Gordini MTN Crew Artist Mitt Men's 25/26

The Gordini MTN Crew Artist Mitt is a men's down mitten built for skiing, snowboarding and long winter days on the mountain. The shell is durable CLUTCH synthetic leather, and inside sits an Aquabloc insert that is waterproof, windproof and breathable. Warmth comes from 600-fill DownTek insulation, with a high-pile fleece lining on the back of the hand and a moisture-wicking lining at the palm. A neoprene undercuff with hook-and-loop closure and a leash finish it off.

The honest trade-off is the mitten format itself. Keeping your fingers together is what makes a mitt this warm, but it also means less dexterity for buckles, zippers and phone screens than a five-finger glove.

It is built for skiers and riders who run cold and want a warm, tough mitt for resort days, storm laps and chairlift rides in real winter weather.

This is a men's mitt offered in Medium, Large and X-Large. The neoprene undercuff tucks under your jacket sleeve and cinches down with hook-and-loop for a secure fit at the wrist.

We think the MTN Crew Artist Mitt is a great pick for cold Vermont days. Warm down, a durable shell and a little style make it an easy favorite on the hill.
