Skiing: Columbia Blackjack II Gloves
As a hardcore winter sports enthusiast, I enjoy dry hands and warm fingers when out skiing and snowboarding. That’s especially true when it’s 9 degrees out, snowing, and I’m having a bad day trying to take on the rough terrain on the upper mountain. In other words, I am eating a lot of powder! When I finally took off my old pair of gloves and went shopping for new ones, I ended up getting the Columbia Blackjack II gloves. They are extremely warm, fairly water resistant, and comfortable. Although technically ski gloves, they work well when doubling as a snowboarding gloves, too. I have used them sledding, skiing, snow shoveling, and snowboarding for the last five years with excellent results and superior resilience. If you need a good pair of gloves and want something for under $100, these are a pair you will definitely want to consider.
