Da Kine Cobra Glove

The Cobra does it all.
Into my second season, still as warm and comfy as first day wearing.
The glove is a must for any outdoors activities (which does not include walking the dog!).
For you doglovers, keep in mind that the glove is made for comfort when in action, which requires that the glove also breathes. This glove breathes perfectly, which again makes it warm and comfy. If you put this on and dont move your hand for 15 minutes, of course your hand will be cold, this is not a handoven, or do you think gloves produces heatfor you?! Well, think again. A winterglove from Dakine is for high intensity outdoor activities.

Tip for making this glove last longer; spend some money on som grease, vazeline, oil or any petrolatum, and rub them in.
Keeps 'em in shape :)

And a last word of truth from a Norwegian: The Cobra does handle effective -40 celcius.

I’ve had the Dakine Cobra gloves for a few months now and have taken them out in 25 degree weather and most recently
-1 degree weather with wind chill temps making it close to -20 degrees. The gloves held up nicely warm and mostly dry until the later part of the day. After sweat or moisture from the conditions got them a little wet, they did lose some of their warmth, but not enough to cause any cold finger issues. I would say they're a good buy if you don't plan on riding or skiing in a lot of sub zero days, but would like a glove that can handle the cold times when you don't want to wear your pipe/park gloves. They look great, I would say in reality they are a mid profile rather than low profile glove and Dakine truly makes a quality product, so I'm hooked!

I got these gloves when they first came out. So this review is alittle dated but read on.. I have had a great experience with these gloves and really cant complain much about them. They have kept my hands warm and dry for a few seasons. Fortunately enough none of the stitching has come undone. I will say the palm, leather portion, gets wet in the east coast snow and warmer weather. My hand has never gotten wet from it though. I bought them in white and with little to no problem they have stayed white with no washing or extra care!

I think that skiiers might have the best results with this glove because of the grippy surface on the palm and the padding on the backside of the hand. I'm a snowboarder who is very happy with dry warm hands and would reccoment these to anyone.

I've had these gloves for three seasons and the leather/rubber palm is starting to wear a bit near the stitching, having been dragged through quite a long distance. They're decently rugged. They're still extremely warm and still waterproof, just as the day I bought them. I would highly recommend these gloves to anybody that isn't a first-timer snowboarding because these aren't gauntlet-style. But for non-beginners, it's great because it's soft, warm, lightweight, small, and works for most any situation. It's Gore Tex material so you know it will definitely keep the water out. You can put them on and dunk your hand in a pool and water won't get in (unless it pours in from the cuff, then you're just stupid). The thumbs are a bit long for me, but maybe I just have short thumbs.

I live and ride in Jackson Hole, riding 100 days a season...It's very cold and windy on some of our upper faces, and the Cobras are very warm, especially for being an underglove, and perfect for this environment. The DWR finish on the leather keeps the gloves from feeling waterlogged/heavy, and the Gore-Tex inserts keep you dry in the wettest of conditions.

Never a problem with leather wearing out or stitching problems. I'm on my 2nd pair only because they start to smell funky for as much as I'm on the mountain!

An amazing value for an underglove and hard to beat given its tech/features.

These gloves are warm and I love the low-profile wrist cuffs that fit underneath my shell. Gauntlets will keep snow out better in case you wipe out, but I find them more annoying to take on and off repeatedly. The Velcro strap adjustment on the wrist cuff isn't very well designed, it's a bit short but still better than nothing. These gloves aren't bulky so dexterity is great given how warm they are. I've only worn these gloves on a few day trips, but other folks have experienced the seams coming loose. Time will tell how durable they are, but so far they are great.

I have used these gloves for just this season and the there is already a rip on the wrist stap. But other than that these gloves do the job. They aren't as low profile as i thought they would be (actually pretty bulky). But in the end they do their main job of keeping my hands warm great! On the cold cold days i wear laytex surgeon gloves under them and that works like a charm. My hands were on fire when it was dipping below zero! A nice glove at a nice price.

I have two pairs of these gloves because they are just that awesome. They are the perfect fit for any riding your doin and they are soooo warm. My hands are the first things to go when it is cold. I've ridden with these in sub-zero temps and felt cozy and warm. Their not bulky and have the feel of a park glove but are gore-tex and are great when your shredin so sick powder lines too. Do your hands a favor and pick up a pair......or maybe two?

These are really great gloves. I have always had cold hands when i would ski, even to the point where I fell off a lift onetime because of it. But I have yet to get really cold hands. They aren't that great for just standing around, but they don't get your hands to warm when skiing hard. Great all around gloves. The waterproofing is really good also. The only thing that isn't good is that the cuff is a little short, but other than that, I love them.
