"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. I've worn these down to about 23°F in hail and winds hitting 50 miles per hour, and my hands were warm enough."
"Socks are easy, but gloves -- less so. 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. Not only does this look weird, but it makes operating touchscreens fiddly at best."
Secondary Raynaud's syndrome reduces blood flow to the hands and feet, increasing injury risk from cold exposure. Warm socks and gloves are essential daily gear. Finding waterproof gloves that combine touchscreen compatibility and a good fit for large hands with short fingers proved difficult; many gloves have excessively long fingers that hinder touchscreen use. Cross Point Gear Sports gloves meet the needs: waterproof, warm, touchscreen-compatible, and well-fitted. The gloves use a triple-layer construction: wind- and wear-resistant knitted nylon/spandex/lycra outer, soft moisture-wicking acrylic/polyester inner, and a waterproof breathable Artex membrane sandwiched between. The thin gloves performed to about 23°F in high winds and hail and dry quickly.
