The STX Polar Winter Gloves are great for those players who want the extra protection around the thumb and backhand. These gloves will keep your hands warm and will allow you to play comfortably for hours with a pair of STX Polar Winter Gloves. Foam padding along the thumb and backhand provide protection where you need it most while still allowing full freedom of movement. The Insulating thermal materials trap the heat inside the glove to keep your hands warm and flexible. A thin, fully closed palm material enables flexibility, grip, and a sensitive feel.
