Winter Glove recommendations?

[1Bee]

I had a very melancholy, anxious kind of weekend and part of that, I know, is because I haven't been on the plot much lately.

One of my problems is that my hands seem to get much colder much quicker than they used to (that makes me sound way too old) and they get very painful. I always garden with gloves, but the usual elasticated, rubbery grippy ones just don't cut it in the winter.

What are your favourites for winter wear, please? Ta.

I am old and rather decrepit so bought a pair of (black) parachute silk gloves from an outdoor pursuits /climbing shop. They are very tough but also very thin so easily fit under my usual green gloves which look rather like these https://tinyurl.com/ydc4o2ax.

They delay getting numb fingers..Cost me about £10 7 years ago - last well.

I got a pair of these for Xmas and they're excellent

I don't wear gloves much in the summer but during winter/ doing the winter clear up and when I need to prune shrubs etc I always wear sturdy gloves.
I always go for the same ones, they eventually wear through the fingers so I have a few on the go at the same time. I pay about £12. Town and country

You could try a pair of cotton ones underneath so one have the warmth of one and the protection of the other?

for illustration purposes others are available https://www.vsafety.co.uk/polyco-ser...on-gloves.html under https://www.vsafety.co.uk/polyco-mat...t-level-1.html

Thanks guys.

Cheap thin fleece gloves under the usual rubbery ones work well for me.

I use Showa 451 Thermo Griphttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Showa-Therm...sulated+gloves

If you look on Amazon there are various handwarmers available. 50 years ago I had one that ran on charcoal sticks, which was very good when fishing.

Same here... I get cheapo fleecy ones from Primarni who actually last surprisingly well, under any gloves that are water tight.

If it gets really, really cold, I'd re-use an old fluffy pyjamas to sow gloves to wear underneath, again, often found in Primarni. That stuff can keep a penguin at the south pole warm

I'm another who like Town and country gloves there sizes actually fit my small hands.

I use one of these

Because I have Raynaud's I don't find any gloves really do the job.

We bought these:

Figured if they're good for a scaffolder they'll be good enough for us. They're quite a nice fit so have the feel necessary and are quite warm (and cheap to boot!).

I find my hands keep warmer for longer if the rest of me is toasty too. If it’s really clod I like to slip a hot water bottle between my first and second jumper on cold days - tuck both pullovers into belted trousers to keep HWB in place. Not a flattering look, but cosy ;-)

That's why I use them! I have small hands and I hate gloves with huge fingers!!

I would suggest you try mitts as your hands will be warmer if your fingers are in contact with one another
