Oyuki Haika ($150)

This Japanese import has two features we always look for in a touring glove: a removable liner, and external seams on the fingers for maximum dexterity. The Haika鈥檚 liner is made from highly breathable Lycra and has durable goatskin leather in the palm. A 聽suppler goatskin makes up the glove鈥檚 shell, with comfy tricot inside.

The North Face Etip Grip ($55)

This light single-layer glove is perfect for cool-weather cycling, nordic skiing, or simply having in your pack when the weather turns foul. It鈥檚 knit from stretchy fleece, and the palms and fingertips are coated in a tacky elastic that dutifully grips cold, slick surfaces like a phone or water bottle.

Hestra Army Leather Patrol Three-Finger ($130)

Many skiers shy away from mittens, despite their superior warmth, because they lack the versatility of gloves. The Patrol鈥檚 free index finger addresses this issue. Hestra put polyester on the back, because it鈥檚 more breathable than the goat leather in the palm and fingertips, where dexterity is key.

Leki Xplore XT S ($130)

Combined with the Leki trigger pole, the Xplore XT S is the warmest glove we tried. The reason: rather than a circulation-restricting strap that you wrap around your wrist, Leki鈥檚 pole clips to a Dyneema loop between the glove鈥檚 thumb and index finger. PrimaLoft Gold insulation doesn鈥檛 hurt either.

Astis Long-Cuff ($195)

Riding chairlifts on a powder day calls for a stylish mitten that sets you apart from the crowd. This suede gauntlet comes in dozens of combinations of beadwork and fur trim, but there鈥檚 tech under all that bling. High-loft Polartec lends toasty warmth, and the 颅leather is injected with hydrophobic silicone, which adds waterproofing.

Outdoor Research Bitterblaze ($135)

The Bitterblaze is lined with aerogel, the 眉berwarm, porous silica insulation used by NASA in its space suits. That 1.5-颅millimeter layer of gel also deserves credit for 颅making this glove, which was created for ice climbing, remarkably warm while maintaining dex颅terity. Plus, it won鈥檛 break down or thin out over time.
