We might not want to think about it yet but winter will be here, and some of us will be skiing in that time. Even if you don’t ski though, a snug pair of ski gloves goes a long way in the cold! I have had ski gloves for several winters now and I won’t be without them. Helly Hansen have a range of gloves for women including these Alphelia gloves in the colour snow.
The Aphelia glove have 4 layers of material for keeping your hands cold in extreme and prolonged lengths of time in the cold. The outer shell fabric is waterproof but also breathable thanks to the Helly Tech professional layer underneath which wicks away moisture whilst exercising. Perfect for outdoor sports where you work up a sweat in winter. There’s also insulation layers underneath and then the soft lining.
To wear these gloves, I have a size Large but my hands are really little for an adult, but these are a bit snug. I would say to go up a size at least if you want lots of room or if you have long nails! The gloves come over your wrists and are elasticated, with a snap clasp to hold them together. There’s also a lead to attach them to your ski suit. Even if you don’t ski though, these gloves will keep your hand toasty warm in winter, or if you are exposed when taking the pram out, running, driving or just walking the dog, they’re a must have for about 4 months of the year!
