Level sixties, or?

has anyone worn the level sixties, and are they worth $90 bucks? I get really cold hands, but I hate huge bulky gloves or mitts with a giant cuff, etc. I used level nyc gloves (more like a pipe glove with some insulation) last season, and I've loved everthing about them, but they weren't warm enough (i put my hands in my pockets a lot on cold days).

if not the sixties, can anyone reccommend another level glove, or other? I've tried on Bronco GTs, didn't really like the fit/feel.

Hestra vertical cut freeride, expensive but the best glove on the market in my opinion

i was actually considering it. it is damned pricey though, is it actually really warm, but not bulky?

yeah, 90s a lot, but if they're good gloves you like, its not like you need to replace them every season

they're super sick-comfortable, good looking and warm. I'd say worth it. the leather is tight

theyre bigger than they look. I was worried, but the only problems I've ever had have been on really really wet days. My hands didn't get cold, just wet. But they stayed warm. I love em, so yeah theyre worth it.

i have them.    best glove i have ever worn in my life. so warm, but low-profile. and they look sick. granted i didn't pay anywhere near 90$ for them, i would still pay that for those gloves.

the sixties feel like pipe gloves to me and after just two months of skiing with them almost everyday last year, they're waisted and smelly. maybe thats just my gross hands though.

the hestra glove is most likely the best glove you can get hands down.

but i have a pair of the sixties gloves and they are my most favorite gloves i've ever had.

i've only tried on the hestra and they fit really well.
