Hestra Glove System

Stay warm with the three-layer principle

Keeping your hands warm involves more than choosing a single pair of gloves. Hestra's Glove System is based on the same principle as layering clothing for the body. By combining different glove layers, you can regulate warmth, manage moisture, and adapt protection to weather and activity level. The result is a balanced combination of comfort, mobility, and protection.

1. The liner – the hand's base layer

The liner is worn closest to the skin and wicks moisture away while creating an insulating layer of air. It helps the hand retain warmth and protects against contact cold when you remove your outer glove for tasks that require precision. A thin five-finger liner can increase warmth by approximately 20 percent when used together with a base glove.

2. The base glove – the foundation of the system

The base glove is the model you use most often. It protects against moderate cold, wind, and wet conditions, and provides a good balance between warmth and mobility. Models with removable lining make it easier to adjust insulation to temperature and activity level.

3. The shell glove – extra protection when needed

The shell glove acts as a reinforcement layer when the cold sets in, conditions turn wet, or you stay still for longer periods. It creates an additional layer of insulating air around the hand, significantly increasing warmth. Combined with a liner, a shell glove can provide up to 50 percent more warmth than using a base glove alone. It takes up little space and is easy to pack away until you need it.
