Swany X-Cell Glove:
Get a grip on cold alpine weather with these rugged and exceptionally warm X-Cell Gloves from Swany. The X-Cell design features Swany's Tri-plex insulation made from three different synthetic Primaloft weights, a Comformax Radiant Shield for heat reflection, and a soft and wicking Dynatherm lining for wicking moisture away from your skin. The Primaloft insulation is thickest on back of the hand, thinner along the palm and has a special stretch design along the glove sidewalls and those forchettes (that's the spaces along the sides of your fingers). We like the waterproof zipper on the heat pocket on the back of the hand, although you might find it easier to insert the chemical heater pouch while your gloves are off your hands (don't laugh--we've seen this attempted on the slopes). The X-Cell has DuraGrip reinforcements along the palm for extra durability, especially if you're riding up T-bars on the back glacier. This sleek and warm glove is an excellent choice for skiing, ski touring and snowmobile riding. If you're looking for similar features in a glove but don't want the leather look, check out Swany's X-Change II gloves.
