What are the Extremities Terrain Gloves?
The Extremities Terrain are your go-to gloves for cold, wet, and unpredictable days. Whether navigating a snowy trail or heading out on a drizzly morning dog walk, these gloves keep your hands warm, dry, and adventure-ready.
What are they made of?
These gloves feature an X-Dry membrane that delivers waterproof protection and breathability. Thanks to it, your hands stay dry from the outside elements while allowing moisture from sweat to escape. The membrane is also PFC-free, which is an eco-conscious choice. PFCs (perfluorinated chemicals) are often used in water-repellent treatments but can harm the environment, so a PFC-free membrane helps reduce environmental impact without compromising performance.
Nylon Outer Shell
The outer shell of the Terrain gloves is made of 100% nylon, known for its durability and abrasion resistance. This tough outer layer holds up well to the rigours of outdoor use, from scrambling over rocky terrain to bushwhacking through dense undergrowth. Nylon also dries relatively quickly and resists damage from exposure to the elements, making it ideal for adventurous conditions.
Cosy Polyester Lining
A soft polyester lining inside the gloves provides reliable warmth and next-to-skin comfort. Polyester is a popular choice for insulation due to its excellent moisture-wicking properties and ability to trap heat effectively.
Grippy and Flexible Palm with PU Reinforcement
The palm area features a polyester and polyurethane (PU) blend, combining flexibility with enhanced grip. PU adds tackiness and durability, making it easy to maintain a secure hold on walking poles, bike handlebars, or even a steaming cup of tea.
What are their features?
Touchscreen-Compatible Fingertips
These gloves come with touchscreen-compatible fingertips, allowing you to use your smartphone, GPS, or camera without taking them off. Whether navigating with a map app or snapping a summit selfie, this feature is a game-changer when temperatures drop.
Built-In Nose Wipe for Cold-Weather Comfort
A runny nose is almost guaranteed when you're out in the cold. Thankfully, these gloves have a soft nose wipe panel on the thumb. It's a subtle detail that makes a big difference, especially during long hikes, ski tours, or winter walks when tissues are buried deep in your pack.
Pull Tab
Getting gloves on and off when your hands are cold, or damp can be difficult. A pull tab gives you better leverage. Whether gearing up at the trailhead or slipping them off at a café stop, this practical addition makes the process quick and fuss-free.
Secure Wrist Tether
With integrated wrist tethers, you can take off a glove and let it hang securely from your wrist. This feature prevents the classic glove-losing mishap, saving you from frustration and chilly hands.
