What are pogies?

Pogies help keep the cold bite of wind and rain off your hands while allowing easy access to your trekking poles or other items. Great for pairing with a light glove for springtime showers.

Keeping your hands perfectly dry is not the intention of our Pogies, and if you've tried rain mitts before, you've probably found that they wet out after awhile anyway. Instead, our pogies offer a simple, lightweight solution to prevent heat loss from fresh rain wicking away your body heat. The open bottoms keep clamminess down in warmer weather. They also do a good job of blocking wind, and we often find ourselves using them solely as wind mitts on brisk days. The open bottoms allow you to easily use your trekking poles or to quickly expose your hands for more intricate tasks like getting to a snack or tying a shoe.

To use, put your hand through the cinched opening. Then pull the one-handed cinch with your other hand to secure the opening around your wrist. Your trekking pole handle slips through the other opening. To expose your hands temporarily, pull the opening back over your hand.

Made in the USA from imported fabric.

Product Availability

In most cases, items that are available to add to your cart are in-stock and ready to ship. Please refer to the shipping tab or page for expected fulfillment times.
Some items may be marked as "Avalable to backorder," "Made to order," and/or show a lead time. In these cases refer to the information on the product page for expected fulfillment times.
For items that are sold out, please refer to the production calendar and the Q & A below for more information.

Q: When can I expect the item I'm interested in to become available?

A: For most items, please refer to the production calendar at the bottom of this page. This calendar shows when we expect to work on more substantial products. For some accessory products, production may not always be scheduled in advance and availability may be unpredictable.

FYI: If you do not see the item that you are interested in, then we do not know when it may become available (We're often not scheduled far out in advance and don't have a private schedule beyond what's shown!).

Q: Can I pre-order, back-order, or reserve an item?

A: We don't typically reserve products, however there are some exceptions to this. For example, if someone orders an in-stock Cirriform and wants to also order an out-of-stock Bug Shelter for it, if the Bug Shelter is expected within a couple weeks, we'll usually make arrangements to reserve one of the Bug Shelters and hold the order so shipping may be combined.

On occasion, select products may be available to back-order or pre-order. When this happens, that status will be shown on the product page. If you're signed up for the stock notification, you will receive a notice that the item is available to back/pre-order.

Q: Can you let me know when the item becomes available?

A: Yes. On the product page, enter your email address in the space provided to be automatically notified when inventory becomes available. If you don't see where you can do this, please let me know; sometimes there's a fluke in the settings and the field doesn't show. Please note that the email notification could get filtered out as spam. You can try to 'whitelist' info@yamamountaingear.com to make sure the email comes through.

NOTES ON USING THE CALENDAR

- For products shown on the calendar, you can typically expect the item to be made available towards the end, or soon after the period shown on the calendar. Sometimes, however, some items may be listed earlier in the period. For example, if the calendar shows that I'm working on tapered tarps, certain sizes may become available earlier within the period with other sizes coming later.

- Items that specify "ongoing production" mean that we are continually working on these items and doing our best to maintain inventory. If the item or a particular size is sold out, you can expect it to likely become available soon.

Just tried them on. Haven't gotten to use them yet but they loo like they will work well! Thanks!

I recently purchased the YAMA Pogies and have used them on four long winter hikes with temperatures ranging from -2 to 37. They worked well paired with my merino wool mid-weight gloves. All four times I used them to protect my hands from the bitter wind. My hands felt warmer with them on. I admit, at -2 my hands were somewhat cold and I wished I had the insulated Pogies. I have not used them in the rain (which is why I did not give 5 stars). The pogies are designed to be used with trekking poles and they did the job! I appreciate they are ultralight and fit in a small pocket. Pogies will be in my backpack when I hit the trails!

Kristine S.

