TECHNICAL INFORMATION

How will this under-glove keep my child's hands warm?

We carry out thermal tests based on skin temperature measurements on the finger, and collect the child's sensation of thermal comfort according to the glove worn and the outside temperature.
The temperature range is calculated such that 70% of users have a comfortable thermal sensation.

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 does not help to keep them warm.

How can you keep your hands warm with the right clothing?

Your active body generates heat, which is conserved by the thermal insulation provided by your clothing. If your clothing is unsuitable, your body cools down and blood circulation to your extremities (including your hands) is reduced, keeping your chest warm. Your clothing can therefore play a role in keeping your hands as warm as possible.
If in doubt, it's always better to opt for a pair of gloves that's a little larger than too small.

Directions for use

Silk is a natural fiber with many advantages, but it is fragile. That's why we recommend using this model as under-gloves, worn with a pair of gloves on top.
Avoid wearing them on their own, like gloves, to avoid premature wear, especially during sports involving intensive use of poles such as ski touring, cross-country skiing or sport walking.

Did your under-gloves get caught in the rain?

In this case, dry them in a dry place, but avoid placing them on a heat source. This could damage the fiber and deform them!
