Mountain Equipment says:
For the very hardest ice and mixed leads; a glove that perfectly balances dexterity, warmth and protection.
Developed in conjunction with our team of Alpine and winter climbers, this is a glove designed to provide maximum grip and dexterity. A Pittards® Armortan® Goatskin palm provides a sure grip on leashless tools and screws whilst a pile and microfleece lining and reflective internal scrim maximise insulation.
Our Verdict
The Hard Mixed Gloves from Mountain Equipment are tough and rugged gloves designed for use in extreme conditions. They provide maximum warmth and dexterity, making them ideal for use with tools on the mountainside.
The gloves have an excellent fit, with pre-curved darted fingers that aid with precision and prevent hand fatigue. They can be cinched around the wrist with a plastic hook and loop fastening, which works well in frozen conditions.
The palms of the gloves are reinforced with renowned Pittards Goatskin leather, which adds texture and helps with grip. Internally, a plush microfleece lining aided by a heat-reflective fabric adds warmth while keeping bulk and weight to a minimum.
