WARMTH OF THE GLOVES

All our gloves are laboratory tested using a “thermal hand”. The minimum temperature ratings (recommended and limit) are based on a study carried out on a panel of 23 testers exposed to temperatures ranging from 5°C to -20°C and a wind of 10 km/h while walking.
For these gloves:
– Recommended temperature: 0°C.
– Lower temperature limit: -5°C.

DEXTERITY OF THE GLOVES

The entire palm is made from full-grain cow leather for incredible flexibility and dexterity.
In particular, we tested how easy it is to adjust mountaineering crampons with these gloves on.

EASE OF USE OF THE GLOVES

The gloves are easier to put on thanks to the wide opening. The elasticated cuff keeps them in place.
There is a clip that can be used to pair the gloves (to keep them together for easier storage and to stop one going missing).
A sling on the middle finger allows you to hook the glove onto your harness, using a carabiner.
