Arc'teryx Rope Glove
Grip the Rope. Own the Mission.
Whether you're managing a rescue, guiding in the backcountry, or spending long hours on rope systems, the Arc'teryx Rope Glove is built to handle the abuse. Designed for mountain professionals, search and rescue teams, and technical operators, this glove balances dexterity, durability, and protection where it matters most.
Constructed with Burly™ Double Weave softshell fabric, the Rope Glove delivers breathable comfort while standing up to demanding alpine conditions. The premium goat leather palm and fingers provide outstanding grip and abrasion resistance, with an additional leather overlay between the thumb and index finger to withstand the friction of rappelling, belaying, and repeated rope work.
Thoughtful details make a difference in the field. Touchscreen-compatible fingertips let you operate devices without exposing your hands to the elements, while the integrated finger-mounted clip-in loop allows you to secure the gloves to a carabiner with the fingertips facing upward, helping prevent snow and debris from collecting inside. A low-profile elastic wrist slides comfortably beneath jacket cuffs for easy layering and unrestricted movement.

Why We Love It
The best rope gloves disappear when you're working—and that's exactly what these do. They're protective without feeling bulky, durable enough for repeated rappels and belays, and dexterous enough to tie knots, adjust gear, or use your phone without constantly taking them off. If your job or hobby keeps you on the rope, these gloves deserve a spot in your kit.
