Outdoor Research Ouray Ice Gloves Women's Small Black/tomato

Description

Designed specifically for women, by the female-led technical glove team at Outdoor Research, the Ouray Ice Gloves are an homage to the adventurous ladies who have been leading pitches and hardcharging through ice and mixed climbing. Both this and its unisex counterpart, the BitterBlaze Glove, use the waterproof trustworthiness of GORE-TEX, the resilience of Pittards Oiltac goat leather, and the revolutionary warmth of PrimaLoft Aerogel insulation used in NASA space. The Ouray changes all of that with precurve and fit designed and patterned to fit actual female athletes hands and to match the motion of climbers at work. Aerogels compression-resistant thermal barrier is patterned over the palm and fingers of each glove, with multiple panels that allow retention of grip and freedom of movement. Each customized Aerogel insert reduces heat loss from freezing cold elements, like ice, rock, tools, and rope, allowing you total focus on the task at hand. Because womens hands run an average of three degrees colder than mens, the Ouray features an extra 200g of Aerogel insulation on the back of hand. So OR developed a new way to take the stress out of handling those elements; the Womens Ouray Ice Gloves. Both this and its unisex counterpart, the BitterBlaze Glove, use the waterproof trustworthiness of GORE-TEX, the resilience of Pittards Oiltac goat leather, and the revolutionary warmth of PrimaLoft Aerogel insulation used in NASA space travel.
