Frequently Asked Questions | Snow & Ski Gloves

Are ski gloves waterproof?

Most snow gloves are waterproof or water resistant, but the level of protection varies. For the best protection in wet snow, look for a waterproof, breathable membrane such as GORE-TEX. Check each product description for details.

Should I choose gloves or mittens for skiing and snowboarding?

Mittens are generally warmer, while gloves give you more dexterity. Trigger mitts sit in between. The same gloves and mitts work for both skiing and snowboarding. Browse men’s, women’s and kids’ snow gloves and mittens.

What should I look for in a pair of ski gloves?

Look for waterproof and windproof protection, insulation for the conditions you ski in, a comfortable fit, and a cuff that goes over or under your jacket sleeve so snow can’t get in.

How should ski gloves fit?

Snug but not tight, with about a finger pinch of space past your fingertips so warm air can move around. Check our glove size chart to find your size.

Do you have ski gloves for women and kids?

Yes. Shop women’s snow gloves and mittens and kids’ snow gloves and mittens, including options for toddlers and babies.

Are leather ski gloves a good choice?

Leather gloves are durable and grippy, and a waterproof lining keeps the water out. Always follow the care label and let wet gloves air dry away from direct heat.

Can I use my phone with gloves on?

Yes. Many of our gloves have touch screen compatible fingertips, so you can use your phone, take photos or check lift times without taking your gloves off. Look for “touch screen” in the product description.
