Why We Like The Black Diamond Guide Finger Glove
Crafted with a durable yet supple leather exterior and a waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX membrane, the Black Diamond Guide Finger Glove delivers warmth and superior protection in the most challenging conditions. The innovative design combines a full-finger glove with a mitten, creating a split-finger construction to enhance dexterity without sacrificing warmth, to make handling gear and adjusting equipment easier without removing the gloves. These gloves feature Polartec fleece for heat retention and moisture management, a removable liner with Primaloft Gold insulation for added warmth and personalization, and foam padding on the knuckles for added impact protection.

The gloves are praised for providing a good balance of warmth and dexterity, with many describing them as the warmest they've owned. The high-quality construction, including waterproof inserts, durable leather, and reinforced stitching, is noted. While most users found the gloves kept their hands toasty even in very cold temperatures, some with poor circulation or sensitivity to cold felt they didn't provide enough warmth. There were also a few reports of quality control issues, such as sizing discrepancies between the two hands.

black diamond stuff is the best!
I have used BD guide gloves for over 10 years now, and not only are they the best quality available, they really stand behind their products.

Love my Black diamond mitts
These are replacements for 10 year old previous version, new ones seems beefier and I only expect the best from BD Eqpmnt as they have never let me down in the past

Perfect
The gloves are great and come with waterproofing for the leather; my hands aren’t a huge fan of the fleece on the inside but that’s personal

What I've needed In NH
Former frostbite victim here. Been looking for very high quality/warm/durable gloves. These are it. Luxurious outside and inside, and more/most importantly, warm. It's march and it just snowed again. And I don't mind it.

Real Deal
I've used high end gloves form other brands, and they are typically disappointing. These gloves however are fantastic, warm, tough, waterproof. They're exactly what you're looking for.

Warmest gloves I’ve ever worn
I was invited to write this review for a chance to win a cool hundo. But I have absolutely no problem saying these gloves are the warmest I’ve ever put on. Like hot boxes! Pretty sure they are appropriate for the coldest weather New England has to offer. If youre going subzero, arctic, whose to say? But you’ll be fine skiing the east. I’ve heard that black diamond quality has taken a nose dive, but these gloves seem solidly constructed with double or triple stitching along leather seams. They are still too new to tell how they will hold up to abuse. Hoping for the best.

Toasty and tough
Nicely insulated. Gauntlet keeps your whole hand warm and protected. Everything I was hoping it would be.

Warm and Comfy
Nearly all the versatility of a 5 finger glove but with the added warmth of a mitten. If you live in a cold place, these are great gloves!
