Furnace Pro Gloves Recommended by TGO Magazine

Extremities is pleased to announce that the Furnace Pro Gloves have been recommended by The Great Outdoors Magazine. This recommendation was based on several factors including the fabric, shape, touchscreen use, and cuffs.

Chris Townsend, leading outdoor expert and author of various award-winning hiking and backpacking books, reviewed Extremities Furnace Pro Gloves in and around the Cairngorms. Tested throughout winter, spring and autumn, the gloves have been put to the test in cold, wet, windy, and even snowy conditions.

Awarded a total of 4.5 stars, Chris Townsend stated that ‘the gloves are soft, flexible and have better dexterity than stiffer ones. The touchscreen pads on the forefinger and thumb are quite easy to use. The palms and the tips of the first finger and thumb are reinforced with PU to minimise wear with trekking poles or ice axes.’

Although they can handle some pretty rough conditions, the Furnace Pro gloves can seamlessly fit into everyday wear, enabling you to go straight from the office to the outdoors. With their touchscreen compatibility, X-Dry technology and high-quality PrimaLoft thermal protection, these gloves are guaranteed to keep you dry, warm, and looking great. The zipped cuff offers a closer fit and the ‘Furnace Pro Gloves are very comfortable and warm’ demonstrating the gloves as both technical and aesthetic gloves for everyday wear.

Chris Townsend concluded his review of the Furnace Pro Gloves by expressing that they have proven themselves for winter hillwalking. Read the full review from TGO Magazine here.
