Improvements

The MT 500 Liner Gloves have been continuously improved, thanks mainly to customer feedback. The improved comfort of these liner gloves gives better support while hiking, thanks to your feedback. It’s also thanks to your feedback that the elastic section at the wrist has been extended for greater comfort and the touchscreen-compatible section has been redesigned to be more effective.

How to effectively protect your hands from the cold

Optimize insulation by applying the layering principle. Wearing liner gloves in addition to gloves creates several air pockets that effectively insulate your hands from the cold. The gloves must be big enough not to compress your fingers. This is because compression slows down blood flow in the fingers, which prevents them from staying warm.

How to keep your hands warm with the right clothing.

When active, the body generates heat that is preserved by your clothing’s thermal insulation. If clothing is inadequate, your body cools and circulation to your hands and feet drops to keep your upper body warm. Your clothing therefore plays a role in keeping your hands warm.

What does the dexterity of a glove refer to?

A glove’s dexterity corresponds to its ability to handle objects with ease. Our liner gloves have been given a score from 1 to 5 in a laboratory study. The closer the score is to 5, the easier it is to handle objects as though you were not wearing gloves. The dexterity of these liner gloves has been rated 5/5. In particular, tests were done to measure how easily it is to get a jacket on and handle the zipper while wearing these liner gloves.

Recommended use

Despite its many benefits, silk is delicate. That’s why we recommend you use this product as liner gloves, worn under a pair of gloves. Avoid wearing them alone to prevent premature wear, especially during sports involving intensive use of poles such as ski touring, cross-country skiing, or power walking.

Warning!

These gloves do not protect against the spread of viruses or microbes.
