What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wore these through a full loop on a single digit morning and my hands never went numb on the poles. The touchscreen fingertip let me check my pace without stopping to strip a glove off."Cross country skiing generates its own heat, right up until a long descent or a stop at the trailhead reminds you how cold it actually is, and the CC Thermo Glove is built for that swing. LEKI paired a Thinsulate and microfleece build with a flex cuff that seals against the cold without restricting wrist movement through a full pole plant. The Nash palm material grips a pole shaft securely even as the glove works to keep fingers warm, and the Softspan outer sheds light moisture on wet snow days. A touchscreen fingertip means checking a watch or phone mid loop doesn't mean exposing skin to the air, small details that add up over a long session on the tracks.
