Eddie Bauer Guide Pro Smart Heated Gloves vs Hestra Heater Gauntlet Glove

Buy the Eddie Bauer Guide Pro Smart Heated Gloves if you want active, adjustable warmth on cold commutes, skiing or winter work. The Clim8 heating runs 68-95°F and holds a set temperature, and the WeatherEdge Plus 10k/10k membrane and Pittards leather shell handle wet snow and grip well. The Hestra Heater Gauntlet is the better glove for deep cold and long days on the mountain: a five-finger gauntlet cut, a proven leather build and Hestra's reputation for durability. Owners of heated gloves generally report that batteries fade after a few seasons, so treat the Hestra as the longer-lived shell and the Eddie Bauer as the warmer-on-demand option.

• Choose the Eddie Bauer Guide Pro if you want on-demand heat you can tune, a waterproof leather shell and a glove that works for commuting, shoveling and resort skiing.
• Choose the Hestra Heater Gauntlet if you ride in serious cold, want a gauntlet cuff over your jacket and value a glove built to last many seasons.
