Gloves and mitts are not an afterthought — cold hands ruin days on the mountain, and getting the right pair means staying out longer and riding better. We carry a deep range of snowboard gloves and mitts from Howl, Dakine, Rad Gloves, Burton, Rojo and more, from budget-friendly basics to serious waterproof performance handwear. Authorised Australian dealer, full range in stock, with free shipping Australia-wide on orders over $90.
Frequently Asked Questions
Usually one of two things. The glove is too tight, which restricts circulation and makes your hands colder rather than warmer, or the glove never properly dried from the day before and you are starting damp.
A treated outer sheds the first hour of snow and then wets out. An insert in the liner, such as Gore-Tex, keeps water out all day. This is where cheap gloves fall down, and it matters more here because Australian snow is wet.
A long gauntlet cuff goes over your jacket sleeve and seals out snow on deep days. A short cuff tucks under the sleeve and is less bulky, which suits resort riding. Neither is better, it depends on the conditions you ride.
Away from direct heat, and pull the liner out if it is removable. Drying them on a radiator or heater cooks the waterproof membrane and shortens the glove's life considerably.
If you are riding consecutive days, yes. A second pair is worth more than one more expensive pair, because most gloves that fail have not leaked, they have soaked from the inside and never dried out.
A middle ground between gloves and mitts. Fingers are paired rather than separated, which keeps warmth up without giving away all your dexterity.
