TECHNOLOGY AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

Spring is coming, but it can still be a bit nippy out on two wheels – especially on the hands which are exposed to the full wind chill factor. Heated gloves have come a long way since they were first introduced to the market, and Tucano Urbano’s latest heated gloves are no exception.

SEPPIAWARM Seppiawarm gloves are heated on the palm and fingers; they’re powered by a rechargeable 7.4v (2200 mAh) lithium battery that lasts around four hours at maximum power. The gloves are waterproof and breathable thanks to its Hydroscud®inner membrane, polyester wadding on the palm and back, and a soft microfibre lining. The palm is made with faux suede with goatskin leather inserts and features a flexible, abrasion-resistant rubber insert.

Available in sizes XS-3XL.

RRP: £179.99 (including battery and charger).

STORMING The new Storming winter gloves contain all the key basics of a good winter glove plus highlights like a microfibre lining, grip-enhancing silicone print on the palm, reflective inserts, touchscreen compatibility and a two-layer visor wiper. This glove has an extra-long cuff for full coverage and mini Ripstop fabric on the back, and there’s a micro-injected, abrasion-resistant, flexible rubber insert on the palm and certified armour across the knuckles. Available in sizes S-3XL.

RRP: £57.99.

OTHER GLOVE OPTIONS

Tucano Urbano has also introduced the Hydrowarm CE-approved heated gloves in polyester fabric (RRP £149.99) and the Feelwarm 2G CEapproved heated gloves in a technical fabric (RRP £134.99) – both with D3O®abrasion-resistant inserts on the palm and long cuff.
