Another great review! I think what people should be paying attention to is what you wear frequently in your reviews…appears you really like that Arc’teryx Proton Hoody haha. And are those Patagonia snow pants?
Thank you! And that is good advice too. I tend to default to my current go-to gear. The Proton has been absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend it. The pants are actually the new Obermeyer Steibis bibs. We have a video up on them. Really impressed with them. I do usually wear Patagonia snow pants though. Good guess!
How the heck can you fit into a large??? I just bought the XL montana ski glove for $65 at cabelas just over a month ago & is the only winter glove that I have tried on in the last 4 years that I was even able to get both on with minimal issue, but is still a pain in the butt. Im 5" 9 & 250lbs & I dont think I have larger hands than you at over 6ft tall. I am over weight but only in the gut, the rest of me is semi fit, buff arms & legs. Im just a heavy drinker. It takes me nearly 3 min to get both gloves on & I have to put them on 10 times a day between each customers service. Its a good glove but I still have had to apply the nikwax twice in the last month & a half & thats on a brand new pair. Im reading the label right now & it says it has non-PFC DWR finish. Keep in mind, I am using these as light work gloves doing pest control & am handling snow & ice covered things like customers wet, swollen, wooden gates that require extra grip & force to open, bait stations on the ground, covered in snow & ice, a metal dewebbing pole & other items in my exposed truck bed full of snow all day. I no longer have to put hand warmers inside 4 layers of cheap gloves & glove liners so... thats a plus.
Dang buddy! Not sure on the sizing difference. Are those the regular or Pro Montana? Might be some sizing differences there. Not really sure, though. I can not get into a medium from TNF. I can get into larges in most of the gloves I am reviewing this winter. Glad you found those gloves at a fair price. Glad you are taking care of them, too, with the Nikwax. I think a lot of people skip over taking care of their gear and it winds up failing on them.
