FUCK THAT
dakine suck.

grenade gloves are WAY fuckin better.

personally i can rock a pipe glove that has a fleece liner in all but the coldest conditions.
my old defcon gloves were amazing.

dakines quality is top notch, but you have to look around to get good styles.   grenade, on the other hand, has better styles overall but their gloves have durability issues (in my experience)

I have Dakine for snowy days. a couple pairs of level pipe gloves, and am getting the Grenade Mitt. The mitts are incredibly warm and dope, they'll be my every day glove.

I have Dakine mittens that would turn into gold before they would let my hands get cold, and my Defcon pipe gloves get the job done on warmer days.

I have the Dakine Nova mitten and it's super warm. I say go with Dakine for functionality and with Grenade for fashion.

Dakines are much better quality, and warmer. Grenades look real cool, but id rather have my hands not cold, then looking good.

exactly, gloves are gloves, who cares about minisculedifferences in style compared to warmth and durability
