The Geon is an ideal all-rounder for cool to cold conditions. This simple, lightweight, warm glove is great for general purpose use.
Rab says
Ideal for four-season hiking, cold winter scrambles and long, arduous approaches to the rockface, it uses Thermic™ fleece with a soft brushed back and integrated elastane for improved fit and dexterity. Hydrophobic and highly breathable, the minimised seams help reduce friction when used beneath an outer shell and the adjustable wrist strap ensures a secure, draught-free fit. With its combination of fast-wicking warmth, wet-weather performance and action-friendly movement, it’s the perfect multi-purpose glove for pushing hard in the hills.
Our Verdict
Rab's Womens Geon Gloves are a light, comfortable glove that's perfect for general use. The stretchy Thermic fleece fabric gives you warmth and some weather protection. This versatile and durable material is worth the weight over lighter alternatives.
These gloves do a good job in regulating heat more effectively than normal, traditional fleece. It allows excess heat to escape when things warm up but in colder conditions that warm air can be trapped in to keep you warm. It is also really good at wicking moisture and dries pretty quickly too so it works really well for a range of outdoor activities.
