The characteristics of outdoor gloves

Outdoor gloves are a very important part of your equipment, especially if you are in a cold environment/climate. Gloves keep your hands warm so you don't suffer from stiff hands. Curious about the most important features of outdoor gloves?

Let's explain

Wind stopper

Some gloves have the Windstopper feature. This feature ensures that all cold and cutting winds are stopped, so that your hands stay extra warm. Gloves with a Windstopper feature often have a double fleece layer to achieve windproofness. But this absolutely does not mean that the gloves are not breathable. An example of a Windstopper glove is the Rab Storm Gloves.

GORE-TEX

Gore-Tex gloves are not only super warm, but also water and windproof. Yet the glove is also very breathable and has a high level of comfort. These types of gloves are very suitable for skiing and other cold/wet conditions and climates. An example of this is the Trekmates Chamonix GTX .

Touch Screen Compatible

Many of the gloves we offer will still allow you to use your touchscreens. This is made possible by a small amount of Silver Coating in the fingertip of the glove. The Silver Coating has the same properties as human skin and therefore also works on touchscreens. An example is the Arc'teryx Venta gloves. Some of the brands in our range are Hestra, Trekmates and Vaude .
