Product Description

The Black Diamond Spark Ski Gloves are built for skiers who demand reliable performance in cold, demanding conditions. Designed to handle deep resort laps, backcountry tours and everything in between, they combine a full goatskin leather shell with a 100% waterproof and breathable BD.dry insert, delivering excellent protection from snow, wind and moisture.

Inside, a super-soft fleece lining paired with PrimaLoft Gold insulation provides deep winter warmth while maintaining flexibility and comfort. The glove construction offers more dexterity than a mitt, making it easier to manage poles, buckles and zips without sacrificing insulation. Added EVA foam padding across the back of the hand and knuckles gives extra impact protection when navigating trees, icy terrain or rough conditions.

The neoprene Freeride cuff is designed to sit neatly under your jacket sleeve, sealing out snow and locking the glove securely in place with a hook-and-loop closure. Tough, warm and dependable, the Spark Gloves are a trusted choice for skiers who want long-lasting performance without going overboard on bulk or price.
