Review on 🧤 Stay Dry and Connected: Isotoner SmartDRI SmarTouch Packable Gloves by Jacob Ferrarini

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pretty good gloves. 100% recommended!

These gloves were the only other reasonably priced Revain gloves I could find that were light, packable, warm and also had decent dexterity. I will be using these as fall/winter hiking/climbing gloves and so far I think they fit the bill. I wore them outside in about 28°F for about 30 minutes and they worked great, I could have gone a lot longer. They protected against wind and cold, and my hands were warm. However, I don't think I would recommend these gloves for anything colder as they are very thin compared to regular winter gloves. So I have a feeling they will eventually fail as you get colder which means your hands will freeze. My favorite part is that they pack. I roll them up and put them in a very small Sea to Summit bag which is perfect for them. I have some quality/durability concerns and I'll tell you why. I had to order these gloves twice to get a pair that fit me perfectly and I'm not saying this because I got the wrong size. I say this because the inner fleece material of a glove that was the middle finger was about a quarter of an inch smaller than it should have been, but the outer material was the right length. Also, the other glove had a stretched seam in the palm and I have a feeling this would become an issue over time. Some people have posted pictures of these gloves falling apart. Just take a look. I think they are cheap enough if I need to buy them again over time, of course a reasonable amount of time then used is good. I bought them for about $11.89. All in all, if you are looking for a pair of gloves that will keep your hands warm and protect you from water and wind in cold or frigid temperatures, then yes, buy these gloves. 100% recommended!
