About this deal
That durability comes from the supple goat leather palm as well as the waterproof membrane. Both materials are strong enough to not let in moisture but also give you a lot of ventilation. It’s hard to find a warm glove that can do both. No water comes in through the Power Heater as well. These will last for at least a few seasons. Plenty of Movement As solid as the Hestra Heated Gloves are, you may want something more traditional or more affordable. If either of those are the case, take look at these models: The Heated Gloves’ durability is another strong point. They actively repel moisture and ensure water never gets into your hands. That then combines with the flexible shell to give you something that, in my opinion, provides the best of both worlds. It’s nice to get extra protection and not lose any dexterity in the process. What I Dislike
Do not apply Hestra Leather Balm to dress gloves. Only use it on Sport gloves made of goat leather or cowhide. External seams provide improved comfort for the fingers by keeping seams outside of the glove rather than folding them in, where you can feel them inside against the fingers.
Performance Comparison
Turn the glove on to the highest setting and leave it to heat up for 10 minutes or so, then try it on to see if it heats.
Hestra athletes have strong social media presence and/or place well in events and have values that align with Hestra’s. As much as we'd love to sponsor every up and coming athlete, it is not always feasible. We have very little turnover on our team from year to year, and we do not anticipate bringing on any new team members for now. If you tend to get cold hands, please see our How to Stay Warm Guide to help keep hands warm the Swedish way.No. Hestra Leather Balm is a leather conditioner, but it is not a dedicated leather waterproofing agent. Our leather balm will help with water resistance, but will not make your gloves fully waterproof.
