Montane says
Made for mountain pursuits where protection from the elements is required, the Tornado glove is an essential piece of kit for use in the high mountains. It is lightweight and extremely versatile offering waterproof protection from the GORE-TEX® inner layer and warmth from 60g PrimaLoft® GOLD Insulation. The stretch softshell and goat leather outer make this a very dextrous, comfortable multipurpose glove.
Our Verdict
Now these are a comfortable pair of gloves. They provide a good amount of warmth for such a low weight and the microfleece lining feels incredibly soft against your skin. Montane have combined Gore-Tex and PrimaLoft Gold Insulation to give you a waterproof, breathable and highly insulated glove. What more do you need?
We love the featured nose-wipe, not enough gloves have them if you ask me. Exactly what you want on a chilly windy day. The touch screen compatible fingers will come in useful too when you want to use your phone or touch screen GPS without removing your gloves.
