Description
Give your young rider the confidence to push their limits and the protection they need with the DAKINE Youth Wristguard Gloves. Designed for aspiring snowboarders and skiers in Utah and beyond, these gloves are a smart solution to help prevent wrist injuries, one of the most common tumbles on the mountain, without sacrificing warmth or comfort. Perfect for kids learning to fall properly or just charging hard at Snowbasin.
The core of these gloves’ protection lies in the removable rigid nylon supports strategically placed on both the backhand and palm. These internal plates are designed to absorb impact and minimize the risk of sprains or fractures, while still allowing enough flexibility for natural hand movement.
Beyond the integrated wrist guards, these gloves deliver serious winter performance. They feature a DK DRY™ waterproof and breathable insert, ensuring little hands stay dry from melting snow and internal moisture. Inside, Hi Loft synthetic insulation (often a blend of recycled polyester and polyester, typically 110/230g fill) provides excellent warmth without excessive bulk. The shell is durable, often a blend of recycled polyester and polyester with a PFC-Free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, while the palm often features Rubbertec or a similar durable synthetic material for enhanced grip. A cozy 300g fleece lining adds a layer of comfort. With a one-hand cinch gauntlet cuff closure and an adjustable hook-and-loop wrist strap, these gloves seal out snow effectively and offer a secure fit, making the Dakine Youth Wristguard Gloves a smart and essential piece of gear for any young shredder.
