BALLISTIC JOINT STITCHING

It’s no secret that all snowboard gloves and mitts, no matter who’s making them, have a weak spot. We’re talking about that little area between the thumb and index finger that snowboarders are skilled at blowing out.

DOWN FILL INSULATION

To measure its fill power, one ounce of down is placed in a cylinder, compressed, and allowed to fully loft. The cubic inches of the lofted down represent its fill power. What you really need to know is that the higher the number, the higher the insulating properties and the warmer you will feel.
