin mitts. I would buy wells Lamont but they all have glove liners. Would buy asyure but they are vegan, I’m looking for buckskin or possibly goatskin if available.

as I said I will probably find what I’m looking for at a non skiing store but it would be cool to support a ski brand

Either would be chill because my old liners are still good. Just saw that kinco sells just the shells

Dope. I’m pretty sure flylows have liners without finger slots so might be worth checking out

There are some leather hestra mitts that the liner is just Velcro in. Might work for your needs. I have a pair and they are nice

Hestra Omni mitt doesn't have a liner but obviously pricey. I can attest to the flylow mitts being great, but I'd go for the unicorn mitt over the oven mitt.

Kinco's are crap, and only work decent if you apply mounds of snoseal to them (which you shouldn't have to do that right off the bat with a ski glove)

My mom knit me some wool mitts and the liners in my kincos wore out so I just cut the liner out and sewed the finger tips in. I'm also looking for some leather only mitts tho cause the pig skin kincos absorb water like a sponge despite the copious amounts of sno-seal I've applied.

I put mink oil on my mitts for waterproofing works good for me, never tried sno seal

Mink oil makes them more flexible and soft as well as waterproofing, sno seal seems a lot stiffer to me
