What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:“These mitts are like a down belay parka for your hands. The 3-finger design gives you extra dexterity over a standard mitt, while the BD. dry insert keeps things waterproof and breathable. I reach for these when I’m ice climbing or doing alpine routes where frozen fingers aren’t an option.”The Black Diamond Alpine 3-Finger Mittens are engineered for winter’s harshest conditions, combining expedition-level warmth with technical dexterity. Built around BD. dry™, Black Diamond’s waterproof and breathable membrane, these mitts lock out snow and wind while allowing heat and moisture to escape. A goatskin leather palm with reinforced patches ensures durability against ropes, tools, and rock, while a plush recycled polyester sherpa fleece lining at the backhand keeps warmth close where you need it most. The unique 3-finger design strikes the balance between mitten-level insulation and glove-like control, giving climbers and alpinists the ability to handle ropes, carabiners, and tools without sacrificing warmth. From frozen belays to storm-battered ridges, the quick-cinch cuff, carabiner loop, and pairing clip make these mitts as practical as they are protective. For climbers who demand dependable warmth with alpine functionality, the Alpine 3-Finger Mitt is a trusted cold-weather partner.
