Dirtball( no offense man, no offense) please re post after you use those gloves for 10-15 rides. I have found that gloves "wear out fast" and lost that awesome water proof ness after some use.
Is there a good thin snowmobile glove?

KLIM powercross, waterproof and breathable, compact and light weight. They have a thinner glove that is similar to a mechanics glove but it is not waterproof, I use that in the spring on nice days, but the Powercross does a great job in the winter.
If someone make a mechanics glove that is goretex or waterproof, they will have an instant winner.

Ok, no offense taken. I only have 4-5 rides left till I start calving. I'll update then.
Not Neoprene , they claim to be 100% water proof not sure about that but they do work good just bought a new pair!!!

those frosty grip work type gloves you can get at at almost any gas station.
And Burton just so happens to an ANTI snowmobile company!!! I personally will go without before supporting a company that does NOT support us as snowmobilers!

I wear and swear by the KLIM inversion glove.
BUT...
I keep a set of shells handy and quick draw to put over them when I'm digging out.
I've tried pretty much all of the gloves and if you want thin with a good tight fit... there are some compromises... for me... slapping on a set of shells over the gloves when I'm stuck is not that big of a deal.
The True Adventure gloves are also top notch ...but I'd put a shell over those too when stuck.

That's a great idea with the shells on the inversion. I love those gloves but the lack of being waterproof is where they lack. I'll have to experiment with some shells with them.

Sorry for the lame post. Good gloves but a non-supportive company. Go Figure !!! >>>>.
No worries! That's the crappy part. So many companies make fantastic products but are anti-motorized activists. North Face being another one of them. Here is a link to a thread I started a while back that has a lot of good info
