Extremities Contact Power Liner Gloves

These gloves feel thin, light and stretchy. They fit snugly around your hand, so you keep good feel in your fingers. Thanks to the grip palm you easily grab a flask, gel or poles, and you use your phone or watch with the fingertips.

They work best in cool, dry weather. Think of a crisp morning run in the Amsterdamse Bos, a dry autumn trail on the Veluwe or the first cold kilometres of a long run. Once you've warmed up after fifteen minutes you notice the difference: your hands stay warm but don't get sweaty like in thick gloves. When it gets colder, pull a mitt or waterproof glove over them.

Unsure? Look at the weather you run in. These gloves aren't waterproof and offer little insulation, so in rain or frost your hands get cold quickly. If you often run in cold, wet weather, choose the Contact Insulated Waterproof or the Paradox Waterproof. For cool, dry days and as a base under another glove, these are ideal.

In short: thin, light gloves for cool days and as an inner layer.
