How will these liner gloves keep my kids’ hands warm?

We carry out thermal tests based on skin temperature taken from the finger, and capture the thermal comfort feeling from the child depending on the glove worn and the outdoor temperature. The temperature range is calculated to give 70% of users a comfortable thermal feeling.

How to properly protect your hands from the cold

By applying the layering principle, you can optimise the insulation of your hands. Consequently, by wearing liner gloves in addition to gloves, several air gaps are created around your hands, which provide effective insulation from the cold.

How to keep your hands warm with the right clothing

When active, the body generates heat which is preserved thanks to the thermal insulation of your clothing. If the clothing is inadequate, your body cools and the blood flow to the hands and feet drops in order to keep your upper body warm. Your outfit therefore has a role to play in keeping your hands as warm as possible. If you’re unsure about size, it is always better to choose a pair of gloves that are slightly too big than too small.

They provide up to 3°C extra warmth when worn under gloves. As silk is fragile, we recommend you use this product as liner gloves only.
