The Gulo Windstopper Gloves offer excellent wind-blocking capabilities, enhanced durability with a full-palm Pittard's leather covering, and a stylish design suitable for winter commuting, though the absence of touchscreen functionality is a notable drawback.
Trekmates says:
WINDSTOPPER™ by GORE-TEX labs and Pittards WR100X real leather make a glove perfect for activities where wind protection, stretch, dexterity and breathability are needed
Our Verdict
Gulo Windstopper Gloves are thin, close-fitting gloves that work well in low but not freezing conditions. They do an excellent job of blocking out the wind, but they do not have any insulation. In freezing conditions, they can be worn with a warmer overmitt.
The gloves' most notable feature is the Pittard's leather full-palm covering, which adds great durability without sacrificing dexterity. The leather extends around the forefinger and thumb to provide additional protection if you use trekking poles.
The gloves do not have touchscreen capabilities. Given how dexterous the gloves are, it seems silly to omit this feature, as it would not have added any extra weight and would have made them more versatile.
The gloves look stylish and will blend in seamlessly with your winter commuter/day-to-day wardrobe. They are reasonably priced and are easy to recommend despite the lack of touchscreen functionality.
