Black Diamond Alpine Softshell Gloves - Moonstone, Size S

When alpine conditions turn from calm to biting in minutes, your hands are often the first to suffer. The Black Diamond Alpine Softshell Gloves solve this problem by pairing a stretch-woven Schoeller® softshell with a goat leather palm, giving you the dexterity to handle ropes and ice tools while keeping the wind and light precipitation at bay. A DWR finish sheds moisture, and the fixed fleece lining adds just enough warmth for high-output activities without overheating.

Tips

For best results, pair these gloves with a lightweight liner in colder conditions or wear them alone during high-exertion activities. After use, allow them to air dry away from direct heat to preserve the DWR coating and leather palm. Reapply a DWR treatment periodically to maintain water repellency.
