GEAR PICK OF THE WEEK
Outdoor Research Waterproof Liner Gloves We’re stoked on the Outdoor Research Waterproof Liners because they have a great balance of weather protection and dexterity. It’s rare to find gloves that are both low-profile and fully waterproof, so when we discovered these babies, we knew we had to have them. They deliver the perfect amount of warmth and protection for active days in the rain or snow. The OR Waterproof Liners are our top liner glove pick on our list of the Best Winter Gloves. We think you'll really appreciate their awesome protection, value, and versatility.
