Burton AK Gloves - Snowboarding Forum

Looking for some feedback on Burton AK gloves. I'm not a fan of the bulky over the sleeve style gloves, i currently use the dakine navigator glove, and i like the leather, lower profile look of these gloves.

Been looking at the Burton AK Clutch glove as well as the Yeti. Is the yeti glove worth the extra money or will the clutch give me enough warmth and dexterity?

I have a pair of AK Guide gloves from last season. They fit nicely and have held up well. My only complaints are that they aren't the warmest and I've had trouble fitting a liner under them even though I sized up to an XL.

Thanks. I normally don't have a problem with warmth, just don't want to invest in a pair of gloves that will bust at the seems or soak up water like a sponge.
