Gloves for Raynaud's

Vetch

I'm looking for warm gloves for someone who has Raynaud's. Would anyone have recommendations please?

There was an article in the Indo today about this company http://www.kiwicountryclothing.ie/. Their gloves are made from merino, silk and possum fibre. Anyone have any experience of them?

I cycle in all weather, sleet & snow. If the gloves are just to keep warm while out walking, and not to be doing tactile stuff, then I would highly recommend oversized mittens or lobster mittens.

These are lobster mittens with the index finger free so you can do more stuff


I had all sorts of gloves and none came anywhere close to how warm these are. As they are oversized your hand is not in close contact with the material, it is like your hands are in mini sleeping bags.

If they are oversized you can also fit regular gloves underneath. I do this sometimes if it was absolutely freezing outside, but also if I have thin gloves underneath I can take the mitt off for a moment to do something tactile and not have a bare hand exposed.

You can also get battery powered electrically heated gloves.

I find wearing fingerless gloves a great help indoors. Keeping the blood vessels protected? And keeping the wrists warm,,I knit them and happy to do so for others.

Thanks - I took the very lazy route and took advantage of the free delivery to order some from Amazon!

if you need a spare pair! I have all colours in stock! ( money all goes to rescue babies overseas hence the sales pitch! )

They do work and also I butcher old socks to use as wrist and hand covers
