Mountain Hardwear Women's Momentum Running Glove

Great fitting running gloves
November 12, 2011

Got these gloves on Altrec after trying on a bunch of gloves at my local running shop. None of them even come close to the fit of Momentum. The fabric is a bit stretchy which allows for a close fit. Other gloves have either super bulky seams or bulky fabric around the wrists. These Momentum gloves look sleek, and make me feel faaaaast on the trails. So far I've taken them out to as low as 35 degrees and not exactly sunny weather, and they are warm enough. I love the fabric on the back of the hands, it's wind resistant and smooth on the outside, yet soft on the inside. I noticed the "trap door" only after reading other reviews, but I haven't used it. Instead, if I press my entire finger tip on the iPhone touch screen and swipe, I can answer calls without problem. Highly recommended, just don't touch these with the rough side of velcro.

Great for running

These are great gloves for running in temperatures above 35 degrees. Dexterity is very good, and you will be able to use an IPhone without having to remove them. The gloves are soft with areas to wipe your nose during a run. These gloves clip together to attach them to a pack or hydration belt - and keeps them together in the wash. The palms could have used a little reinforcement for durability - my gloves are beginning to show a little wear. I would have liked to have seen a "tacky" surface on the palms, especially useful when handling supplements, hydration bottles/tube and phones. The size is standard.

nice light weight glove

Nice glove - the pattern on the back I think is very cool looking. They fit snug and the seams seem stitched together very well. The finger flap for using electronics is pretty neat - its actually the main reason I bought these. There is a slight slice on the side of the index fingers that has cover. Very unobtrusive to the gloves. It allows you to slip your finger out the side and use it on touch screens! These gloves also feature a fleece snott area on the index fingers. It adds to the technical look of the glove. The mountain hardware "shading" squares are reflective and look pretty snazzy. I was unsure about the color when I purchased, but now that I see them in real life, I like it. The color is a nice neutral seal brownish grey and the majority of yellow stiching doesn't show on the outside of the hand. I primarily intend to use these as driving/running gloves.
