Black Diamond has a prominent reputation among trekking poles and rock climbing equipment, and is a leading brand of mountaineering equipment, but in the field of ski equipment, it is not well-known. Since its establishment in 1957, it has branches in Europe, the United States and Asia, and in 2006, it established a subsidiary in Zhuhai in China, which is a secondary manufacturing plant responsible for global distribution.
 
Although Black Diamond divides ski gloves into Pro, ASCENT, Freeride, and Lightweight series, they are still somewhat "amateurish" compared to brands that specialize in making gloves. Designed for skiers, the Pro series is positioned at the premium end for durability and extreme weather insulation, and is priced between $44.95 and $199.95. The ASCENT series is suitable for a variety of scenarios, in addition to skiing, it can also climb mountains, and has good wear resistance, priced at $69.95-219.95. Combining the best materials and technical features, the Freeride range offers a range of ski gloves for beginners and enthusiasts, including children's ski gloves, priced between $59.95 and $349.95. The Black Diamond Lightweight series of gloves can be used indoors on the ski slopes or outdoors in sunny weather, the length is concentrated at the wrist, the length is short, the warmth is more average, the style is basic, and the price is around $50.
 
The Black Diamond guide is often ranked in the top three ski gloves and is also Black Diamond's signature ski glove. Using a variety of warm materials, and foam padding on the finger area, the overall is very thick and warm, but it reduces flexibility and has a break-in period, unlike Hestra Army Leather Heli, which can achieve a good tactile feel after the first use. The membrane is made of Gore-Tex® fabric, which is windproof and waterproof. The lining is made of wool to absorb hand sweat in time and keep the inside dry, and the lining is detachable and easy to replace, suitable for use in extremely low temperatures, priced at $169.95. On the other hand, the gloves are overkill when used in weather around -10°C.
 
When it comes to warmth, the Black Diamond Mercury mitten, PrimaLoft ®Gold, a high-fluffy wool material that gives skiers a warm and soft hand feel, is made of completely waterproof BDry material, which is warmer and more waterproof than the Hestra Army Leather Heli Ski 3-Finger, but in terms of flexibility, Black Diamond Mercury Mitten looks clumsy when performing actions such as zippering. The outer layer is made of goatskin with Kevlar stitching for durability. With a removable lining and touchscreen design that makes it easy to use your phone while skiing, this $109.95 model is a practical mid-to-high-end ski glove.
 
The domestic distributor is Shenzhen Himalayan Trading Company, which currently only sells trekking poles, ski poles, searchlights and other equipment, and has not yet introduced a series of ski gloves.
