Hestra Army Leather Heli Ski Glove Jr. 25/26

The Hestra Army Leather Heli Ski Jr. is the junior version of a glove originally created for Canadian ski guides who needed reliable warmth for long, cold days. The palm and fingers are hardwearing goatskin, while the backhand is a weather-resistant, breathable 3-layer polyamide. Inside, a removable fleece liner with G-Loft synthetic insulation provides warmth, and a Snowlock cuff with drawstring adjustment plus a hook-and-loop wrist closure seals out snow.

The trade-off with a leather glove is a bit of upkeep. The goatskin is what makes it so durable, and it rewards regular care to keep it supple and protective season after season.

This glove is built for kids who ski all over the mountain, from groomers to powder days, and need a tough, practical glove that keeps up with a full season.

The pre-curved design adds comfort and grip, and Hestra handcuff wrist straps are included so the gloves stay attached on the lift. An eyelet and hanging loop make them easy to clip together, and the removable liner can be swapped for other liners.

We think this is one of the best kids' ski gloves out there, a true guide-tested classic sized for young skiers.
