Dakine Mens Gunmetal Patriot Glove - 10001402-GUNMETAL-S. Founded in Hawaii in 1979 and located at the base of Mt. Hood in Hood River, Oregon, Dakine builds backpacks, travel bags, accessories, outerwear and clothing for people who love to surf, snowboard, skateboard, mountain bike, ski, windsurf, kiteboard and travel. If the standard ski glove isn't for you, try the Dakine Patriot Glove. The 440g knit face fleece is soft, and the embossed PU Dakine logo badge on the backhand adds to the classic heritage look. A synthetic suede palm patch stretches into the thumb and forefinger to provide better grip and added durability. It's a fun, modern take on the traditional knit glove.
