POC Thermal Glove may well offer the best combination of a sleek fit and great tactile response in a thermal glove to date. It takes full advantage of two Primaloft insulation technologies and creates a glove that is lightweight, and carries flexible padding that is barely noticeable. A brushed fleece lining inside feels soft on the ski, holds some heat, and releases moisture from the skin. This overall combination is deal for riders who want complete freedom of movement and reliable protection with some real thermal value during performance riding activities in the cold. Primaloft's Gold ECO with grip control insulation is used for the palm, while the Primaloft's Gold Aerogel is used on the back of the hand for an unrivaled warmth-to-weight ratio.

The VPD Air padding is both highly flexible and highly ventilated for optimal freedom of movement, comfort and temperature control. The pad is housed in reinforced stretch fabric that stays securely in place thanks to an inner lining of anti-slip neoprene and an elastic strap with velcro fastening. The low-profile design further supports practicality and comfort, enhancing the barely-there feel of the pads. The exterior is water repellent, but not a true heavy rain barrier, given the fabric's stretch capacity. The leather palm is thinner for better feel and consistent all-temperature grip in damp or dry conditions. Reflective zones on the fingers enhance visibility, while touch-screen compatible pads on the thumb and index finger ensure phone functionality.
