What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I bring the Stowe Aerogel Glove on every winter trip where weight and warmth matter. It's shockingly warm for how compact it is, and the Aerogel insulation really works-my hands stay comfortable even when I'm standing still in freezing wind. Packs down tiny, so it's easy to throw in a pocket or emergency kit." Cold hands can end an adventure early, but the Outdoor Research Stowe Aerogel Glove ensures we stay warm and ready no matter how low the temps drop. Using the same Aerogel technology trusted by NASA for insulation in space suits, this glove offers impressive warmth in a minimalist, ultralight package. Whether we're ice climbing, backcountry skiing, or facing frigid belay stations, the Stowe delivers powerful protection without the bulk. The glove features PrimaLoft(TM) Gold Aerogel insulation, a cutting-edge material that blocks cold even under compression-perfect for gripping ski poles, tools, or ropes. The water-resistant shell adds protection against snow and light moisture, while the low-profile fit and lightweight design make it ideal as either a standalone glove or as an ultra-warm liner under a shell. It's a compact powerhouse built for serious winter missions.
