Rab Operator GORE-TEX® Gloves

These GORE-TEX® Gloves deliver the waterproof protection and secure grip you need for any big mountain day in unpredictable weather.

Backcountry skiing, midwinter hikes, weather-beaten scrambles: wherever you’re headed, these midweight waterproof gloves allow you to grip securely and operate in all conditions. They’re built with a stretchy woven outer and GORE-TEX® Product Technology to bring you breathable windproof and waterproof protection, keeping your hands dry and warm on exposed trails and frozen summit transitions. The gloves’ seams are stitched externally, which minimises bulk and allows the lining and outer shell to sit closer together.

This improves tactile sensitivity by reducing dead space between the layers, ideal for handling skins and adjusting bindings. Warmth is provided by PrimaLoft® Gold insulation and a cosy high pile lining on the backs of your hands. With a grippy low-bulk palm offering superb dexterity and a comfortable pre-curved fit, these gloves offer the utility you need to take on big mountain lines in unforgiving conditions.

• The cuffs are large enough to accommodate your smartwatch, with a hook-and-loop adjustment ensuring a close fit.
• Keep your gloves secure on exposed terrain with the removable wrist leashes.
• Pull the gloves on and off with ease using the handy webbing wrist loop.
• Superb grip with a goat leather palm and fingers, plus a soft leather nosewipe for when you haven’t got a tissue to hand.
• Easy to stow away, with a side release clip and a knuckle loop allowing you to attach to your harness.
