Fingerless Silver Thread Gloves Top Tip

These really are fantastic gloves, proving time and time again to help people who suffer from the cold live easier come winter. Technically, these gloves use silver thread, that has the unique properties of keeping body heat in and preventing cold air from passing through,
Do They Still Retain Heat Despite Their Fingerless Design?
We understand that thin fingerless gloves don't exactly look warming, but they are. The benefit in their open fingers is to enable dexterity and sensitivity, something that other full gloves lack. As the gloves cover the palms (the most important part of your hand with regards to heat), blood circulation is kept moving and therefore warm blood will continue through to your fingertips.
What is the Benefit of Silver Thread?
These gloves contain 8% silver fibre, meaning that they keep your hands warmer while warding off the onset of Raynaud's disease. Silver thread works by reflecting 95% of body heat back into the skin, meaning that your hands stay warmer for longer. Silver thread has one of the lowest heat loss rates around, meaning that these gloves will keep your hands warmer for far longer than conventional thermal gloves.

How Much Dexterity and Sensitivity Do They Offer?
They are designed to offer superb dexterity and sensitivity with their flexible elastane and cotton lining. They couldn't offer more sensitivity with their open fingers ensuring skin to material contact when handling items. However the lining is thin too, meaning that your dexterity is not compromised even when completing highly tactile tasks such as typing.
