Spark Glove

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I took the Black Diamond Spark Gloves on a week of touring in variable conditions, and they handled everything from cold, dry powder days to wet storm snow without missing a beat. The goat leather shell is noticeably more durable than synthetic alternatives, and the PrimaLoft Gold insulation keeps real warmth without the bulk that usually comes with a glove rated this deep into the cold. The Freeride Cuff seals out snow under the jacket sleeve better than almost anything else I have tested in this category."

Deep resort laps and long backcountry days share one thing in common: they punish gear that was not built for the full commitment. The Black Diamond Spark Gloves are built for exactly that, combining a super-tough full goat leather shell with a BD.dry waterproof and breathable insert to create a glove that holds up to rogue tree branches, repeated pole plants, and the prolonged abuse that a serious day on the mountain delivers without breaking down.

Inside, a buttery-soft fleece lining works alongside PrimaLoft Gold insulation to keep hands genuinely warm across a temperature range of 18 to 9°C, with 133g in the backhand and 60g in the palm for a distribution that prioritizes warmth where the cold finds you first without sacrificing the dexterity needed to operate buckles, zippers, and bindings. EVA foam padding across the back of the hand and knuckles adds impact protection for the moments the mountain fights back, and the Freeride Cuff hooks and loops under the jacket sleeve for a seal that keeps snow out and heat in no matter how deep the powder gets.
