What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I’ve worn the Empress GTX Glove on everything from storm days to bluebird tours, and they’ve been solid in every scenario. The GORE-TEX +Active insert breathes incredibly well on climbs, and the goatskin leather breaks in beautifully. Warm, durable, and surprisingly dexterous for a full-insulation glove."Cold ridgelines, storm-churned bowls, and long chairlift laps call for a glove that can move easily between deep-winter warmth and high-output activity. The Empress GTX Glove +Active brings that balance with Grade A goatskin leather, a breathable GORE-TEX +Active insert, and a plush micro-fleece lining that stays comfortable from first lap to last. Thinsulate™ insulation adds reliable heat on icy mornings, while the pre-curved fit keeps grip natural on poles, board edges, and boot buckles. Durable leather resists wear from rope tows, gear handling, and fast-paced transitions, and the Teflon® DWR sheds moisture long before saturation becomes a problem. A suede thumb panel handles goggle wipes in swirling snow, while the included wrist leash keeps the gloves secure during quick adjustments. Built for storm chasers and steady all-day riders, the Empress holds its warmth and performance across a full range of winter conditions.
