Mittens for 2015/16

d
My old school Dakine Mittens bit the dust last year - I wish I would have bought a dozen pair of them back in 1998, but I didn't.


My first attempt at replacement was Marmot PreCip Shell Mitts -

They were warm and waterproof... but they started falling apart after 6 days of riding. The "Falcon Grip" palm material had significantly more wear after 6 days (and no rope tows) than my 16 year old Dakine Mitts with 100+ days and some rope tow action.

...and then I lost them... so, good excuse to replace them.


I'd like to get something as close to my old Dakine Mitts as possible.

Here is what I'm looking for:

Shell type Mitten
Removable MITTEN (not glove) liner
Waterproof/water resistant
Wicking (Goretex, NanoPro, whatever)
TOUGH Palms

Suggestions?
