Cross between a mitt and a glove, with a separate index finger, designed for really cold conditions, or for those who really feel the cold, or both, where dexterity is required but removing mitts is not ideal - eg rope handling, placing ice screws, and gear sorting in well below freezing.
Designed for technical alpine winter climbing with a split-finger design for dexterity in extremely cold weather, the Black Diamond Soloist glove combines a BD.dry™ waterproof insert with an Empel DWR on the shell and a long gauntlet cuff for complete weather protection. The shell can be used alone on warmer days, while the insulated liner, filled with PrimaLoft Gold Cross Core, dries quickly, and insulates even when wet. The reinforced goat leather palm stands up to rocky terrain, repeated rope handling and the wear and tear associated with dedicated mountain use.
