Good deal ^
I have these and they work well for a lighter glove, got them for around $20 during one of their seemingly always 60% off sales. I like the elastic longer cuff.

The Hestra work gloves are good down to about 20F.
I’m a medium sized guy in an XL glove. And they don’t have an XXL.Quote:

They are properly sized. I'm really disappointed in FTP. I sent 2pr back in early January (both with the same problem), and their site stated up to 8 weeks to get back to me. They didn't even bother to reply, and I'm out the shipping too (1/2 the price of a pair of the gloves).
Just real bad taste in my mouth now. Not even the courtesy of a reply. I was keeping my mouth shut until I saw how they handled this situation, but they chose not to.
I used to recommend them to everyone, and my friends knew to give me a pair if they owed me a favor, etc. No more.

Don't get me wrong, I love to see great service and I'm typically pretty hard on companies that don't provide it, but I gotta figure non-leather bike gloves are not a lifetime investment.
I’ve gotten great communication from FTP whenever I reach out to them.

Any codes still working? My sister wants to grab some for my niece.
Also check the outlet section to save a few bucks on factory seconds.Quote:

$41 duty is bullshite
That sux. The 2 pair/2 orders i bought came without duty and tax. If the purchase is under $100 and its made in the us it should have no duty or tax. Its been hit and miss for me with cross border purchases lately. The dollar amount seems kind of random too. Good gloves though. After 3 years of touring with them i need to replace my spring gloves. The pole grips wear them at the thumb when im climbingQuote:

Was it full duty + tax? Or brokerage in there as well?Quote:

Love mine. Going on third season and they desperately need some conditioning.
I bought these last spring, and they have maybe 40 days.
They already have holes in the finger tips. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3ee3f946d4.jpg

Anybody have recurring problems with the draw-cord holds? Had one replaced once by FTP, but the plastic is cracking on the other one.
I've decided to just get a pack of these and get rid of the (apparently) shitty ones:

I'll have extras - so let me know if you want any. :D
So you obviously don’t take care of leather for shit. Treat that stuff and won’t dry rot, which is what happened here. Not a FTP problem, it’s a user problem. [emoji6] [emoji4]Quote:

I agree, look how dry that leather looks. Using leather conditioner just twice a season, I’m sure the insulation will pack out long before the leather wears out for most people. That’s been the case for me with my FTP Freeride gloves, I’m switching to RX next season to see if the insulation lasts longer on that one since it’s got the removable liner.

I am pretty sure what happens IS if the product you are trying to buy is made by some mfger in Canada then it is a competing product and so its subject to all kinds of fuckery
back in the day I bought T-1's from Telemark Pyrennes and they were cheaper/ faster than from MEC in Canada cuz there was no duty cuz there were no ski boot mfgers in the land of plaid and maple syrup
So my buddy trys the same thing with some T-2's and he gets nailed for duty , alors the help at TP put "ski shoes" on the manifest instead of plastic ski boots, so merde
whats really merde is i can't edit the post above this one
Skis are exempt from duty (but not taxes). If you ever buy ski shit down south, just remind the border guard that "ski equipment is exempt from duty" and they will let you through. Even they can't keep track of what's what in the duty rules. Hell, even when you do go inside to pay it takes the person 5 minutes of typing to figure out what you owe.
It's a stupid system - should be a de-facto $2000 exemption for personal vehicles straight up. I'd vote for anyone who would change this. And let me bring back more booze, too. If I can't get it here in Canada, why am I treated like a criminal for wanting to bring it over?
they got rules and regs built up over years and years ever since the bootlegging for all kinds of reasons which probably don't make sense anymore but they are all written somewhere and open for argument if you really want to but why would you bother putting your self at the mercy of a canadian border guard when you know its going to suck and that it will cost you cuz your canuck buck is worth and I would use that term loosely only 72 cents
you really worry about the price of cars and booze ? you must have voted for Rob Ford and his buck-a-beer
And don't put them away wet at the bottom of a plastic bag.Quote:

Planning to pick up some mittens. What would the collective do if you're right in between sizes based on their size chart - go up or down?
Also FWIW, I have a pair of OG gloves and the leather is still in great shape.

I'm right at a L and sized up to XL for some mittens I planned to wear with thick liners. Has worked out fine when I occasionally wear them without on moderate days.
pair of mediums in the outlet, Order quickQuote:

My original XL were perfect.
The latest batch are tight. I would size up.
