Who are they designed for?

For mountaineers, skiers and mountain professionals working in extreme cold: icy conditions, deep snow and high-altitude winds.

How warm are they?

Warm down to -20 °C: 133 g/m² PRIMALOFT® Gold synthetic insulation covers the whole hand and retains warmth even in damp conditions.

How waterproof is it?

Our ULTRASHELL® technology: a waterproof membrane rated at 20'000 mm Schmerber, with breathability of 80'000 g/m²/24h, keeps hands dry in extreme cold.

What sets them apart?

A two-part glove: the inner lining detaches and dries separately, so your gloves are dry and warm the next day, even on a multi-day expedition.

Protection that holds up in extreme cold

In winter, your hands take the brunt of the elements. Intense cold, biting wind and persistent snow: without the right protection, heat escapes quickly and movements become less precise.

These gloves are built for demanding winter conditions. Their insulation provides lasting protection from the cold, while their waterproof, windproof construction keeps the elements at bay. Flexible and reliable, they retain the dexterity you need to handle equipment and work effectively in the field.

In the mountains, keeping your hands warm is about more than comfort. It lets you keep moving when conditions get tougher.

In summary This content is written by AI

Customers love their warmth, comfort and quality construction. Many find them very warm, even in very cold conditions, while still supple and comfortable. The leather is considered high quality, with well-placed reinforcements on the wear areas for added durability. One customer with Raynaud’s syndrome considers them essential. Sizing nevertheless needs checking: the guide may suggest a size that is too small, and some customers needed to go one to three sizes up; try them on if possible, although others found the fit perfect.

These gloves are beautifully crafted, the result of meticulous attention to detail. The leather is of excellent quality, and the panels are perfectly placed. They are very warm, which is essential for me as someone who suffers from Raynaud's syndrome. In short, these are thick gloves for very cold weather, and of top quality!

Being sensitive to the cold, I appreciated the natural warmth of these gloves. For sizing, I chose a size L, as with other Cimalp gloves. The size guide recommended a size M, but it was slightly too small.

Excellent quality, haven't tested it in extreme cold yet. It's very versatile, I use it without the insulation. I think the brand should advertise this more.

Good-quality gloves, fairly supple. I think they’ll soften up fully by the second season of use. Very warm. However, since my hands are a bit oddly shaped, I had to try them on in store.
