Featuring GORE-TEX Plus Warm technology, the 696 Linear GORE-TEX gloves help keep us warm and dry through the winter.. GORE-TEX lining is highly waterproof and breathable for weather protection and synthetic insulation with a density of 340 g provides significant warmth in both wet and in dry conditions. We also like the additional touchscreen knobs and fingers , so we can handle our devices in the cold without taking off your gloves. All in all it's exactly that weather resistance, warmth and portability that we love in our ski and snowboard gloves.
