I was after a pair of quality Snowboard Gloves and after doing some research I finally found one that suit my needs. I wanted a leather one with gore-text for a reasonable price. I was already using a more basic model from Dakine and knew they were quite good.
Last week I found this online shop Torpedo7 which is based in NZ and ships to Australia. I was a bit hesitant because I hadn't heard about before, but decided to give it a go. My parcel just arrived and I am quite happy with the purchase.
** Just a heads up on the size => I read a lot of reviews saying to size up and indeed I got a LARGE one instead of the usual MEDIUM and it fits perfectly. I think if I had ordered a Medium I would have regretted **
