Hydra Pro OutDry Glove $140

Low-prof ile, dextrous but warm and waterproof gloves provide a design challenge that the Hydra Pro OutDry appears to have solved. A snug f it and pre-cur ved f ingers make this glove tactile when manipulating gear and tying ropes, or eating lunch. The construction bonds the waterproof membrane directly to the outer fabric for a gapfree f it, ensuring a no-slip grip on ice tools. The leather palm is reinforced for durabilit y, and stretch nylon on the back doesn’t restrict movement, while the synthetic insulation keeps these gloves warm without adding bulk. The low-prof ile cuff f its over or under jacket sleeves, and f inger loops keep snow out when the gloves are hanging off your harness. Warm, waterproof and dextrous: what else do you need in a glove?
