Review: Polartec Power Stretch Touchscreen Winter Running Gloves

I’m no runner, but I do like to ride an electric bike. In New Jersey, the weather is often not great, and electric bike speeds tend to be pretty high, so it’s easy to have cold hands. Fortunately, I found a good solution for cold rides with the Polartec Power Stretch Touchscreen Winter Running Gloves.

I was originally sent a Fingerless Billiards Glove (which seemed nice enough, but it’s not what I ordered and I have no way to test it), but the company corrected the mistake and sent me the correct item. I’m glad the right item came, because these fit great, are nice and warm, and work well with my iPhone’s touchscreen.

The thumb, index finger, and middle fingers of each hand are touchscreen capable and there’s a slightly grippy surface for the palm area of your hands. I got the Large size, and again, these stretchy gloves fit exactly as I’d expect them to. I find the extended glove base a nice touch, as it keeps your wrists warm and covers the gap between your jacket and hands. It’s highly recommended if you’re looking for a comfortable pair of running gloves or good lightweight gloves in general.
