Traverse gloves

The traverse is my favorite gloves that I use all season long. There are probably gloves that are better suited to specific hunting conditions ; however, these are a great option for all around use. They are comfortable, durable, reasonably warm, and they allow for an appropriate amount of dexterity.

What a shame.

I've had my size medium made in China Traverse gloves for years and they were awesome. I ordered a new size medium (not made in China) and they are way too tight. I ordered a size large and they were way too tight as well. As they are I cannot trust they will stretch and stay stretched enough to be usable and not restrict my circulation. Sent both pairs back. Lost twenty bucks in shipping.

Fits like a glove!

Great fit! I ordered a large and fits exactly as described. Insulated material kept my fingers warm but I was still able to draw and release my bow, so very flexible- not bulky. I really enjoyed the gloves but they were stolen out of my vehicle last month. I will be ordering another pair.

Traverse Gloves

I’ve yet to be disappointed by a Sitka product. Size, fit, durability, etc. Gear that is made by people that use it. These gloves are no different. I’ve accumulated a wardrobe of Sitka and each item is a go to item for different situations and environments. Keep it up ladies and gents!

Favorite Gloves

I originally started using these for now hunting as they don’t affect my draw cycle and still keep my hands warm with hand warmers in my pockets during November in Iowa. I also use them for police work. They do not after my draw, magazine changes or hands on encounters. I can also take notes and operate electronics. I will buy more when these wear out.

Good, but…

The gloves do the job just fine. They are pretty form fitting and I ordered one size up. I still have good dexterity with them on. They seem to be built with a decent quality, not quite the price paid for them and along with that, they are fraying and the fabric is pilling really bad on only the second wear.

Exactly What I Wanted

I upland hunt from November through February each year, often in cold weather. I need gloves that keep my hands warm but still allow me to operate a shotgun and remote control for my bird dog collars. I can say without a doubt that the Sitka Traverse gloves do all of that to perfection. This past bird season, I wore my traverse gloves while pheasant hunting in South Dakota in single digit temperatures, and my hands were still warm. I give them my highest recommendation.

Great for early to mid season hunts!

Perfect amount of warmth and dexterity for those cool October mornings. I wear these bow hunting early/mid season and they work pretty well.

Great gloves for bow hunting

Great gloves for bow hunting in temps down to around 30 degrees or even colder if you have some hand warmers stowed away in your jacket , I have big hands but went with a large so they would be snug with no loose feeling

Great gloves for dexterity and southern Alabama cold mornings

These gloves end up being much better than I expected. Thought the XL gloves were going to be too small but they broke in to be a perfect fit. I usually wear 2XL. Good quality!

Traverse Gloves

I have been through multiple pairs of these gloves. They fit great, they are lightweight, and warm. I tend to abuse my gear, so they eventually show some wear. For type of glove they are they have held up decently.
