The Best Ski Gloves of 2026
Oct 1, 2025
Many people associate Leki gloves with the trigger system that locks into the brand’s poles. While that collection remains alive and well, the Montera Prime is part of the new Zero line, which steps away from the trigger to deliver a more classic, stand-alone glove. Made from 100-percent goatskin, the Montera Prime delivers durability and weather-proofing with a strong, water-resistant finish. Inside, synthetic PrimaLoft Gold insulation retains heat, while a unique, cotton-derived fiber, called Micro Bemberg, promotes air circulation and keeps unwanted moisture at bay. On the palm, Genuine Grip silicone-reinforced pads improve grip on your pole and on the cuff, an integrated pull loop enables easy on-off to adjust gear or sift through your pockets. This unisex glove is built for skiers who value precise dexterity without sacrificing warmth.
