Not sure what to make of these windproof softshell gloves. They have external protruding seams, as if they were sewn inside out. That differs from the product displayed on Berghaus’s website and from the image provided.

The inner face fabric seems denser too, which I’d expect on the outer. Both variants feature an elasticated wrist and Lycra-bound opening, as well as linking clips. The fabric is Gore Windstopper and the test sample’s palms are reinforced with Pittards leather. Curious that such a quality material isn’t mentioned on the website.
