These gloves are very well-crafted


I bought these at the beginning of November mostly for biking, but I've also worn them while running.

My hands feel fine when the temperature is about 30 to 50 degrees out. (I don't wear gloves when it's warmer than that). My hands don't feel sweaty or clammy even when I am raging forth like a wild man-beast, so their claims of moisture transfer are legitimate. I've worn them in the rain a few times in the evening, and they weren't completely dry for my commute to work the next day. However, they do seem to air-dry in about 24 hours.

When the temperature is around 20 to 30 degrees, they are sufficient but not optimal. My fingers don't go numb, but they are cold until I have exerted myself enough to warm up. Undoubtedly, I will need a warmer glove or mitten once it gets colder out.

These gloves are very well-crafted. I haven't noticed any loose threads, they are comfortable, and have not shown any type of wear after a month of wearing them daily. My friend bought a pair of similar gloves made by Under Armour, and the grippy surface on the palms began to wear off within the first week. Furthermore, they are comfortable and allow a lot of dexterity. I don't have to take them off to get keys out of my pocket or adjust something on my bike.

I did two one hour-plus long runs with these gloves under fairly cold conditions (it was in the low to mid 40's) and my hands were very comfortable. They are also thin enough for you to manipulate a smartphone without the need to take them off. The other nice thing about these gloves is that they are pretty bright, so cars will take note of you on the side of the road as you run. Satisfied customer.

These bike gloves say thermal, but they are not really all that warm. Once i get warmed up from biking, then my hands warm up. But for that first 5-10 minutes outside my hands are pretty cold. However, they are still better than nothing, and the build quality is great.

How To Keep Warm While Skiing


Keep Warm While Skiing

When you are up the mountain enjoying some skiing you will want to make sure that you can and will keep warm. There are a number of things to do. This hub has some good tips on how to keep warm while skiing.

How To Keep Warm While Skiing

You do not want to be skimping on layers. If you wipe out while skiing you will be thankful of wearing plenty of layers. If you wipe-out, your exterior layer, will get wet quickly, and you'll want to stay as dry as possible.

Flannel vests or jackets are not a good idea. Because off the way the snow and water tends to stick to flannel jackets or vests you find that they become wet and heavy. This is obviously not good while skiing.

Hand and foot warmers are also a good way to keep warm. You can buy these at any outdoor or supermarket store at very low cost. If you are planning to be outside for long periods these really make a difference. Just stick them in your gloves or boots.

You want to make sure that you wear good gloves and coats.
