Reliable heated protection with premium materials.
Hestra says:
A sturdy, waterproof ski glove with extra long heated panels on the fingertips for comfortable warmth on cold winter days. Hardwearing materials and timeless design make it perfect for skiers and others who get cold fingers. A CZone membrane protects against wetness, and goatskin provides durability and good grip.
Our Verdict
The Hestra Heater Gauntlet Gloves provide dependable warmth and weather protection in freezing, wet or changeable mountain conditions. Combining goatskin leather palms with a waterproof CZone membrane and G-Loft insulation, they balance toughness with insulation and comfort. The active heating system delivers consistent warmth to the fingertips and thumb, and the upgraded 4,000 mAh batteries extend runtime.
At 366 g (Medium) plus 164 g for the batteries, they feel substantial but not overly heavy once on. The cuff length and drawcord closure offer secure overlap with jacket sleeves, and the adjustable wrist ensures a close fit. Heat output is moderate rather than intense, keeping hands comfortable without overheating or creating excess moisture. The gloves can also be used without the batteries in milder conditions, functioning effectively as a warm, waterproof pair on their own. Build quality is excellent, and the leather and soft-shell combination stands up well to repeated use. For anyone prone to cold hands or spending long days in alpine or high-latitude environments, these gloves deliver a practical and refined balance of warmth, durability and control.
