"On the outside is a wind- and wear-resistant knitted nylon/spandex/lycra layer, and on the inside is a soft, moisture-wicking acrylic/polyester layer. Lastly, a waterproof and breathable Artex membrane is sandwiched between, keeping your hands dry no matter what. This creates a thin yet warm glove that's ideal for milder winters. I've worn these down to about 23°F in hail and winds hitting 50 miles per hour, and my hands were warm enough."
"Finding waterproof gloves that have touchscreen capability and that fit me well has been quite an odyssey. I'm not sure if it's just me and my non-standard hands (big hands with short fingers: my middle fingers are a ring size US 18 -- as big as they get), but I find that most of the time, if I can get my hands into a glove, the fingers always seem to be about an inch or so too long."
Secondary Raynaud's syndrome reduces blood flow to extremities, increasing risk of cold injury, so warm socks and gloves became essential. Finding waterproof, touchscreen-capable gloves that fit large hands with short fingers was difficult; many gloves have fingers about an inch too long, making touchscreen operation fiddly. Cross Point Gear Sports gloves feature a triple-layer construction: an outer wind- and wear-resistant knitted nylon/spandex/lycra layer, a soft moisture-wicking acrylic/polyester inner layer, and a waterproof, breathable Artex membrane. These gloves are thin but warm to about 23°F in harsh wind and hail, dry quickly, and fit well. A brief experiment with a solid-state portable battery made lithium-ion feel outdated.
