loved the fit of these gloves. . .
the most out of all the BD gloves i tried but i went with the impulse gloves bc they seem like they are rated for colder weather (although annoyingly BD has 2 different temperature ratings at different parts of the web page for both the impulse and legend gloves. (come on guys! :)) one area of Legend's page shows them rated 0-15F and another area says 0-30F. one area of Impulse page says 0-15 then another area say -5-25F. they also show the Impulse gloves having different weights 266. 3g and then 280g lol. i went with impulse gloves bc they are thicker and therefore have to be rated for colder weather im guessing. (also the permaloft rating is better in the Impulse. ) my hands are 8. 6 inches long and 9. 2 inches circumference. i went with large evethough i am bt L and XL. my fingers are long but palms are not girthy and i also figure these wil stretch out a lot being they are leather

Better than expected!
Very warm, very comfortable and exceptionally well made. These are my new all around go to gloves – hiking, skiing, snowshoeing, and even walking the dogs.

Best gloves ever!!
I just got back from a 5 day skiing and snowmobiling trip. Weather varied from 5 degrees to 20 most days. They were very comfortable. Even when I accidentally filled them with snow, they warmed up. Thanks BD! B

Nimble and Warm
I’m a ski dad so dexterity and warmth are the game these days. With the Legends I can tend to little zippers and snack bags while keeping these gloves on and keeping my fingers warm. I’ve only been out a few days in them so far but the leather is holding up with carrying multiple skis and adjusting bindings. These are good for the average day out.

Runs small
These are bomber gloves, but they run small! I ordered a large using the BD sizing chart, measured at the bottom end of the large size, and these are snug. I thought they would be fine, but first time out in snow - very difficult to get on if your hands are damp or have any snow on them. Unfortunately too late to exchange - already waxed them. Bummer.

Amazing gloves
Super good fit, great dexterity and very warm. Leather quality is really good too. First pair of BD gloves for me. Excited to see how they age.

Best Glove Made
I am a gearhead and have a thing for trying gloves. I have tried everything from Burton to Moncler. There are a lot of really good gloves out there, but these stand out and have the features I look for. The wrist system is one that goes under the sleeve, which I like, but most under-the-sleeve gloves let in powder in the backcountry. These gloves wrist closure is extended (a little longer than all others) so they stay under the sleeve and no gaps form to let in pow. They are warm and the gor tex repels water very nicely. Lastly, they just look good and are at a very reasonable price point. Well done BDE.

SO Warm, fragile
These gloves are SO warm. I've had them in the field well below 0 and I find I don't need to grab my mitts. Downside is the leather in the palm is SUPER fragile. This is my second pair and they tear super easily. Be careful and if you're using them for guiding or patrolling, maybe don't make them the go to for heavy duty use.

Great dexterity at the cost of durability and a little warmth
Great mid-warm gloves, but the leather is a bit too soft and lacks durability. Will be great for ski touring and warmer days as long as you are careful around your ski edges. They are warm for the weight, but also very light.
