It’s an arctic tundra outside. The snow is falling and you’re rugged up from head to toe. All of sudden, the boss calls and you scramble desperately to remove your woolly mittens after swiping unsuccessfully on your smartphone screen.
Finally, removing your hands from the glove, your fingers turn white as you manage to answer the call. Hanging up the phone, you look down to see your pale blue hands, screaming desperately for a much-needed reprieve from the ice-cold air. Slipping them back into the safety of your glove, you wonder, “there must be a better way?”
Well, thankfully, there is, and it’s called touch screen conductive leather and it’s available from the Mission Workshop. Say hello to the Strasse X, the latest high-performance winter glove from glovemaker Paul Wood at Philleywood Gloves.
Despite being handmade in California’s warmer state, these incredible gloves are made using Schoeller wb-400 softshell fiber, offering increased warmth, breathability, and weather resistance.
Melding together superior material technology with a high level of craftsmanship, the Strasse X is undoubtedly one of the best utility gloves on the market. Perfect for freezing temperatures and blizzards, wearers can even use them in warmer climates or for getting a better grip while cycling.
Sporting an innovative 4-way stretch that is also wind and water repellent, the glove is fused together with a highly breathable c_change membrane, giving you even more adaptability in changing conditions and environments.
Complete with a NanoSphere textile fabric for even more repelling features, not even oil is able to seep in. Benefitting from tanning and water resistance treatment in the UK, each glove provides superior tactile sensitivity, comfort, extended softness, and durability.
On the palm-side is where things get even more functional thanks to the Pittards WR100X leather. Offering increased grip, comfort, and tactile sensitivity, each finger is compatible with any touchscreen device, allowing you to keep your gloves on regardless of who’s calling.
Just be aware that due to the micro-batch manufacturing process, the Strasse X is currently sold out. Fortunately, with production now into its second half, you can be notified via email when they arrive. Visit Mission Workshop to get your hands inside these high-performance winter gloves.
