Women's Gloves

Women’s gloves have a narrower hand circumference and shorter finger length compared to unisex styles. 

Measure your hand’s circumference at the widest point (excluding thumb) with fingers relaxed. Compare to brand-specific charts: sizes typically range from 5-9 for women, with 16-20.5cm hand circumferences. 

Top winter gloves use layered membranes (like GORE-TEX®, Aquasealz™ or Porelle®) and PFC-free DWR to fully block rain while letting sweat escape—ideal for soggy UK hills or snow days.

Conductive fabrics, often silver or copper thread in the fingertips, let you use phones or GPS devices with gloves on—so you’re never caught cold while checking maps or messages.

Premium gloves use lightweight synthetics (like PrimaLoft® or 3M Thinsulate™), soft merino wool, or fleece linings to balance thermal performance with a slim, flexible fit.

Look for silicone overlays, microdot prints, or textured palms/fingers for non-slip grip—essential for holding poles, mugs, or gear even with cold, wet hands.

These styles let you switch between full warmth and instant finger freedom for tying laces, snapping photos, or using touchscreens—ideal for stop-start hiking or active city commutes.

Women’s-specific gloves usually have slimmer palms, shorter fingers, and softer cuffs. Check the brand’s guide, measure your hand, and pick a snug but not tight fit for best warmth.

Wearing liner gloves under insulated or waterproof outers offers custom warmth for variable weather, letting you adapt quickly to changing UK conditions on the hill.

Select gloves feature merino wool and polygiene or silver-based treatments that naturally resist odour during sweaty sessions and multi-day trips.
