Why We Like The Hestra Army Leather Heli Mitten
Hestra knows our backcountry missions are as much about the journey up as the powder hunt on the way down. Whether we're hoofing it solo up the skintrack or catching a ride with a guide, Hestra's Army Leather Heli Mitten was designed for each moment on the mountain. The tough, weather-resistant Triton fabric blocks the breeze and repels moisture from each angle, and the added strength of the Army goat leather ensures seasons of wear. A removable liner adds warmth on icy morning rides, or we can ditch the outer shell for our sweaty climb up the hill.

I love these gloves
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I've heard a lot of high praise of Hestras and finally decided to spend the money on a nice pair. So far they have stood up to the expectations. I get super cold and these mittens are very good at warming my hands up. Even if I leave them in my cold car I can put them on and they will quickly warm up my hands. The removable liner is super convenient for washing and the outer shell is very durable and the waterproof capabilities on these are insanely good - my hands have been nowhere near getting wet. I use these when driving (although they are definitely a little bulky for that) and skiing. If you are not planning on using these gloves in the snow then I wouldn't recommend them just because the wrists are designed to be super large to keep out snow so it would look super bulky if you were wearing these gloves without a bigger jacket. They also come with wrist attachments which are super convenient so that you can take them off while on the ski lift and not worry about them falling to the ground. For sizing I measured my hands and ordered to the recommended size and they were true to fit (size 8).

Great Mitt

Haven't worn them skiing yet but the Mitts are top notch quality. You get what you pay for! I have extremely sensitive hands due to a hand accident, lost the tip of my finger in snow blower accident and these seem to keep hand warm in extreme conditions. Not sure what they are like in rain or snow and cold but so far so good.
