ActiveIce Chroma Full Sun Gloves

Best driving/hiking gloves

have owned these superb sun protection gloves for years. Expensive but worth it. very breathable and light on your hands. I most often use them as driving gloves, and they have prevented the brown age spots that come with exposure to too much sun while driving. The palms are fairly thin preforated leather, so not designed as work gloves. Highly recommend!

Nice gloves.

I like the fit and functionality of these gloves. They work well in summer in hot humid climates like where I live. However the suede-like palm and finger material is weak and developed holes after only a few uses. I replaced them with new ones and the touch screen pads on the finger tips do not work for touch screens but seem to be heavier duty than the original material so maybe they will last longer.

Cute gloves

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I use them mainly for driving and they're super comfortable.

Really Comfortable SPF Protection

These gloves are true to size, well made, and offer sun protection that is hard to find. In addition they are so comfortable that I forget that I am wearing gloves.

I would recommend getting these!

I just used these gloves while spending time in Zion. I was afraid they'd get too hot being black, but I did not experience too much heat and the palm side of the gloves allows for good airflow. I used these while hiking angels landing and the gloves held up holding on to rocks and the chain. Kept my hands from sun damage. I would advise these for folks looking for full coverage.

Comfort with protection!

I've worn these on a few hikes now and they live up to the 5 stars! Very light and breathable with all the protection from the elements. I love the placement of the padding as it makes hiking with trekking poles so much easier! A piece of gear every hiker or backpacker should own!

Perfect gloves

They fit perfect. They don't make your hand sweat and they keep the sun off your hands and they protect your hands from the tracking poles. Excellent

Excellent

Thin and tactile, with just enough protection. Breathable so my hands don't get too hot. Touch sensitivity is very appreciated. Excellent support from OR. I only wish I could get it without the giant OR logo, but they are great gloves!

Yellow Zinger

I loved my yellow zinger full sun gloves. But OR seems to have stopped making them. I lost my last pair on a bus in the Italian Dolomites. The current colors are not so fun. I am hoping for another production run.

I Keep buying these gloves

I use these gloves for sun protection year round. Comfortable even in the summer. Bought this pair because my previous pair "walked off"...
