Reliable warmth, good dexterity and a clean fit for mixed winter conditions. A practical cold-weather glove aimed at consistent movement rather than static warmth.
Outdoor Research says:
The Adrenaline Glove is built for cold-weather pursuits—whether you're breaking trail in fresh powder, ripping at the resort, or climbing in frosty winter conditions.
With a Ventia™ waterproof membrane and breathable recycled fabrics, these mitts keep your hands dry and comfortable, even during high-output days. EnduraLoft™ Eco insulation provides lightweight warmth without the bulk, while windproof construction shuts down those icy gusts. AX Diamond Grip palms ensure durability and a solid hold on poles, giving you full control. Thoughtful details like touchscreen compatibility, elastic cuffs, and a cinchable gauntlet enhance functionality, while a removable leash and glove clip make transitions between activities a breeze. Made with bluesign®-approved materials, this glove is built with sustainability in mind.
For winter athletes who need the warmth, protection, and performance that mountain terrain demands, the Adrenaline Mitt is ready to take on whatever the elements throw your way.
Our Verdict
The Outdoor Research Adrenaline Gloves balance protection and usability through a Ventia waterproof insert and EnduraLoft synthetic insulation. At 127g (Medium), they feel well-structured without being bulky, providing enough dexterity to handle zips, buckles, and poles without removing them. The fit is close around the hand with a gauntlet that seals securely over sleeves, aided by an effective cinch and pull loop for easy adjustment.
Warmth is well matched to active use in moderate cold, while the breathable lining helps prevent clamminess during exertion. The recycled shell fabric is robust, and the grippy palm provides dependable traction on tools and poles, though it feels lighter than heavy-duty leather alternatives. Stitching and seam finish are tidy, with no weak points visible after repeated use.
