Get the upper hand on tricky slalom gates in these padded urethane racing gloves.

Whether you're a serious contender or a weekend gate crasher Marker's Race Glove with hard urethane foam padding is ideal for summer ski racing camps and weekend city league events. The Race Glove features a rugged black pigskin leather shell coated with polyurethane for waterproof protection. Along the back of the fingers and hand is plenty of articulated hard foam to help protect your digits from frozen super G and slalom gates. Inside you'll find a naturally soft cotton bemberg lining. It's important to remember that the Marker Race Glove is strictly dedicated to ski racing. The leather shell is waterproof but not breathable like some alpine gloves. The cotton lining is soft but not wicking. This is a performance ski glove made for racers who hit the gates for competition or a few hours of practice before heading back to the gym for training. If you're looking for a ski glove that you can wear all weekend at the ski resort check out some of the other Marker offerings--but if you're headed up to race this glove is the one to wear all the way to the finish line.
