Why do you need running gloves?

As we enter into the colder months of the year you’re probably starting to reach for your winter wardrobe, but does that include a pair of running gloves? If not, then you might be thinking what are running gloves and why do I need them?  

How are they different to regular gloves?  

Running gloves are specially designed with a few key features that make them different from the regular woolly gloves most people are familiar with. 

  • Keeping you warm: Running gloves are made thinner than other gloves using lightweight fabrics that keep you well insulated on colder days. 
  • Staying dry: One of the major differences between a standard glove and a glove designed for running is the running gloves’ ability to keep your hands dry. Often made from a moisture-wicking fabric, this is designed to pull moisture (specifically sweat) away from the body and keep your hands dry. 
  • Safety: The majority of running gloves are designed with reflective details, keeping you safe when running in lower light conditions, especially in the Autumn and Winter months. 

Why do I need them?

Our hands get colder than other parts of the body when we’re exposed to lower temperatures. This is because the body is prioritising blood flow to the core meaning blood is drawn away from our hands and feet. On top of that, the hands are a relatively small part of the body and don’t have the best circulation capability anyway. Pair these factors with dropping temperatures in the Autumn and Winter and you can imagine that running without gloves can become quite unpleasant and distracting from your workout. 

What do we recommend?
