Dakine Cougar Gloves
April 5, 2009
Embrace your inner feline with the Cougar Gloves from Backcountry.com.
OK ladies, here’s your big chance to try the gear that nets younger husbands. With these gloves, you’ll be unstoppable at your local apres-ski haunt, preying on those out-of-towner twentysomethings and worshipping your goddess, Demi Moore. No, just kidding, these aren’t for THAT kind of Cougar. Actually, I really don’t know why they are called “cougar” gloves, but I DO know that I repeatedly turn to these gloves when the pow is flying. They’re really well-padded (read: not nimble) and moderately warm, which is nice, but what keeps me coming back is the well-sized wrist cuff that keeps wayward snow out of my sleeves. Dakine has thought of everything; giving you a nose wipe patch AND a goggle squeegee, one on the left glove and one on the right. Of course I keep forgetting which glove has which, and I’ve had some painful nose-squeegeeing incidents. You’d think I’d learn….
