Default How many pairs of gloves do you own?

I only have one pair of Burton Gore-tex whatever gloves. I used to have a pair of Grenade something-somethings that I really liked but I lost after the first day. They were thinner than the Gore-tex ones but a lot more comfortable.

Do you guys have a thinner pair you use on warm days, or just one pair for everything?

One pair. There are mittens made by REI. I had a pair of Burton's but they were not warm at all.

I have several pairs of gloves. A really warm pair, a warm pair, and spring gloves. Some of them I have a few of each. I generally go through 1-2 pairs of gloves a season. Hiking, skinning, draggin' your hand, and latching out to trees to hang tight turns wears out gloves surprisingly fast. Overall I am not very impressed with Dakine. Their gloves fall apart faster than any I have used. I have a pair of Rome leather gloves for spring riding, and they have held up for over two seasons now. I don't use them as frequently as other pairs as it has to be warm out. They have done a lot of approaches for me though. I suspect they will go down this coming season. I've had good luck with REI gloves, Pow gloves, and recently bought a pair of Hestra Gortex gloves. Hestra had a warehouse sale this spring so I got them for cheap. I know in the ski world they have a great rep, so I am looking forward to abusing them. I also have a pair of Loki mitts that I have just used a few times. I rarely get cold enough as to where I think mittens are better, and I just hate the clunky feel of them.

i have a pair of burton gore-tex gloves that i bought off of wm.com at the end of the season. havent even used them yet.

i bought them to replace a pair of ride gloves that ive had for like 6 years. theyre completely beaten up; holes, rips, tears, and completely not waterproof anymore. but damn they still look so hot, id buy another pair if i could find it

i have just one pair.... by drop.

they came with gore-tex liners and when things get warm, you just take the liners out.

i have one other pair of gloves tho, that i farking love and would wear at home (until they started stinking). if only i could snowboard with them too......
