The gloves have a fixed polyester mesh lining, with a dedicated Micro-Polar thermal liner, while the outer is a mix of Amara material and goat leather. There’s palm reinforcement on the protection front, allied to decent knuckle guards on the opposing side, and the usual grippy bits for the pressing of screens with fingers. Coming right at you in sizes small to 3XL, a set of these would look rather fancy on you, don’t you think? Check them out here.
Furygan Escape 37.5
Price: £89.99 | Available: www.nevis.uk.com
If you’re wondering what the 37.5 part in this glove’s name is about, it is a system for removing moisture from your hands before it turns to sweat because, as Furygan points out, dispensing with it keeps you comfortable for longer.
According to official information, ‘if you need warming or cooling based on the amount of humidity next to your skin‘.
Say what now?! The 37.5 materials’ own ‘particles’ apparently catch the infrared energy generated by your hand and speeds up the evaporation process. Wow, we’re not sure if this is either genuinely a genius move on Furygan’s part, or if other gloves are similar and don’t go deep into the details, but either way it all sounds rather spiffing, doesn’t it?
Aside from that, it has all the right waterpoof/breathable and thermal linings, protective parts, touch-screen fingertips and correctly placed reinforcement within its textile and goat-leather construction, and comes in sizes small to 3XL. Take a look here.
Richa Tundra EVO
Price: £39.99 | Available: www.nevis.uk.com
Here we have an incredibly cheap set of gloves to join this fine horde, and one from a manufacturer we trust, check out Richa’s Tundra EVO.
This is more of a mid-season pair of gloves, with winter use in mind at a bit of a push, but then for less than £40 what else do you want? They’re mostly designed to be warm and very comfortable to wear yet a decent Hipora membrane does the waterproof/breathable shimmy, the drawstring closure is fully adjustable and it comes with extra padding for protection in the areas most likely to make you say ‘ouch’ if a bad thing happens.
And, that’s about it really, aside from a fluoro/black option and the fact they come in sizes extra small to 2XL. If you’re after cheap and cheerful, look no further!
