Tucano Urbano Handwarm Gloves

RRP: £169.99 // www.tucano-urbano.com

New for this winter, Tucano Urbano has just unveiled its Handwarm heated gloves to help you tackle the cold.

Constructed from a technical Neoprene effect fabric with goat leather inserts, and a microfibre lining with PrimaLoft thermal padding, it could be argued that these new gloves from Tucano Urbano are the ultimate winter accessory. But that’s most thanks to the fact that they come with a built-in battery pack which works to warm up your fingers and palms.

More specifically, the gloves are fitted with a 7.4V rechargeable lithium battery – and they’re capable of running for three hours from a full charge. You can also get a spare battery, if you’re looking to use the heated gloves for longer periods.

In addition to their ability to keep the cold at bay, the Handwarm gloves are also designed to protect you from the rain. To this end, they come fitted with Tucano Urbano’s own Hydroscud breathable, waterproof inner membrane.

Crash protection is offered in the form of soft padding on the knuckles and soft D30 inserts on the palms. There’s also silicone rubber print on the palm to help offer improve grip, and a long cuff which works with an elastic adjuster and a Velcro strap on the wrist, to keep the worst of the weather from working its way in via your wrists. The gloves are also touchscreen compatible.

In short, the all-new Handwarm gloves sound like they’re well-equipped, advanced bits of kit, capable of keeping you dry as well as cosy and warm.
