Outdoor Research Ouray Ice Gloves Women's Small Black/tomato

Description

Both this and its unisex counterpart, the BitterBlaze Glove, use the waterproof trustworthiness of GORE-TEX, the resilience of Pittards Oiltac goat leather, and the revolutionary warmth of PrimaLoft Aerogel insulation used in NASA space travel. Detailed down to the very last seam, the Ouray Ice Gloves also include a carabiner loop for easy storage, pull-on loop for no-fuss application, an elasticized wrist for further range of motion, and hook and loop wrist closures to trap in heat and fasten. Go on, get out there, and kick some ice with the Ouray Ice Gloves on hand. The Ouray changes all of that with precurve and fit designed and patterned to fit actual female athletes hands and to match the motion of climbers at work. Female ice climbers demand a lot from their gear: The ability to trap warmth, retain tactility, and provide durability against the harsh ice, rock, and sharp tools that aid their objective, but can get in the way if not handled properly. Aerogels compression-resistant thermal barrier is patterned over the palm and fingers of each glove, with multiple panels that allow retention of grip and freedom of movement. Each customized Aerogel insert reduces heat loss from freezing cold elements, like ice, rock, tools, and rope, allowing you total focus on the task at hand. So OR developed a new way to take the stress out of handling those elements; the Womens Ouray Ice Gloves.
