$275, You must not put your hands on the snow :lol:

300 CDN. I have no idea how one justifies gloves that pricey. Are they really three times warmer/more comfy than gloves at the more typical price point of $100 or less?

[AMK]

for that money they better have ultra light heating system and AC so your hands don't sweat and self cleaning/ self drying system too. :)

My thoughts exactly. Arc's stuff is good, but two or three times better than the competition? It's a tough sell ...

hestra got some expensive one as well.
$375 :eek: maybe there is reason not to drag hand on snow.
BTW it does have heater.

I go to lost and found to find my "other" glove. Pick a good one/preferably black. Each time I go, I look for the opposite hand. pretty soon i have several good right and left hands. Dip them just past the wrist and into the cuff in tool handle/rubberized coating adn BAM! several matching pairs of gloves for the cost of one $ 35.00 gallon of black tool coating. Just sayin...They last forever and who cares if the cuffs don't quite match The are tucked under my jacket cuff anyway...:biggthump

I'd gladly trade 3 pairs of gloves for a new custom snowboard.:smashfrea

I've been perfectly happy with $15 Head gloves from Costco. Bonus is this year they made them with an even longer gaunlet. :)

Yep! I have those gloves too! Although I never drag my hand, I do spend too much time on the rope tow! (I'm an Instructor) I've tried those rope tow protector thingies, but they are too big and I can't function at all with them on so I never end up using them.
