In the field of ski gloves, the brand that must not be ignored is Xuanchi. From the time the first pair of gloves was made in 1934, its history revolved around gloves. In the past, it also launched equipment such as football clothing, helmets, and goggles, but after the turn of the millennium, Xuanchi changed its business strategy and stopped selling such products, and continued to work in the field of gloves that it does best.
 
Xuanchi gloves are divided into two major glove categories: football and skiing, and its football gloves account for almost one-third of the goalkeeper gloves market, and are the leading brands of football gloves. Ski gloves are supplied to ski federations in Switzerland, France, the United States and other countries, and also collaborate with skiers such as Marcel Hirscher, Lindsey Vonn and Mikaela Shiffrin.
 
As one of the ski clothing equipment, ski gloves are no less applied in fabric technology than a ski suit. In addition to the use and superposition of Gore-Tex® fabric, Xuanchi ski gloves are also good at self-developed glove film layer, among which R-TEX®XT technology has windproof and moisture-resistant performance, creating gloves with light weight and comfortable wearing experience. Another STORMBLOXX™ technology is pressed on the inside of the outer layer, which is able to withstand high winds when going downhill, and has good wind resistance, which is often used in alpine ski gloves.
 
As a leader in the glove consumer market, Xuanchi has a wide range of products and a high degree of segmentation, which is divided into ALPINE, MATADORS, RACING, FREERIDE, MULTIFUNCTION, SNOWBOARD and so on. One of the best is the ALPINE series of gloves, suitable for alpine skiers, mostly using R-LOFT™ thermal layer, this technology is exclusive to Xuanchi, can lock the heat of the hand in the glove, can also be used below 0°C, light weight, bring a comfortable and soft wearing feeling. Most of the shells of this series of gloves are made of goatskin, which is durable and sturdy, but the leather gloves need to be run in to become soft and close, and the subsequent care can not be less.
 
THE MATADORS ARE A SPORTS SIGNATURE COLLABORATION AND ARE SOLD IN JUST SEVEN SKI GLOVES. Among them, the ALEXIS PINTURAULT GTX GORE GRIP TECHNOLOGY is a alpine ski glove co-created by athletes Alexis Pinturault and Xuanchi, which is made of Gore-Tex® fabric and Gore grip technology to tightly combine the layers to make an excellent grip and flexibility. The finger part has joint protection, which can give a certain anti-collision protection when touching the ground. The soft goatskin palm fits the cane well and has a responsive grip and is available in sizes between 6.5 and 11 for both men and women and is priced at 174.38 euros.
 
The ski gloves in the RACING series are all five-finger design, made of leather and nylon, which can achieve basic wind protection and warmth, and the Ground Control™ technology on the back of the fingers allows skiers to enhance their control and balance when cornering and touching the ground. If you have a joint injury or need to protect your joints, it is safer to choose gloves with one-piece hard plastic. In addition, the RACING series is printed on the palm of the hand, which is wear-resistant and durable. The series is expensive, priced at around 2000 yuan.
 
THE REST OF THE FREERIDE, MULTIFUNCTION, SNOWBOARD AND OTHER SERIES ARE NOT AS PROMINENT AS THE ALPINE SERIES, AND SKIERS USE THEM LESS, BUT AS A HOBBYIST, THE PERFORMANCE IS GOOD ENOUGH, BUT THE PRICE IS ON THE HIGH SIDE, AND THE REST OF THE BRANDS HAVE BETTER OPTIONS. At present, Xuanchi is sold through Beijing Travel Rat Outdoor Products Co., Ltd., both online and offline, and adult sizes start from 7, and there are not many styles, and skiers with small hands are recommended to shop overseas.
