Hestra Heli Review

The tried and true Hestra Heli has a big following and will stand up to years of abuse. A slightly wider fitting, very focused, ski and snowboard glove that is the second warmest we tested, being just edged out in warmth by the Black Diamond Guide. While not quite as warm, the Heli was a little bit more dexterous. It sports a removable and easily dryable fleece liner that is held tightly in place by a beefy strip of Velcro. The liner never pulled out with our fingers, even when our hands were wet. After over thirty days of use, we found it to be one of the more durable products we tested. While structurally the pair we tested did great, the navy blue dye on the fabric did bleed onto the white leather, but this wasn’t that big of a deal, and it didn’t affect its functionality. If you use these gloves in warmer climates, you will have to re-treat the palm more often than most gloves; however, with colder, drier snow, this is less of a big deal.
