Depends how cold it is where you live, and weither you want style or function. Now if you live in a place that is really really cold, don't get these gloves, or any glove like drop, and others, they don't keep your hands cozy. But if it is nice where you live then go for it.

^i dont know about that comment. I live in Ottawa, and ski at tremblant and its pretty much the coldest place ever. I have some of the thicker grenades, like the one Tanner has in happy dayz, and they are opkay for the REAL cold. But they are ripped to shit. out of ten id give em a 7.

yeah if it's just a normal day grenade's are fine, and they look pretty dope, but i made the double mistake of taking them to silverton in a blizzard AND forgetting my backup pair of gloves at home. in those conditions they were completely soaked before it was even lunchtime

I have the "Team" model, and although they look sweet, they cannot be used in cold, and get soaking very fast. They're only to be used for spring skiing

that's cause they're pipe gloves smart guy...


the mitts are pretty warm, i've used them a few times, they come with a pair of pipe gloves in them if your hands are very sensitive to the cold, but mine sweat a lot, and the inner lining dried whenever my hands would sweat, they're sick mittens

Man i have been to trembalnt, it has nothing on where i ski, look up kapuskasing, timmins, - 40 with 50 kph winds are an average day. Well Marmot, Arctyrx, and like many people said swany. Or Auclair, i really suport them, canadian made.

i always get grenade park gloves for the spring, and i use the Burton Leathers for the winter. The burton's are like pipe gloves, but they keep me warm over here in seattle for the winter, so i suppose you could try those. As far as function, no park specific glove is going to be very waterproof, even the leather nikwax gloves...so they are gonna get cold.

If you want pipe gloves go to home depot and buy some of those work gloves for $15 that look exactly like pipe gloves/moto cross gloves.
They're heavier duty stitched and padded in the hands too, so they'll last way longer.

great on warm days, keep ur hands nice and cool

my opinion: get them for christmas or something, or if u can find a sick deal on them. otherwise, dont pay 50 bucks for them
