Burton Gloves - The Perfect Rider"s Glove

The brand Burton was created over 30 years ago by Jake Burton, a carpenter from Vermont. In his barn he built the first Burton snowboard, and the rest is history. Today, Burton is the most well recognised snowboard brand in the world and lies between more feet and snow than any other brand on the planet. The quality and design of Burton products is what makes it stand out from the rest, and it is not strange then that Burton gloves are at the top of their category.

Having proper snowboard gloves is something that many beginners do not prioritize. They are very focused on having an amazing board, jacket and pants, but in the glove department, there are usually cut-back. Not until you have been riding for a while, and particularly in very cold and wet weather, will you appreciate how important good gloves are. For most experienced riders, gloves are one of the top priorities and they understand that if they ride around with cold and wet hands, riding is just not the same.

The Burton glove collection can be divided down into four major collections. The AK, Premium, Hi 5 ans Seasons Pass. The AK and Premium collections are the dearest and also provide you with the highest quality materials. All gloves are made out of waterproof GoreTex that breathes and also have amazing insulation capabilities with a triple goose down insulation called PrimaLoft. The AK collection so far only come in men's sizes, however the Premium collection comes in both men's and women's sizes. The Premium collection also have a super fast drying inner lining which is guaranteed to keep you dry on any day. Another amazing feature of the Premium collection is that the glove has an in-built iPhone or iPod remote. What this means for you as a rider is that you only have to tap your glove to change songs.

The Hi 5 collection provides you with specialised gloves for those needing to operate technical equipment while on the mountain. There are gloves specially made for photographers taking proofs of the action with insulated zip openings making it easy for the glove to come off and back on.

In the Seasons Pass collection you will find Burton gloves at an affordable price. Most gloves come in GoreTex and also have a DryRide Thermex lining which dries very rapidly. In this collection you will find both gloves and mittens.

Whatever glove you need for you next trip to the mountain, Burton will have you covered. The combination in innovative glove technology and revolutionary functionality makes Burton gloves the perfect choices for any serious rider.
