Outdoor Research Arete Gloves

Ideal for multiday, active adventures, Outdoor Research Arete Gloves™ maintain your dexterity while providing cold-weather warmth. Nylon shells feature four-way stretch fabric across the back of the hand for unfettered movement. AlpenGrip® palms and seam-guarded thumbs make the gloves ideal for high-friction sports such as rappelling. Waterproof, breathable, windproof Gore-Tex® insert provides an excellent defense against heat-robbing moisture and windchill. Pre-curved shape with three-panel thumb ensures a low-bulk, ergonomic fit; soft nose wipe on the back of the thumbs. DuoCinch™ gauntlet closure with elasticized wrist keeps the glove in place and seals out debris. Removable "idiot" cords keep your gloves attached to your sleeve when the gloves are removed. Average weight per pair: 7.4 oz., size large, with liner.
