Burton [ak]® Clutch GORE-TEX Gloves | True Black

The Burton [ak]® Clutch GORE-TEX Gloves are built for riders who demand uncompromising performance in harsh winter conditions. Designed for both snowboarding and skiing, they deliver reliable storm protection while maintaining the dexterity needed to manage gear without removing your gloves. A GORE-TEX membrane provides guaranteed waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection, while the leather palm delivers natural grip and long-lasting durability. The DRYRIDE softshell exterior keeps the gloves flexible and comfortable, making it easy to adjust bindings, boots, and zippers even in cold weather. When temperatures drop, Primaloft® Gold insulation traps heat efficiently without adding bulk. Every detail is focused on control, warmth, and dependability for long days on the mountain, whether riding lifts or heading out on a tour.

Performance

On snow, the Clutch GORE-TEX Gloves stand out for their consistent performance in changing conditions. They keep hands dry during heavy snowfall and block cold wind without sacrificing breathability. Primaloft® Gold insulation provides steady warmth while preserving freedom of movement, avoiding the stiffness common in bulky gloves. The ergonomic pre-curved fit follows the natural shape of the hand, reducing fatigue and improving control during extended sessions. These gloves are built for riders who need dependable warmth, protection, and precision from first chair to last run.

Functional construction

The functional construction combines premium materials with rider-focused details. Durable goat leather palms ensure excellent grip and abrasion resistance, while the DRYRIDE softshell fabric adds flexibility and comfort. Inside, a fixed brushed microfiber lining feels soft against the skin and helps retain warmth. The extended storm cuff is designed for an under-cuff fit, improving the seal against snow and wind and keeping heat locked in during demanding conditions.

Technology applied to performance

At the core of these gloves is GORE-TEX technology, backed by the GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™ promise for reliable waterproof and breathable protection. Primaloft® Gold insulation delivers high thermal efficiency with minimal weight. Gore Active technology enhances mobility, while water-repellent components are made without intentionally added PFAS. The result is a high-performance glove that balances technical protection with responsible material choices.
