Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Venta Gloves

I bought them in August 29, 2020, I am in love with how stylish they are, how temperature management is and how the good in snow and wind! Currently wore them 5+ times for intended use(2 full days of winter backpacking, few times for 5+ mile winter trail run, couple days of trekking) if temperature drop in city life, i am wearing them as daily gloves. works well with screen. but big cons is DURABILITY, really sad, also water gets inside after couple of uses through the seams on fingers, so i washed the with Nikwax for Gore tex products in cold water, now its much better and water not getting in, so i can stay dry. 3/5 just because of durability. Thanks for reading

I bought these gloves a year ago due to the near perfect fit. No other has fit me so well. A store employee said the same. These are not for COLD weather. Great when between 28-40F, and little wind. Anything below 28F, and low wind chills, and your fingers will feel it. The leather thumb also came apart on both gloves within a month. I only used them when driving, or hiking. For a premiere glove, I was slightly disappointed. I will not buy another pair.

Good glove but will fall apart in short, short time. Ive ran thru 3 pairs in 3 months. Arcteryx needs to fix this because it is a great glove.. would not reccommend because of the lack of quality stiching.

They run small. Though for higher output activities exposed to wind and precipitation these are great. Likewise for a casual/elegant everyday wear in cold conditions. The cuff is a fatal flaw. The seam into the windstopper material wants to pop. Pull them on ever to tight or without the finger loop and they'll quickly break down.

I bought these after trying them on and thinking "wow, these fit like a glove is supposed to!" Turns out they just don't keep my hands very warm (obvious main function). They seem to guard against wind as advertised, but even around 40-50F they don't keep my hands warm nearly as well as other similarly thin gloves I've used.

These are just barely okay gloves. I have a ton of gear from Arcteryx, but these are not like the rest of their awesome products. The inner seams are uncomfortable and there is a very narrow range of outdoor temperature that these are good for. They do not stop wind bur merely slow it a bit. Finally they fit very very very tight. I have the XL and these are tough to get on.

Il a trop de matire excdente des coutures l'intrieur. Le confort est moyen, on sens les coutures...

I own a couple of Arcteryx gloves and the venta is my most used one for daily activities. I own both a black and forage color way in M. Weirdly enough the Black sizing is awkward and feels like large in the finger and thumb area and the webbing between them feels short. The forage color way feels more fitted and accurate on what an M sizing should be. durability is also average. The stretch part will begin to fray after multiple use. It's an okay glove at most. If you really want this glove, try on in store with some in the same size to compare.

I bought these as a cycling glove with the thought cycling and cross country skiing are similar high output activities. Cycled to work this morning and the temperature was plus 2C. Hands absolutely frozen the end. Not sure these would be useful for cross country skiing.

These gloves only block the wind. They have very limited warmth. The wrists are too short. They fit very well and the construction is excellent like all Arc'teryx products but not at all warm.

Like many here, I really wanted to like these gloves. The fit was good and they seem ideal for the alpine conditions we get here on the BC coast. Great use of Gortex, the conductive pads to operate your devices and just fine for temperatures down to about -10, as long as you are wearing warm liners as well. But I really wish I had taken the time to read through all of the reviews posted here. Like many others, I have the same issue with cuff fabric becoming detached from the glove. This isn't with heavy or moderate use, this is with light use - I've worn these gloves maybe 25 times. I don't know if it is simply a bad design expecting the cuff to be fastened this way or simply poor workmanship. Either way, I regret buying these gloves - it was an expensive mistake. I can honestly say that this is the first Arc'tryx product to really let me down and am being generous with a two star rating just because it didn't fall apart immediately. I filed my product service report and will update this review with my experiences.

Use these gloves primarily for running/hiking and Ski Touring/Cross Country Skiing. These are comfortable and well fitting, and allow for great dexterity, phone use, etc. However they are not at all durable. Only two seasons in and the finger pads are worn and fabric ripping at the wrist Would also not characterize these as "Highly Weather Resistant". Wind is OK but get wet and hold water easily. After climbing in rain they were soaked and could be rung out.

To preface my review, let me just say these gloves look amazing out of the box. Clean design, cool color, fits very well. I bought a medium and have enough room to fit an additional liner glove underneath or alone. Because of this I give 2 stars and not 1. My problems are with the design of the tips on the glove. It is made of some leather (maybe something else) that stays wet. Maybe this is just something you have to live with if you get gloves that work with touchscreens but be careful if you plan to use these in wet cold conditions where you might even break a sweat. I recently took these out on a multi-day trip to do some cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. After ~30 minutes of wearing them, I noticed the tip of my fingers were starting to get cold. The hand and fingers were dry and warm, but the finger tips were starting to get numb. After another ~30 minutes, it was unbearable and had to stop to put my hands in my jacket to let them warm up. Problem was that the hand is warm, but only the tips are cold. It was then that I noticed that this was due to the tips staying wet and starting to freeze (it actually felt stiff). Unfortunately, this would suggest to me that the gloves should not be advertised as "high output ... in cold weather". Maybe low output in dry cold weather is more accurate.

After a year in the saddle of occasional use am very disappointed in the overall durability of these gloves. The finger pads shred, the stretch does not last at wrist, the seams are torn in multiple places. The windproof is really nice to have, but after only 35 days of use skiing, hiking, biking and paddling am inclined to go to hardware store and find something more durable for 1/4 the price. Am not inclined to send them in for repair, am rather recommending a more solid product desighn. Thanks anyway guys

I've been wearing these gloves for years. The touch pads on the fingers wear out way too quickly. I've had them replaced under warranty several times. I got a new pair a few weeks ago and the material on the fingers started to wear away after less than a week. This product is disappointing. Arcteryx should do better.

Bonjour J'ai achet ces gants, en aout 2018, nous sommes en mars, et ils sont finis .... Les extrmits des doigts des deux mains sont craquels et fendus. Laurent Fey Qubec, QC

I have used the gloves for three months.The glove is warm and the wind stopper fabric works well. The reinforcement on the fingertips and on the palm is strong enough. But the touch screen fabric used on thumb and forefinger starts peeling off. The stretch panels on the cuffs is not strong enough for wear and tear from the ski pole straps. There is already a hole in one of the cuffs . Arc teryx is usually high quality fit and materials. You get what you pay for, but not this time. The durability of the materials in stretch panels on the cuffs and touch screen thumb and forefinger tips is low quality. I expect better from you.

I owned these gloves for a while but I couldn't find a suitable temperature range to use them in. They're very lightly insulated. However, the largest problem I had with them is that the seams are not sealed. When I rode my bike I could feel wind entering through them which rendered the gore wind stopper material somewhat useless. I can't recommend them on this alone unfortunately. I own a lot of arcteryx but I can't recommend this one.

Generally satisfied with fit and wind/rain resistance. But very dissapointed that they fell apart after only been used for walking back and forth to work for two months.
