{"product_id":"hestra-leather-box-mitt","title":"Hestra Leather Box Mitt","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hestra Leather Box Mitt is a plain all-goatskin ski mitten built for cold, not for wet. Hestra rates its warmth \u003cstrong\u003eInsulated, 6 of 8\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the same spec sheet lists \u003cstrong\u003eWaterproof: No\u003c\/strong\u003e. Hestra's wording: \"The glove does not include a waterproof membrane. It may offer water resistance from its outer material but is not designed to keep hands dry in sustained wet conditions.\" That line decides whether this is your mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGoatskin, foam, and a liner that pulls out\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shell is \u003cstrong\u003eimpregnated goat leather\u003c\/strong\u003e, which Hestra's material spec calls \"water-resistant goat leather.\" Behind it sit \u003cstrong\u003efoam insulation\u003c\/strong\u003e and a removable \u003cstrong\u003epolyester pile\u003c\/strong\u003e liner. Durability is rated \u003cstrong\u003eDurable, 5 of 8\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe official feature list runs two lines: elastic at wrist, removable lining. No gauntlet, no snow lock, no wrist strap. The liner pulls out to dry overnight and gets replaced when it packs down. Hestra builds it in its own factory in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWarmth and weather\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix of eight is high on Hestra's scale, a level it defines as \"deep, enveloping warmth for harsh winter conditions.\" Four fingers share one chamber and heat each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater is where it stops. There is no membrane in this mitt, neither CZone nor GORE-TEX. Impregnated leather gives water resistance from the outer material, which covers cold, dry snow. That is not waterproofing. In sustained wet — spring slush, rain-on-snow, warm maritime storms — Hestra says outright that the mitt is not designed to keep your hands dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFit and sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHestra sizes by hand circumference, measured around the widest part of the palm: \u003cstrong\u003esize 7 = 178 mm (7.0 in)\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003esize 8 = 203 mm (8.0 in)\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003esize 9 = 229 mm (9.0 in)\u003c\/strong\u003e. Hestra's own caveat: \"The recommended size is an indication. Hands vary, and some models have a tighter fit than others.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePTO stocks \u003cstrong\u003esizes 7, 8 and 9, the same three sizes in both colourways\u003c\/strong\u003e, Off White and Black. Leave a little air at the fingertips. Insulation squashed flat stops insulating, so a tight mitt runs cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it is for, and who should skip it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy it if your winter is cold and mostly dry, if you want leather for the grip and the service life, and if you will trade dexterity for heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkip it if you ski wet. If your season is slush, rain lines and maritime storms, buy a membrane instead: Hestra's \u003cstrong\u003eCZone Mountain Mitt\u003c\/strong\u003e has one, and this mitt does not. Skip it too if you need to work buckles, zips or a phone, because Hestra rates mobility \u003cstrong\u003eModerate, 3 of 8\u003c\/strong\u003e. That is what a mitten costs you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hestra","offers":[{"title":"Off Wht \/ 6","offer_id":51449747308839,"sku":"35371-020-06","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Off Wht \/ 7","offer_id":51449747341607,"sku":"35371-020-07","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Off Wht \/ 8","offer_id":51449747374375,"sku":"35371-020-08","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Off Wht \/ 9","offer_id":51449747407143,"sku":"35371-020-09","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Off Wht \/ 10","offer_id":51449747439911,"sku":"35371-020-10","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Off Wht \/ 11","offer_id":51449747472679,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ 6","offer_id":51449747505447,"sku":"35371-100-06","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 7","offer_id":51449747538215,"sku":"35371-100-07","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 8","offer_id":51449747570983,"sku":"35371-100-08","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 9","offer_id":51449747603751,"sku":"35371-100-09","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 10","offer_id":51449747636519,"sku":"35371-100-10","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 11","offer_id":51449747669287,"sku":"35371-100-11","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7177\/0663\/files\/1776025141966-35371-020_1_Meta.jpg?v=1780402789","url":"https:\/\/933534.myshopify.com\/products\/hestra-leather-box-mitt","provider":"PTO SKI \u0026 Snowboard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
