hey i was wondering what are some quality glove companies/gloves?  i ski a lot of park but also a lot of all mountain and stuff and the temperature regularly gets pretty low (sometimes below zero) so what are some good gloves?

Hestra makes the best gloves out there hands down (no pun intended) but they are super pricey. Dakines are OK and sometimes you can get them dirt cheap.

POC gloves are dope.

I have some grenade waldos, and for a park glove they are reallllly warm. Plus they handle lap after lap on the rope tow.

I like Da Kine because they're great about warrantying their gloves. I've gone through three pairs of viper pipe gloves in the past three years, and have gotten new gloves no problm each time which is pretty sweet because i like getting new stuff. I really like their shorter gloves too. I got a pair of broncos earlier this year and loved them but they didn't hold up as well as i would have hoped, luckily i got them warranteed and was able to upgrade to their cobras which i have yet to test out.

Hestra Seth Morrison Pro gloves, best gloves you can buy.  Well probably not the greatest for park cause they are leather and can get cut easier possibly?  I dunno I use mine in park and they are legit.  super fuckin warm, but very expensive.

The Level Superstar mitts are really good, I've had mine for like 5 years now, and they are still in one piece :)

Also, I know alot of people hate on grenade because of bad quality, but my Manifesto mits have been solid. And they look dope!
Ther CC team models are also pretty dope in autumn/summer temperatures :) nice fit, nice grip

I'm a big fan of DaKine gloves, I just got a pair of... Vipers? and they are soooo dope, a little thin but on a really cold day I just bust out my old pair, can't remember the name, but they're leather and really really warm. a little big though

I figure I should bold this so you can tell that you're supposed to be listening to me. If you want the best, highest quality mass-produced gloves available, buy Marmot. The randonee and the slightly more expensive Ultimate glove are bar none the best gloves widely available. If you're willing to drop the cash on them you will NOT be disappointed.
