Choosing The Right Style and Lining of Winter Work Gloves

Now that we are transitioning from the hot summer days to the colder (and longer) winter days, it is essential to change the products we use on job sites and in the warehouse. As the body takes away heat from your extremities to stay warm, it is essential to choose the right winter work gloves to keep your fingers warm.

Changing your gloves from a summer, light weight gloves to winter insulated work gloves is a must. Due to the variety of winter weather we face, insulated work gloves come in a variety of linings and outer coatings, making them work for any application. First, let’s go over the different styles of glove linings that are available:

• Red Fleece Lined Work Gloves – these gloves have a red fleece lining that is brushed for softness and thermal properties
• Pile Lined Gloves – Essentially cotton or a cotton blend lining that is very soft.
• Foam Lined Winter Work gloves – creates a barrier between your hands and the air. Super lightweight and provides a “cushioning” in the glove
• ThermoSock Lining – a high loft matte fiber that keeps your hands warm
• Thermal Lined – Thermal material specifically sewn to create air pockets for natural insulation
• Cotton/String Knit Liners – Liners made to be worn under your gloves for extra warmth
• 100% Thermastat – Great for thermal insulation and one of the best liners in the industry.
• Thinsulate – Light and warm synthetic insulation

No lining will work, if we don’t take into consideration the external conditions. If you are need gloves for dry environments (such as a warehouse, operating a forklift or a truck) then the shell does not need to be waterproof. If you are working in the elements such as rain or snow, then having a fully coated shell on the outside to prevent water from getting in is essential. Our most popular waterproof winter glove is the Fully Coated Acrylic Terry Liner Ninja Ice
