How is the operating temperature measured?
Our gloves are laboratory-tested using a thermal hand. Minimum temperatures of use (recommended and limits) are based on a study carried out on a panel of 23 testers in a walking situation exposed to temperatures ranging from 5°C to -20°C and a wind speed of 10 km/h. These temperatures are valid only in a walking situation. These temperatures apply to walking conditions only.
MT500 fleece gloves are rated 1 out of 5 for warmth.
Recommended temperature: 5°C
Temperature limit: 0°C
How do you protect your hands from the cold?
By applying the principle of layering, you can optimize the insulation of your hands. By wearing under-gloves in addition to gloves, several air spaces are created around your hands, effectively insulating them from the cold. To achieve this, it's important to choose gloves that are large enough to prevent your fingers from being compressed. Compression slows down blood circulation in the fingers, which prevents them from keeping warm.
