Marmot Crestline Mitt

£60.00

Made an extremely waterproof and extremely breathable fabric, so you shouldn’t get as sweaty in these as lower-priced products and they should stay waterproof for longer in theory. The palm is leather like the Outdoor Designs’, but you also get a soft nose wipe on the thumb, which you don’t get on the Outdoor Designs. A profiled finger area and ...

The North Face Patrol Glove (2012)

£90.00

The North Face Patrol Glove on first appearances looks like many other gloves in this test. But slip it on and it has a noticeably closer fit than the others, even though it is packed with Primaloft insulation and boasts a Gore-Tex waterproof lining. The closer fit helps with the dexterity, but as with most gloves that are well-insulated the ...

New last year, the Petzl Charlet Summit is rapidly becoming a classic. It builds on the tradition well-established with the Charlet Goulet ice axe so favoured by guides.
