Perfect as part of a glove layering system or on their own, the Stance Mitts are a versatile addition to your cold-weather kit.

Black Diamond says: 

Designed to echo the insulating performance of our Stance Belay Parka, the Black Diamond Stance Mitts are highly packable and built to keep your fingers toasty on ski tours, winter hikes and even post-storm, car-clearing sessions. An ultralight Pertex Quantum Pro Shell, with an included drawcord stuff sack to provide compressed storage, PrimaLoft® Gold Cross Core insulation, and a synthetic leather palm patch for added durability make the Stance the perfect, lightweight, packable emergency piece to keep with you at all times.

Our Verdict

The Black Diamond Stance Mitts are a lightweight, packable solution for keeping your hands warm in cold conditions. They also function effectively as an insulating layer within a glove layering system. With PrimaLoft® Gold insulation and an ultralight Pertex Quantum Pro shell, these mitts provide excellent warmth without bulk, making them ideal for ski tours, winter hikes, or as a backup layer.

Weighing just 68g for a medium pair and coming with a stuff sack for easy storage, they can be quickly deployed when extra warmth is needed. The suede goat leather palm adds durability and is rated for temperatures between -9°C and 0°C.
