Pow Tormenta Glove and Mitt Review

$79
The Tormenta is a nice combination of the Assault Glove and the Pow Sniper. It's warmer than the ES and has an under the sleeve model unlike the Assault. This is equiped for almost any type of situation and one of POW's better cold weather gloves. Rubber palms arent as comfortable as leather but it sure is dry and easy to maintain. For 2012 the Tormenta stepped it up and added Gore-Tex to give it better waterproofing than before. We also like the goggle wipe and nose wipe on the gloves. The Tormenta is a great cold mountain one glove solution at a very reasonable price for a Gore-Tex glove.

The Good Ride Take

he Good Ride Take on POW Gloves
We feel that POW is really on top of their game right now and makes some of the best gloves in the industry at a very fair price. POW is still small and well managed and that we feel is one of the reasons they are doing so well. From what we can tell there are 3 things that make their gloves better than the rest.
1. Their very smooth lining that allows your hands to get in and out of no matter how wet.
2. Their exceptional waterproofing. Their high end gloves have an insert called Hipora that is comparable to Gore-Tex and offers 20K waterproofing/breathability.
3. They make gloves that fit well and last a long time.
If you are looking for gloves then go over the POW line and find what works for you. You won’t be disappointed and will save money.
