Picking out a pair of waterproof winter gloves seems simple enough, but once you go out in search of the perfect pair, you may find that there\u2019s more to it than whether they\u2019ll fit your hands correctly. You\u2019ll want to pay attention to size, of course, but also material, durability, functionality, and more. Consider what you will you need them for, such as winter sports or just walks to work. You\u2019ll also want to consider how long you\u2019ll need them for. If you need them because you live in an area that always has cold winters, for example, you may want to invest in a better pair than if you just need them for one season.<\/p>\n

How to Choose the Right Pair<\/h2>\n

There are a few things to consider before you even start to seriously look for gloves. You know you want them to be warm and waterproof, but there are several other factors to consider as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Get the Right Fit<\/h3>\n

Look for gloves that are snug around your wrists. You don\u2019t want them to be tight, but fitted is good because it will help keep water and ice from creeping inside from the openings. Some will have drawstrings at the openings to ensure the best fit possible. Also consider how\u00a0long\u00a0you want them to be.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Consider the Liner<\/h3>\n

Consider the level of activity you\u2019ll be doing and evaluate what you\u2019ll need in a liner. Do your gloves need to be breathable? Will you sweat? If you\u2019ll be doing a lot of physical activity with the gloves on your hands, you\u2019ll probably want to pay special attention to the type of liner. The waterproof outside is important, but something that also wicks away moisture inside and allows the sweat to escape will be ideal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Select the Right Type<\/h3>\n

You\u2019ll also need to factor in what specific activities or situations the gloves will be used for. Do they need to be for sports, daily life, or dressy? Gloves used for winter sports are, in most cases, quite different from those for daily life and dressier events. Casual, daytime gloves and gloves you can wear with a nice dress or suit are closer in design but can still vary. If you need a pair to bridge the gap between daytime and nighttime, weekdays and weekends, leather may be the best choice (though some may require you to waterproof them yourself).<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s world, an additional aspect to think about is whether your gloves need to work with a touchscreen. If it\u2019s important to have gloves that will allow you to use your smartphone and other touchscreen devices, you\u2019ll need to make sure you purchase a pair that are designed with the technology to do so.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Flexibility<\/h3>\n

Another consideration is how flexible you\u2019ll need your gloves to be and how much dexterity can you afford to lose. If you\u2019re going to need your gloves for all your day-to-day activities like driving, opening doors, carrying bags, etc., you\u2019re probably going to want a little bit of flexibility in your gloves and the ones meant for outdoor sports aren\u2019t going to be your best choice. If you\u2019re just going on a ski trip or using your gloves for other outdoor sports and activities (like shoveling snow), the extra insulation and protection from the elements will be more valuable than the ability to easily carry groceries or turn a doorknob.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Insulation<\/h3>\n

How much and what type of insulation do you need? Down is lighter and warmer than synthetic insulation, but it\u2019s more expensive and doesn\u2019t work well to keep you warm if it does happen to get wet despite being paired with a waterproof exterior.<\/p>\n

Once you have an idea of what you need, you can begin to look for the best fit. In some cases, you may have to sacrifice one feature for another, but there are styles out there for any activity that will keep your hands warm and dry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Waterproof Winter Glove Options<\/h2>\n

Some gloves are pretty versatile while others are best for certain activities or really ideal for day-to-day life. Most will fall within a similar price range (around $100.00, plus or minus about $20.00), though there are some inexpensive and even more expensive outliers on the market as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
