I had my lobsters out at Loveland yesterday in below zero temps, and kept my digits warm.
My fingers are always frozen and these have been a great glove/mitten for the warmth factor. I see the spring glove in my near future.

MPPG, can you put up a photo with the springs on where the cuff is visible?
See my post a couple pages back for context, I want to compare them to the cuff photos of the race glove that were posted so I can decide what to order.
Ok. I'll try to get that done tonight
It sounds like you've had bathroom mishaps in the past. That's no bueno.Quote:

Stomping it!
I’m loving the Spring Glove. Also, props for FTP’s warranty. Stitched and even retreated my pretty beat RX for free (just s + h) and got them back to me quickly.
I spent Monday bootpacking after the storm on Sunday. The Spring gloves were warm dry in high single digits to low teen temps. They are snug initially but stretch with use. They are much nicer for that type of day than the SX or original shorties which are too warm for me. They would make a really nice work glove I would think, better than the old stand by Kincos. More weatherproof than the 1927s and more breathable than 914/901. They fit better too, more dexterouser.
Better tip, shit before leaving home.Quote:

Great price, just picked some myself. Outlet has some smoking prices on winter gloves it seems, so had to let a couple friends know as they were looking for some.Quote:

I'm really happy with the spring glove and the mtn bike glove has been great as well. The mtn bike glove is a bit thick for certain EC summer swelter fest days.
I like the mountain bike gloves. I wish there was one size larger for my meat hooks and I wish they had a booger wiper on the thumb.

Mountain bike gloves fit similar to the ski gloves and mitts? I've been between an M and L in the ski wear, but need some mtb gloves.
^^^I wear XL in both.
The MTB gloves are great, but they stretch. I would go with the M.
Any chance there’s a maggot discount code for these guys?

Not sure specifically what you are looking for, but I have been very happy with two pairs of factory seconds. I can't even find where the flaws are.Quote:

^^^ Same here. Great deals on what look like perfect specimens. If mine have a flaw, I don’t see it.
The logo on one of mine may be not perfectly aligned. That’s all.
^^^^^I have 3 pairs of factory seconds...I can’t tell...they are all I wear.

Customer Service is great at FTP.....I bet if you sent them an email and asked, they would probably give you a mag deal.
I think when ordering mine over the past couple years....I did get a deal somehow, but I forget how I got it.
Be sure to check to see if seconds are available.
Send freethepowder a PM and ask for a mag discount. He's offered them on here before.
Just a quick perspective. I bought two pairs of FTP Mitts. First pair got stolen, second pair I got seconds a size down. The size down (according to their sizing chart) were considerably MORE toasty then my first pair. Love my gloves and have not used anything else. I highly recommend looking for a place where you can try these on in store and push for a smaller size. Of course, ymmv.
Random bump for solid gloves from a solid company (with which I have no association other than buying gloves sometimes)...
Also, looks like they've got a decent number of extra-screamin' deals in their "outlet" section. Just in time to get ready for the season.
Mags,
Hope everyone had a great summer. Thanks again for all your support. We’re having a Veterans Day Sale with 25% off most non-clearance gloves. For Mags, we’re offering an extra 10% off with the discount code: MAG119

Bump for awesome products from a great company.

Kudos to FTP for the Veterans Day sale!

Just want to say that I think that it is awesome that you are selling liners! My wife always packs out liners before wearing out her mitts and it is tough to find replacement liners from the other companies.
Just saw these. I am super hard on gloves. Any word on how they hold up "read keep your hands dry" on those classic 32 and snowing pnw days?
Gunder, I snow seal them and expect to re-treat at least once during the season and never had them wet through in the few years I’ve had them
I’m just a rec skier tho and you may be harder on your gear then me
Ultimately, they are just leather so not going to be perfect
That’s why I have two pair. Dry gloves after the break.Quote:
