MOUNTAINEERING<br />
Our Mountaineering collection consists of highly<br />
functional gloves that live up to climbers’ tough demands<br />
for unrestricted feeling and durability, year round. Several<br />
of the warmer models have detachable wool liners that can<br />
be washed and replaced. This means that these gloves can<br />
be adapted to varying weather conditions and uses.<br />

3Tips from<br />

1. Agile fingers<br />

2. The right materials<br />
It’s good to strike a balance<br />

and warm materials. A glove<br />
must deal with both fine motor<br />

with ice axes, carabiners and<br />
other equipment.<br />
