The Hestra Women's Fall Line (style 3002080) is a warm leather freeride glove with a removable liner and, by Hestra's own Performance spec, no waterproof membrane. The trade-off: leather feel, 6/8 dexterity and 6/8 durability, for a shell that is water-resistant rather than sealed.
The shell is impregnated cowhide — Hestra's words: "durable and proofed cowhide" — with foam across the backhand. Insulation is G-Loft — in Hestra's words, "a very thin 100% polyester fiber with exceptionally high insulating capacity, even in wet conditions." Box Finger construction sews a panel into the side of each finger instead of folding the leather flat, leaving dead air around the finger instead of leather pressed against it — how a glove this dexterous still insulates.
Hestra rates it Warmth 5/8 — "Toasty," which it defines as "noticeably warm — built for sustained exposure to cold." The product badge row reads "Removable Lining | Windproof." It does not say waterproof; the structured Performance spec is explicit: Waterproof: No. Hestra's own explanation: the glove "does not include a waterproof membrane. It may offer water resistance from its outer material but is not designed to keep hands dry in sustained wet conditions." Proofed leather sheds wind and dry snow; sustained wet eventually gets through. In return the leather breathes, can be re-proofed as it wears, and the liner pulls out to dry overnight.
This is the women's cut — Hestra's phrase: "a slimmer cut to fit women's narrower hands" — pre-curved, with a short neoprene cuff and Velcro closure made to sit under the jacket sleeve, not over it. Hestra sizes by hand circumference in numbers, not S/M/L; the official run is 5 to 12. PTO stocks 6, 7 and 8; both colourways we carry, Cerise and Bordeaux, come in all three. Hestra publishes no centimetre conversion here; measure against its size guide.
It suits skiers in cold to mixed snow who want durable leather, finger control on straps and buckles, and a liner they can dry or replace (art. 3003050, sold separately). On wet or maritime days the physics are against it: Hestra's own CZone Mountain 5-finger carries a membrane, rates Waterproof: Yes and 6/8 warmth, and costs less — while giving up dexterity (5/8) and durability (5/8). If your hands run cold, the Fall Line mitt (3002081) is the same family at the same price in a mitten shell: more trapped air, less finger dexterity.
