Marmot Armageddon Undercuff Glove Review

The Marmot Armageddon Undercuff Glove is equipped to go to battle with the mountain, and no, it won’t be taking any prisoners. After just a single session with these paw protectors, you really get a feel for Marmot’s dedication to materials and technology. They refused to skimp on either when it came to building this rugged glove that can take a seemingly endless beating.

Ski racers have a history of loving the Armageddon, and it is even the official glove of Marmot’s freeride ski team, but there is another reason entirely for snowboarders to adore these hand-huggers. Anyone who makes tree runs a standard part of their shred schedule has found themselves grabbing and latching onto trees to help swing around and make a turn here and there. You got to do what you got to do sometimes, which is fine, but that practice generally rips up gloves that weren’t meant to handle that level of abuse. However, the Armageddon is studly enough to take it on. Not only are they made of super durable materials, but they also have fully padded high impact zones that will defend your digits like Aragorn at the Battle of Helm’s Deep.

Sure, there are a few insanely tough gloves out there, but what sets the Armageddon apart is the combination of waterproofing, warmth, breathability and superior fit that it provides. Polartec Thermal Pro insulation keeps your high-fivers nice and toasty even when the thermometer is frozen over, and Marmot’s MemBrain insert does absolute work to make the whole package dry inside and out. The undercuff design slides nicely under your sleeves and the outfinished seams in the palm provide a pristine fit.

If you need a glove that can keep your hands warm and dry while also dishing out a mean dose of rugged durability, feel free to look elsewhere, but know that your quest will ultimately end with the Marmot Armageddon Undercuff Glove.
