Inspired by the timeless and durable leather work glove, the Patrol Gloves are ready to handle harsh winter conditions anywhere on the mountain, day after day.
The supple goat leather palms and knuckle patches provide the durability to tour out-of-bounds or rally in-bounds, day-in and day-out, season after season. The 100% waterproof BD.dry™ inserts keep your hands dry when temperatures rise and 170g PrimaLoft Gold insulation keeps them toasty when temperatures drop. Imported.
Waterproof. Breathability. Durability. Stretch. Our 2.5L and 3L BD.dry™ waterproof technology is designed to keep you comfortable and moving in tough conditions. We offer a variety of sustainable solutions from bluesign-approved fabrics to DWR solutions without intentionally added PFAS. Finally, we implemented stretch into our solution’s technology, which sets BD.dry™ apart from other waterproof options.

"Had a pair of these for many years! Warm, durable. long lasting. That's why I finally bought a second pair. My first pair is finally showing signs of wear after years of hard use as a ski instructor."
"The cuff is too small to fit over sleeves. The gloves are only warm when it's -10c or warmer out."
"My new Patrol gloves are not up to par with the prior version. They fit a tad smaller, especially the cuffs, and are not quite as warm as my last pair."
"Excellent quality gloves. I believe they will last a long time for my patrol."
"Got a say I'm wearing them on regular days of skiing. . . Would be sad of damaging them on reel ski patrol day, handling toboggans and signs. . . on the mountain. . . But great gloves"
"My patrol gloves were the warmest gloves I’ve ever owned… I am in my 60s! So I got a new pair for Christmas, and they are stiff, and the sizing is different… The first pair I purchased were an instant success, soft, buttery and warm… These are stiff and small. Unfortunately I have to return them. Not sure if BD changed the sizing/vendor for the material. Great product… but this one didn’t work for me."
"Just got back from asking in Japan. Weather was cold, windy and snow was plenty deep. My son broke these gloves in over the course of the week and had nothing but good things to say about them"
"I've used these gloves every season for ski patrol. They are great but generally last for only a season or two with solid abuse."
"I like a thinner glove with good dexterity and these are great while still having warmth without too much bulk"
"Very warm for its thickness, also very lightweight. Held up fine during an 8hr hike in winter weather."
