Extremities Paradox Waterproof Gloves

These gloves feel light and supple, without the bulky feel of winter gloves. The insulation keeps your hands warm, even when it gets damp. Thanks to the grippy palm, you can hold poles or a flask securely, and operate your phone or watch with your fingertips.

They come into their own best when cold and wet conditions combine. Think of a rainy winter run in the Ardennes, a trek in the Alps with sleet, or a cold, drizzly morning on the Veluwe. After an hour in the rain, you notice the difference: where ordinary gloves get soaked and cold, your hands stay dry and warm inside. Because they fold up small, you can also take them with you even if you might only need them at the top of the mountain.

If in doubt, consider the temperature and your exertion level. Due to the waterproof layer, they breathe less than thin running gloves, so in mild weather and at a high pace, your hands will get sweaty faster. In severe frost or when standing still for long periods, thicker mittens are warmer. If you often run in cold and wet weather, these are gloves you won't easily leave at home.

In short: lightweight, waterproof gloves for cold and wet days.
