Description

These gloves feel properly warm, but thanks to the stretchy fabric they fit snugly and comfortably around your hand. You keep good feel in your fingers, so you can easily open a zip, grab a gel or hold poles. The grip palm holds on in the rain too, and you can use your phone or watch with thumb and index finger.

They work best when it's cold and wet at the same time. Think of a wintry rain run on the Veluwe, a trail in the Ardennes in wet snow or a mountain trip where it cools down a lot higher up. After an hour in rain and wind you notice the difference: your hands stay warm and dry, where thin gloves have long been cold and soaked. If it gets really extreme, wear them as an inner glove under a mitt.

Unsure? Look at how cold you get. This is the warmest glove in this line, so in mild temperatures or at a high pace your hands quickly get too warm. If you want a lighter glove that packs small and that you carry just in case, the Paradox Waterproof fits better. If your hands always get cold in winter, this is the better choice.

In short: the warmest waterproof running glove for cold, wet days.

Why Extremities?

Cold fingers, a wet hat or soaked socks: in winter it's often your hands, head and feet that give up first on the trail. That's exactly why we carry Extremities at Trail.NL.

This British brand has been making gloves, hats, neck gaiters and socks for your extremities for over forty years. From thin liners for crisp mornings to waterproof socks and mitts for wet, cold days in the hills.

For us, Extremities is above all a specialist: not a brand that does a bit of everything, but gear that keeps you warm and dry where it matters most.

Frequently asked questions

Are they waterproof?

Yes. The PFC-free X-Dry Stretch insert has a 10,000 mm hydrostatic head and is breathable.

How warm are they?

They have 120 g of insulation, making them a lot warmer than the uninsulated Contact Power Liner. In extreme cold, wear a mitt over them.

Can you use your phone with them?

Yes, the fingertips are touchscreen compatible, so you don't need to take them off.

What's the difference with the Paradox Waterproof Gloves?

The Contact fits tighter, stretches with you and has a silicone grip on the palm. The Paradox is lighter and packs smaller.
