Teen Girls Gloves and Mittens

For over 75 years, Obermeyer has been making performance snow gear for young riders since 1947, the kind that holds up on real mountain days.

Warmth and Weather Protection That Keeps Up With Her

Cold fingers end ski days early. We built two options specifically for this: the Teen's Lava Glove and the Teen's Molten Mitten, each built for actual mountain conditions.

The Teen's Lava Glove is the go-to for riders who want full dexterity on the hill. Pole handling, goggle adjustments, zipper pulls, all of it stays manageable with a glove that moves with her. If she's carving groomers all day or hitting terrain park features, the glove format keeps up with the pace.

The Teen's Molten Mitten is the warmth-first call. On colder days or for riders who tend to run cold, mittens win because fingers share heat instead of sitting in individual insulated pockets. It's the right call for long lift rides and cold-snap days at the resort.

Gloves vs. Mittens: Helping Her Choose the Right Fit

The Teen's Lava Glove fits riders who want all-day versatility and the kind of hand freedom that makes technical skiing easier. If she's adjusting gear on the fly, snapping into bindings, or just prefers a fitted feel, the glove is the right call.

The Teen's Molten Mitten is the better pick for colder resort days, longer outdoor sessions, or any rider who prioritizes staying warm over fine motor control. It's also a solid pick for younger teens or kids who aren't just skiing: snowball fights, sledding, general outdoor time.

Think about the conditions she typically skis in and how she moves on the mountain, and the right one should be obvious.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best teen girls gloves and mittens for skiing? +

Obermeyer's Teen's Lava Glove and Teen's Molten Mitten are both designed for cold-weather snow sports with insulation and waterproof construction. The mitten offers warmer coverage, while the glove is better suited for activities requiring more dexterity on the slopes.

Are mittens or gloves warmer for teenage girls in the snow? +

Mittens are typically warmer because fingers share heat in a single compartment rather than being individually insulated. The Teen's Molten Mitten is built for exactly this reason, making it a strong choice for colder conditions or longer days outdoors.

What features should I look for in ski gloves for teen girls? +

Waterproofing, insulation, and a secure wrist closure are the most important features to keep hands dry and warm during winter activities. The Teen's Lava Glove includes these elements in a fit sized specifically for teens rather than adults or young children.

How do I choose the right size gloves for a teenager? +

Most youth ski glove sizing is based on hand circumference or age range, and brands typically provide a size chart to help narrow down the fit. Obermeyer sizes its teen girls gloves and mittens to fit the proportions of older kids rather than defaulting to adult small sizing.