Worked wonderfully to keep the rain (and snow) off hands while using hiking poles. Easy to pull back to access my hands and easy to pull back in place. Definitely recommend

I wish I'd bought these years ago. Practical solution for testy weather. Sub zero windchill... No problem, driving rain, hail, snow... No Problem. They kept my hands comfortable and allowed me to keep my hand dexterity when using a compass, phone etc. Combined with a thin glove liner or my omm core Mitts and the Leki race poles they are a joy to use. Even when I did get my mitts wet by handling wet straps or clumsiness. They soon dried out in the micro climate that the pogies create when pushing on. Especially with the core Mitts that help to regulate hand and body temperature. Quick exposure of the mitts and unwanted heat was dumped

After my EXPENSIVE Zpacks rain mitts shredded up during a February AT thru hike start, I swore off rain mitts going forward. I know the quality of Yama products and am very happy with their rain Kilt and thought I would try the pogies. I bought them for winter and shoulder season when my hands get cold when raining. I have only used them once so far and was very happy with he design, the fact my hands were kept warm, and light enough to always keep on hand. They work alone and with fleece mitts.

Have not had them out on trail but they look well made and they should keep the hard rains off my hands while using trekking poles .

Kyle H.

My first experience with YMG was extremely positive. All products ordered were built well and arrived quickly. Gen even dropped a handwritten note and a sweet YAMA Gear decal! I will be recommending YAMA products to my friends and trail folk I encounter.

Brandon E.

I have had the chance to use the pogies in a couple of rainy hikes and they have preformed great! I love that I can just pop my hands out of them quickly to do a task at hand. Great product!!!!

Gil L.

These are perfect in their simplicity! Perfect for hiking in the PNW. Can wear gloves appropriate for various temps. Thanks for a great product! Wish I had these years ago! they are a mainstay now.

Only one outing so far. The pogies seem to be able to provide protection from wind, rain and snow while being able to be an easy in, easy out affair. I like wearing liner gloves, but anything I layer over tends to overheat as I hike. The pogies offer protection and ventilation. What is not working for me is that when I take my hands off to carry out tasks I run the risk of losing the pogies. Twice they almost came out of the pole as I put the poles down to do something else. The wind wants to blow them away. A cinch closure at the bottom similar to the one at the wrist may keep them in place, but would reduce ventilation, which I really like about this system, so that wouldn't really solve the issue for me. So what I am thinking I want to try next time is sew a thin loop of ribbon about 1/2 to 1" to the pole opening on the pogie at the front and using a prusik with a mitten hook at the top of the pole shaft to hook onto the ribbon and keep the pogie connected to the pole, so as not to loose it in the wind when I take my hands off. Easy mod.

After having gotten my hands soaked, cold, and numb on the Wonderland trail last summer I was in the market for some sort of waterproof shell to go over my fleece liner gloves. I was assuming that meant mitts. When I saw the Pogies come out I thought "a-ha, that's just what I need." Cause, for me at least, the mitts seem like overkill. The Pogies on the otherhand (well, both actually!) are no big deal to slip on at the first drop of rain. They are absolutely perfect for a hike in Oregon in winter! I bust them out at the first drop. Behaviorally this is a very good thing, cause maybe it was just a drizzle, or maybe it was going to be a real downpour, but keeping my fleece liner gloves dry from the get-go was a smart move. (I still have yet to test them in the wind). They are easy to slip on and off. I have a good grip on my pole handles with no extra layers interfering. They feel good. And when you inevitably have to stop and futz you simply push your hands out of them, you do not have to take them off.

Using this on my AT thruhike this year. For a couple hours of rain these work great and allow one to quickly use their hands if needed. I would say that the large is a little oversized (I am 6'1" with pretty big hands, and the small would've been a better choice). While a little awkwardly shaped at first, they do the job and are quite nice in light showers once you get used to them. When it has rained for multiple days, these have been unable to keep my gloved hands dry (what will for such weather?), but they have managed to take the bite off the wind and keep my hands warmer than they would be without them. For the price, these are a solid purchase IMO.
