AWESOME gloves
I own the Alti Mitts which I consider the gold standard for warmth. Unfortunately, I can't grip my poles very well. So I've been looking for the perfect pair of ski gloves and think I found them in the OR Remotes. My requirements in a glove is one that has the Duocinch option and a long powder skirt which I couldn't find in any other brand. These gloves are very soft and have just the right amount of loft to keep my fingers warm. They started getting cold after sundown after about 6 hours of skiing and the temps dropped to 20 degrees. Now I can comfortably and securely grip the poles.
