Re: Ibex Hooded Indie or Capilene 4 Expedition Weight 1/4 Zip Hooded Top

Re: More durable, MLD Event rain mitts or Zpacks WPB Cuben mitts?
Neither. Outdoor Research Versalite gloves. You get gloves (the shells) at the same weight, or less. Plus, a "free" pair of liners. If you want to go real lightweight, some Nitrile glo...
