Why We Built The Backcountry GORE-TEX All-Mountain Mitten
Cinch down the Backcountry GORE-TEX All-Mountain Mitten and break trail on powdery mornings, knowing that blustery snow has no chance of interfering with your warmth. We made the All-Mountain Mitten with GORE-TEX waterproofing for dependable protection from winter's weather. A grippy goatskin leather palm secures your hold on ski poles, and the gauntlet style covers your wrists from the elements.

Overall I like the design of the gauntlet mitt. Articulated hand/ finger design, good leather on palm, goretex. However the inner side of the mitt from mid palm to end of fingers has really thin leather that I can’t see making it past a season. The insulation is really minimal too for a mitt. Grabbed my poles from shed and could feel cold on fingers within 20 seconds. The cuff length glove or mitten would probably be decent for spring skiing, but at lower price point. For everyday glove, spend the extra $20-40 for Hestra or Black Diamond

Great style/function, durability suspect
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
These mittens look, feel, and fit great. The gauntlet style is easy to pull on and off, and the wrist strap and drawcord allow for a customized fit. I used these in conjunction with a pair of Burton Touchscreen liners and my hands stayed dry and warm all day on the mountain. The leashes are comfortable and unobtrusive so you never have to worry about losing them when taking them off. My biggest complaint and cause for concern is the goatskin for the fingertip portion of the mitten is very thin. In my first time using them on some groomers with mild ice, the leather is already torn/ripped. For the price point, I expected better durability out of these.

- I've put it through the wringer
Purchased these on S&C at a pretty decent discount and I’m still disappointed. The leather is much thinner than previous mittens I’ve used at a similar (full) price point. I’m betting they won’t hold up to a season of my resort riding (30-40 days at Wolf Creek), already signs of breakdown over the palm/fingers after 3 sessions. The insulation is really thin too. My first day out with them was a blue bird, just below freezing and while my hands weren’t cold, they also weren’t warm. Last weekend with active wind and snow and temps in the 10-15F range my thumbs went numb in 2 hours, which has never happened with previous (similarly priced) mitts, even on colder days. Last negative is the (plastic) membrane in the glove that I’m assuming is the Gore Tex, it makes it sound like you are wearing plastic bags under the mitt. The good? My brown and black variety looks sweet, and they have the right wrist and cuff straps to keep powder out as well as a wrist leash. I’ll call this a swing and a miss by Backcountry unless you are using on warm, sunny days.
