The Approach Glove is engineered for climbers and alpinists who need dexterity without sacrificing warmth.

Purpose-built for handling ropes, gear, and technical terrain, it bridges the gap between a lightweight liner and a full winter mitt. A mid-weight, mid season glove designed for the "approach" phase of climbing, alpine, hiking, scrambling, and technical rope work you do getting to and moving through a route.
Precision Where It Counts A split-finger design isolates the index finger for precise rope handling, belay device management, and gear manipulation, while a pre-curved palm keeps your hand in a natural, relaxed grip position reducing fatigue on long approaches and multi-pitch days.
Built to Last A full grain leather palm delivers exceptional abrasion resistance and rope feel, with reinforced fingertips standing up to repeated contact with rock, hardware, and rope friction. This is a glove made to work hard, pitch after pitch.
Weather-Ready The waterproof softshell shell uses a PFAS-free DWR finish to shed snow, sleet, and damp conditions without compromising breathability keeping your hands dry and mobile as conditions shift. A secure neoprene cuff seals out the elements and layers cleanly under a jacket cuff.
Warm, Not Bulky A soft brushed interior lining adds warmth exactly where you need it, without adding bulk that compromises grip or dexterity. Ideal for that mid-season window where a heavyweight glove is overkill but bare hands aren't an option.
