Montane Womens Krypton Lite Gloves

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

UOG TOP PICK – Small, lightweight and packable, we have singled these out as one of our top picks. These work really well in the mountains for winter hiking but, are also just as useful on the commute thanks to their low-profile design, and high warmth to weight ratio. Softshell gloves that offer decent weatherproofing and wind resistance.

Montane says

The Women’s Krypton Lite Glove is constructed using unique GRANITE HighLoft, a breathable, stretchy and wind resistant softshell fabric with a high loft brushed interior which traps heat and effectively manages moisture, keeping you comfortable during faster paced activity in cool, changeable conditions. A DWR helps shed light rain. Ideal for mountain walking, fastpacking and scrambling.

Our Verdict

Montane’s Womens Krypton Lite Gloves, provide a good level of warm and wind resistance for a glove this thin and dexterous. The soft fleece lining makes them really comfortable while the harder outer face fabric, made with Granite highloft, works well to keep the wind out, and you warm.

Good on the trail but good for everyday use. The super grippy design on the palm is a great feature that makes them so much more practical and usable than traditional fleece gloves. The touchscreen-compatible tips on the thumb and index finger are great for using your phone in cold conditions too.
