The Aretes are some of the most versatile alpine gloves available. They offer grip, dexterity, and waterproof protection. The synthetic palms will not absorb water. The fleece liners are removable, giving you the freedom to customize your insulation to match conditions.
Happy Customer
I was looking for gloves that were water proof and would be durable yet provide warmth even without the liners. These gloves met what I was looking for and the liner quality, wrist straps, and pull ties all exceeded my expectations.
great alpine gloves
This is my second pair - I use size Small (without liners) for lighter conditions and Medium (with liners) for colder ones.
They are superb winter/alpine climbing gloves - warm, very precise on climbing gear, never got wet in them!
Real Workhorse
Very well made. Holds up well under tough conditions when abrasion's a concern. Totally windproof and waterproof. Warm enough when active alone and when things slow down wear the liner. Should last for years.

Great product
These gloves were very warm compared to other similar products I have tried. The removeble liners were great. They kept my hands toasty down to about 20 degrees.
Great winter gloves.
Great mobility and great fabric. Sheds snow very well and repels water to keep moisture out. Also, if you take the liners out, it dries very quickly.
Only complaint would be when my hands get sweaty, it is difficult sometimes to get the gloves on because my fingers do not align well into the gloves. I had to take the liners out, put them on separately, and then put the gloves on over the liners.
Good quality glove
OR's quality is well demonstrated by the Arete glove. These gloves dry quickly after a day of use, are warm, and appear to be very durable. I have no qualms predicting that these gloves will last a very long time and will keep my hands warm while doing so.
Buying a glove with a removable liner is key for me, as my hands sweat profusely. I bought a pair of patagonia capilene fleece gloves that I can switch out midday. By the next morning the OR liners are dry. Never have wet hands again!
nice glove
Seems that they will hold up extremely well. the material seems very durable. Had them on rainier last week in 20 degree temps and my hand were pretty cold. Still good for the price though.
