Cheapest 🎉 Forclaz Trek 500, Merino Wool Hiking Liner Gloves, Adult 😉

Need a liner glove? Made from 86% wool, this liner glove will give you an additional 5°F of warmth.
What’s more, its thumb and index finger are touchscreen-compatible.

Designed by seasoned backpackers, this merino wool liner glove provides extra warmth in cold weather. It can also be worn on its own in cool season.

A suitable outfit

When physically active, the body produces heat. This is preserved via the thermal insulation of the outfit. If your clothing is unsuitable, the body will get colder and blood flow to the hands will drop in order to retain heat in the central core. Gloves and clothing must be suitable to keep hands at a comfortable temperature.
If you’re unsure about the size, it’s always better to opt for a pair of hiking gloves that are slightly too big than too small.

Warmth

This liner glove, worn under a hiking glove, provides you with an additional 5°F of warmth.
This corresponds to the ambient temperature at which 100% of testers felt comfortable.
For better protection, we recommend that you wear gloves over the liner glove.

How is the temperature rating measured?

All our gloves are laboratory-tested using a thermal hand to determine their level of insulation and minimum temperature rating. The temperature ratings (normal and limit) come from a study carried out with a test panel of 23 walkers exposed to temperatures ranging from 41°F to -4°F and 6 mph winds. These temperatures are only valid when walking.

Dexterity of gloves

The dexterity of a glove is its ability to manipulate objects. Our gloves have been scored in the laboratory on a scale of 1 to 5. The closer the dexterity rating of the glove is to 5, the more you can handle things with the gloves as if they were off. In particular, we tested how easy it is to get a jacket on and open it.

Origin of the wool

We only use wool from Merino sheep bred on farms in South Africa that do not practice mulesing.

We decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino) to guarantee respect for animal welfare and the environment.
We have full traceability, which allows us to guarantee the origin of the wool.

Odor control

Wool from Merino sheep naturally controls the spread of bacteria that cause bad smells. It can therefore be worn
several days in a row, which means you can take less clothes when backpacking!

How to wash your merino wool liner gloves

We recommend that you machine wash your merino wool liner gloves at 86°F on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent.

Dry flat. NEVER tumble dry.
