Ski Gloves

In the past two years ive been going through ski gloves like nothing. Looking for a nice pair of gloves that are durable. Any advice? thanks

Overton's Gladiator ProSkins. Great price and they hold up really well. I switched to Masterlines and they are junk. Will be going back to the Overtons soon. A guy I ski with just picked up two pairs on my advise and loves them so far.

I can usually get a season or two out of the overtons gladiator pro champ. While I prefer the old overtons pro skins, these do the trick. They aren't exactly as durable as I wish they were, but they're less expensive than the others so it evens out. I'm intrigued by the Goode gloves, too.

To me, this forum is about love of inboard boats. It is about the sharing of information and, on a good day, some humor. It is not about post count, brand of boat, or any other superfluous labels that lend themselves to a false sense of superiority. Please, respect one another, try to pass on accurate information, and keep your eye on the ball.

HO/Syndicate RPM gloves, if you can find them. I use them everyday and the same pair has lasted almost 2 full seasons now.

I've actually had pretty good luck with the Masterlines. They don't last forever, but I don't go through them too fast. 1-2 pair per season if I'm skiing quite a bit.

The best grip I've had was Straightline's Super Silicone.. if only I could afford a new pair every week. They don't hold up very well.

I too use the RPM gloves. Love them. used to wear the Kevlar Straightlines. and my handle took a Bad beating... the grip is almost completely gone now. so I need to get a new handle because of the kevlar. Gloves are still good as new and that is 2 seasons so far. first season on the RPM's and they are still perfect.
