The G Hot Dry is a high-performance, medium-weight glove for skiing and mountaineering. Thermolite insulation keeps hands warm and dry without compromising comfort or dexterity. The Hipora waterproof/breathable membrane (a sophisticated 3-layer microporous coating that is ideally suited to the demands of gloves) offers extra protection in wet conditions. The cowhide leather reinforcements between the thumb and forefinger along with the GripR patches have been increased to cover more surface area thereby increasing the grip and durability of the glove.
