Black Diamond Spark Mitts vs Burton Gore-Tex Mittens - Women's

Not at all waterproof. Warm, comfortable, NOT waterproof. Take incredibly long time to dry, even on a forced air, heated boot dryer. If you use these, you will need a pair of spare mitts to use while this pair dries

The outer portion of these gloves is great. They fit a bit bigger than expected, but the warmth on them is great, as well as the water proofing. I’m very pleased with the leash on the gloves.

The outer leather provides wind protection, durability and is waterproof (like all leather products, leather treat the glove to maintain the functionality of the leather).

Bought them for skiing and in less than one season they started ripping. I had used them for about 6 days skiing and the gloves already developed rips along the seams where the two materials were stitched together. Now after about 15 days in the snow they've both developed large holes on both gloves in multiple areas. Poor construction quality because I didn't use them for anything rough

They were not too tight as to get cold and they were not too sloppy as to feel limited in mobility/ dexterity. On a cold day at the resort (15degrees F), my hands did get surprisingly cold for having mittens. But now i know the lower limit of the mitts and know not to wear them in cold weather. For fair weather, they are the perfect mitt though

Nice mittens but they run VERY small. The liners are especially tight fitting and the mittens are short. I got the size Medium and they barely fit my 12 year old daughter.
