Varusteleka Merino Gloves

Good quality made-in-Finland knit gloves from super-duper material. Good as they are for a bit chilly conditions, for serious cold these do well as an insulating layer for hard shell gloves. How can they make these so cheap in Finland?

This is a no-brainer, but wool gloves are not something you want to use for anything else than light-duty, i.e. warming your hands and flashing the bus ticket. If you need durability, opt for leather. However, these do work as liners for suitable shell gloves.

Warm merino wool

Wool is super. Merino wool is even better; it does not itch, it insulates and regulates temperature better, gathers even less smells (and most smells vanish with simply airing out the gloves).

Choosing your size

Choosing your size is not a matter of absolute precision. The merino wool will stretch to accommodate your hand, if you grab a size that usually fits you.
