Designed to insulate your fingers in breezy conditions while hiking, running, backpacking and Nordic skiing, the Outdoor Research Gripper Gloves for Women feature warm and windproof WINDSTOPPER fleece insulation backed with rugged Suregrip palm reinforcements for abrasion resistance. The lightweight and compressible construction make the Outdoor Research Gripper Gloves a superb choice for tight storage situations, especially if you're limited to the diminutive confines of a backpack or kayak (consider the combined weight and required space of windproof glove shells and fleece liners and you'll see what we mean). A tapered wrist configuration minimizes heat loss by keeping warm air trapped inside the gloves.
Very well-made with thoughtful features
I haven't tested the WINDSTOPPER effectiveness, but can say that the gloves are very nicely finished (as I've found most OR products to be). I love the gripper surface and the tapered wrist, which will fit under my cuffs. Reflective accents would be nice. Not shown: fairly large grosgrain loops for hanging, pulling on or attaching. Made in China.
