We went all-out when developing the 509 Backcountry Gloves to be better fitting, more durable, and more comfortable than the competition. Built for long days and aggressive riding, these gloves combine rugged stretch softshell fabric and a top grain goat leather palm with a waterproof/breathable membrane and strategically placed 3M™ Thinsulate™ insulation. The extra-long gauntlet cuff and speed cinch creates a snow-proof seal around your wrists.
If you have never stopped to appreciate the complexity and importance of your hands and fingers, that’s okay because we have. The Capto Undercuff is designed to maximize the utility of your hands, while keeping them warm, dry and safe. One continuous piece of high-quality leather is applied directly to the palm of the Capto Undercuff to provide a reactive fit and feel. The top of the hand is shielded by 40 grams of Thinsulate™ insulation and the same 45,000mm Sympatex® membrane found in all our 2.0 Series outerwear, making the Capto Undercuff completely waterproof and windproof. Sealed at the wrist with a neoprene cuff and velcro closure, they’ll fit under the cuff of any jacket. If you need to remove your gloves for any reason, they'll hang by your side, and out of the snow, thanks to the removable elastic wrist harness. The devil is in the details.
