Dexterity Matters

First glove day of the season the other day. Emerging out in to the wind above Lose Hill Farm and the northerly strips the heat from my hands …

@niwaki.hq Season. Fleece lined Japanese winter gardening gloves. Waterproof. Grippy palms. Enough dexterity for most tasks. I carry probably 3 pairs right through until the end of Spring. Hammered them on winter ⛑️ rescues last year and all the pairs are still usable.

Did i mention that they’re £12 a pair ?

Buy online direct from Niwaki or in the shop in the @rheged_centre. Dry them out away from direct heat.

Oh, and don’t overlook ways of warming the blood in your forearm and wrist before it gets in your hand …. a fleece wristwarmer is the secret weapon for warm hands – @needlesports sell the @terranovaequipment ones for <£20

Cold hands outdoors in winter are a liability.
