Hestra Leather Heli Ski Mitt

Hestra first made the Heli Ski for ski guides in western Canada, people who spend long days in the snow and cannot duck inside to warm up. This is the mitt version, for those who want more warmth than a glove gives. The liner pulls out, so you can swap it when it gets damp or change it as the temperature and your effort change. A long collar with a snowlock and a Velcro wrist strap holds the heat in. An eyelet on the mitt takes a carabiner, so you can clip it to your ski pants or a climbing harness while you work in thin liners.

Features

• Goat leather palm and fingers for grip and feel
• Waterproof three-layer polyamide fabric on the back of the hand
• Removable liner that you can swap out when damp or to suit the temperature
• G-Loft insulation, a thin polyester fibre that Hestra says insulates even when wet
• Bemberg polyester fleece lining with a soft brushed surface
• Long collar with a snowlock to keep snow and cold out
• Wrist strap with Velcro closure that seals the cuff and stops you dropping the mitt when you take it off
• Eyelet for clipping the mitt to ski pants or a climbing harness with a carabiner
