Winter Gloves That Keep Your Fingers Warm

Start with a comfortable fit and keep the lining dry. A thin liner under a roomy shell can add a layer, but avoid crowding the fingers.

Fingertips are exposed to cold and can feel chilled when gloves are damp, tight or poorly matched to the conditions. Take a warm-up break and seek shelter if numbness develops.

A longer cuff can overlap a coat sleeve and help reduce drafts or snow entry. Check that the cuff works with the jacket you plan to wear.

Mittens let fingers share warmth and may suit colder, lower-dexterity activities. Gloves make it easier to handle tools, zippers and small objects.
