Outdoor Research Alti Gloves

Well made sirious gloves
January 09, 2013

I bought those gloves for my husband. The gloves seem very tough and very warm. Could be too warm for hiking up, but you can separate outer and inner so no problem. Outer is a bit too stiff but hope it will get softer after using them for a while. They have loops on the each middle fingers. You can hook them upside down when you take them off to do something in snow, so snow doesn't get in which will be very important for serious backcountry tour. My husband love them and I'm thinking to get the same ones for myself too.

Great Pair of Gloves, but watch the sizing

The alti gloves are a fantastic pair of gloves. I was out in the dead of winter in Colorado and these gloves performed flawlessly. They are durable, abrasion resistant, and shed water very well, all the while providing a good amount of dexterity. I purchased a pair of the Alti Mitts also in Large and had just the right amount of "wiggle" room, but the Alti Gloves XL are still a little snug. I might be able to fit a very thin liner in there, but probably won't need to for most of the temperatures in the lower 48. Purchase with confidence, these gloves are great, just like most other OR products. They are a tad expensive for gloves, but they are worth every penny in the comfot they afford you. Cheers!
