Canada Goose Utility Gloves

Scraping windows, cleaning the snow off the vehicle and shovelling the driveway are not the chores for which anyone says "Pick me! Pick me!" But maybe … if the shovel, scraper or brooms are held by fancy Canada Goose gloves, the chores will be less onerous. Who am I kidding?

I tested Canada Goose Utility gloves on a -17 C day. I shovelled the snow and brushed it off the truck, then went for a spin to see if the gloves were okay to wear while driving. And I have to say they did the job nicely – my hands stayed toasty warm.

Features I liked the best start at the wrist. The extra-long fleece stops any snow from slipping through the cracks, and the cuff tightens with a toothy tug on the leather toggle. The goatskin leather on the fingers and palms grip everything and offer good grip on the frozen steering wheel until the cabin warms up. The soft nose wipe on the thumb will be appreciated when it really gets cold.

Thinking they were pricey, I compared them with other brands. For the extra few dollars, the quality exceeded the others – hands down. Will the cool logo get the teens cleaning the driveway?
