Dakine
The articulated Performance Fit in Dakine gloves are achieved using a two-step design process. The shape of the palm pattern is developed with a hand situated in a relaxed position. The forchettes (sidewalls of the fingers) are also patterned in this manner to meet the true natural articulation of the fingers. The end result is a glove shaped with the perfect blend of an open and closed hand. It is the optimal fit for non-restrictive blood flow to the fingers, resulting in both a dexterous fit and warm hands.
Girls Specific Fit Gloves
Girls will be the first to tell you their fingers are not the same as Guys. For that reason Dakine Girls gloves are designed with a specific Girls Performance Fit that is based around a Girls hand. These designs incorporate a shorter and narrower palm to insure excellent dexterity. The fingers have been constructed with less volume for thinner fingers. It is the optimal fit for non-restrictive blood flow to the fingers, resulting in both a dexterous fit and warm hands.
