Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Ski Gloves: Phoenix or Tog 24.
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

I've settled on a possible choice of 2 ski gloves: Tog 24 Marvels or Phoenix Spectres. Living on an island has the distinct disadvantage of paying to get to a ski shop so I'm wondering if anyone that owns these gloves can answer some rather trivial questions. Do they have a snot rag, goggle wipe and rienforced thumb/forefinger (very important)? Thanks

I bought a pair of tog 24 gloves recently but can't remember what they're called. They're not bad (goretex and leather) but not as nice as my Hestras. About the same price (both discounted to £50) but still good gloves. The ones I have don't have anything fancy like that - just very waterproof, grippy gloves.

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks. Out of interest, where did you get the Hestra's?

I have Phoenix gloves but I don't know which model. They're about 4 years old, look like new, reinforced thumb, finger and palm. Warm hands in -30C in Les Arcs in January. Very pleased with them. But no snot rag / wiper facility on mine.

Sharkymark,

Most resorts with good ski shops should do them but in the UK EB and SNR stock them as well.

In resorts other more common names are Reuch and Invicta and the later were the best gloves I have owned.
I don't think gloves are too be skimped on as a bad pair can ruin the holiday at least. I rotate daily between Hestas and Eider gauntlets and these are amongst the best I have come across in recent years IMO

Sharkymark, Val d'Isere - can't remember which shop, but it was in an end-of-season bargain bucket! Fit perfectly and only bought the Togs to carry around as a spare pair in case the leather Hestras get sodden.
