Our design team created this pair of thick fleece gloves to protect kids hands from the cold while they're hiking.
We carry out thermal tests based on skin temperature taken from the finger, and capture the thermal comfort feeling from the child depending on the glove worn and the outdoor temperature. This is based on skiing and hiking activity.The temperature range is calculated to give 70% of users a comfortable thermal feeling.
Fleece is designed to trap air thanks to the volume created by its texture; this air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm. It is the brushing of the knit fabric that traps the air.
In the same way you wear several layers of clothing when hiking, you can wear liner gloves under your gloves that will act as a thermal base layer. This multi-layer system lets several layers of air to form around your hands, efficiently insulating them from the cold!Remember to wear large enough gloves to avoid your fingers being constricted. Compression reduces blood circulation that could make your hands colder.
When active, the body generates heat which is preserved thanks to the thermal insulation of your clothing. If the clothing is inadequate, your body cools and the blood flow to the hands and feet drops in order to keep your upper body warm. Your outfit therefore has a role to play in keeping your hands as warm as possible.If youre unsure about size, it is always better to choose a pair of gloves that are slightly too big than too small.
If this happens then dry them in a dry place but avoid placing them on a heat source. This could damage the fibre and they could lose their shape!
Dyeing textiles uses lots of water, chemical products and energy. However, we enjoy wearing colour. To reduce this impact, we use the Dope Dyed technique where powder colour pigments are added when the yarn is produced (and not by soaking it in dye baths as is usually the case). This reduces consumption and the discharge of waste water from colouring our fabrics.
Keep childrens hands cosy while hiking with our fleece gloves. Designed for warmth breathability and comfort these gloves feature palm reinforcements.
Comfort temperature between 0 and 5C240 g/sqm density fleece
Silicone grips and reinforcements on the palm and fingers for easier grip
Touchscreen-compatible thumb and index finger
The polyester mesh lets water vapour escape
Thanks to their fleece material, these gloves dry quickly in the open air
