hey ns, i need new park gloves and i would like some suggestions on which park gloves are really good quality gloves, i have never had a pair of park gloves that have lasted me more than one season, i have recently used celtek gloves and the lasted about 3/4 of a season, and now im on to grenade cc935's and they are falling apart after like 5 days of skiing. I was thinking about just getting some carhartt work gloves

yes i have used the searchbar but i couldnt find anything that answered my question

+karma for any help

I've had one of the thicker Burton Ronin gloves and it's still going strong with no cuts or rips about 2 seasons in.

What is the point of a park glove? What is different than normal gloves?

these ones are really expensive but im sure there gonna be best money (alot of it haha) can buy. Looks like a high quality product by hestra again, so if you have the cash i guess these would be dope.

Agreed, me and a few buddies have these, our hill has a rope tow and we have used it 1.5 seasons with no wear showing. One thing I can suggest if you get leather is don't dry over a vent. Just hang dry because its better for the leather.

Kincos are definitely the best bang for your buck. 15 dollars or less and they last forever. if your not trying to rock work gloves on the mtn id recomend anything leather, its super durable and warm

I've got pipe gloves of 686 and I have no complaints. They are now already lasting 1,5 season and only thing about them is that the white parts aren't as white any more as they used to be xD Still as waterproof and warm as they were when I bought them.

I rock Auclair cross country ski gloves in pretty much all conditions except super cold and then I bust out the Auclair cross country ski mittens.  They are both super low profile, have leather fingers and palms and keep my digits warm on cold days, but not too hot on warm days.  At $25-$40 (depending if you can find them on clearance or at an outlet like Winners) I pretty much won't look at anything else.  Mine have lasted roughly 1.5-2 years a pair.

iv had kincos for two seasons now, and they still in mint condition, i use them on rope tows without glove protectors and they have no problems, so would def recommend them if your looking for value for money. i also have some 4frnt i rok gloves which are deer skin leather and are real comfy, but can get a little wet

i love my candygrind gloves. they are leather, but come with nikwax. spread it all over the gloves, leave it over night and in the morning they are fairly waterproofed. im never cold in mine.

Dakine doesn't really last that long in my opinion, at least the older Vipers that I had. They got wrecked after a season or so. POW makes awesome gloves, good quality and durability. Kincos would be awesome on a budget if you don't mind work gloves while riding, I know some people are picky to that stuff.
