The Heat Company Heat 2 Softshell gloves
Price £61/$75
Website: theheatcompany.com
Founded in the Austrian Alps in 1994, The Heat Company produces cold-weather gear for outdoor enthusiasts, including gloves, warmers and insoles. The Heat 2 Softshell gloves are a combination of fingerless gloves and mittens, with their flip-tops making them ideal for those chilly but not extremely cold, winter days that we are familiar with in the UK.
The gloves feature a wind and water-resistant outer layer, a goatskin palm and a soft fleece lining. There’s also a pocket inside the mitten cap that’s designed to fit a hand warmer, helping your fingers stay toasty after they have been out in the cold. The gloves also have a long knitted cuff to keep your wrists warm, but they will need to be pulled up under your coat sleeves to prevent them from slipping down your hands.
