Why We Like The Black Diamond Guide Glove
The Guide Glove is the warmest ski glove in Black Diamond's winter lineup, and its tough construction makes it perfect for the most rugged winter adventures. The GORE-TEX membrane offers incredible protection from wet snow and howling winds, while the Primaloft Gold insulation combines with boiled wool to trap heat close to our skin. The removable liner boosts versatility for long days in the backcountry while allowing our hands to move freely as we patrol ridgelines in search of the perfect line.

Good gloves
I can’t remember how long ago I bought my first pair (maybe from the old CAMPMOR catalog?). They lasted longer than any pair of gloves I’ve ever had, and were the perfect glove for surviving harsh winters. The new pair I just bought appear to be the same quality but are just a little tight compared to the others. A little loose is almost always better than a little tight. The different insert linings might be the reason they are snug. I save the old linings just in case.

Guide Gloves (XXL)
Purchased these for my upcoming expedition to Everest and can't wait to put these gloves to the ultimate test. I have worn these gloves on three distinct Winter 14ers in Colorado and they performed incredibly well, providing both warmth and the dexterity required to manipulate my safety equipment up and down the mountain.

Finger Sizes
I would like to give a 5 star review but I only have had them for over a week. One thing I've noticed is that the thumb is slightly oversized. I tried to find info regarding if the glives had received some kind of oil treatment but couldn't find anything.

Guide Gloves
Great gloves, the blended wool keeps your hands warm. They are designed as an over the cuff glove, so putting the cuff over the glove can take extra effort.

Very Nice!
Love these gloves! Quality build, warm and comfortable. As someone with a large amount of abduction with my thumb, I often find that I quickly wear gloves out between the index finger and thumb. These seem to accommodate the majority of my thumb's range of motion and are reinforced where I typically end up tearing gloves. I am hopeful that these will last me a decade or more.

warm, rugged and still offer good dexterity
I got these gloves a few days ago, just in time for a ski trip to Breckenridge (Colorado USA). I am happy to share that my fingers survived the cold snap that we had here. temperatures as low as -2 Fahrenheit (with wind chill) and my fingers were quite comfortable. it comes with a packet of wax which is great for making the gloves more resistant to water and more importantly, the wind. I recommend sizing up, as the sizing guide seems to run small and you'd want to leave an extra air-gap inside the glove fingers.
