The history of Phoenix dates back many years with a solid grounding in manufacturing a variety of performance snowsports products.
In recent times we have concentrated all of our efforts on producing what is often considered to be one of the most vital parts of snowsports equipment – HANDWEAR!
The outcome of this is that we now have a collection of Gloves and Mitts, which combine comfort, wearability, durability and high technical performance but don’t be fooled by the complicated jargon because at the heart of Phoenix is fun.
Far too often companies forget that the reason why snowsports enthusiasts are enthusiasts is because of the fun factor they get from their chosen sport. It is for this reason we have spent so long perfecting the art of glove making using only the best branded components to ensure that your Phoenix gloves will not become sweaty and uncomfortable or begin to leak and give you painful frost bite and end up ruining what was supposed to be a fun day in the snow.
Now for the proof…
At Phoenix we know that you are not silly enough to believe everything we tell you however we also know that you know what is good and bad in terms of snowsports equipment. This is why you will find listed below the components we use to produce our collection: these names speak for themselves and if you know your stuff you will know that if you combine these components with detailed research and design you will get a high performance and durable piece of gear.
