Neil Gendzwill Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 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. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 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? My thoughts exactly. Arc's stuff is good, but two or three times better than the competition? It's a tough sell ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pow4ever Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 hestra got some expensive one as well. $375 maybe there is reason not to drag hand on snow.

slopestar Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0ardski Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 I'd gladly trade 3 pairs of gloves for a new custom snowboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinbogen Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 I've been perfectly happy with $15 Head gloves from Costco. Bonus is this year they made them with an even longer gaunlet. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinpa Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 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.
