Light merino warmth that works well on its own or as a liner.
Extremities says:
The Merino Wool Thinny Glove delivers excellent warmth-to-weight performance in a lightweight, quickdrying design, with naturally thermal and antibacterial merino properties. Ideal for outdoor activities, active sports, or as a base layer in colder conditions.
Our Verdict
The Extremities Merino Thinny Glove Unisex weighs 57g and uses a 98% merino wool fabric with a little elastane to keep the fit close and comfortable.
I like merino for this kind of glove because it provides useful warmth without much bulk, making it easy to wear for long days, whether on its own in milder conditions or under a waterproof shell glove when it gets colder.
The close fit helps maintain dexterity, and touchscreen compatibility means you do not need to keep taking them off for basic phone use.
They aren't designed to offer much wind or weather protection on their own, but as a light thermal layer, I think the simple merino construction makes a lot of sense.
