The Classic Lite DRY Gloves are warm, comfortable, and have excellent touchscreen functionality. They are a great choice for a variety of winter activities.
Trekmates says:
The Classic Lite is a lightweight, waterproof shell glove that can be paired with any of our base layer or fleece gloves for additional warmth on cold days. The durable, grippy soft feel PU palm and pre-curved rolled-tip fingers provide excellent dexterity and grip for poles or walking axes, while taped and sewn finger tips on the lining and outer help prevent glove inversion.
Our Verdict
These are impressive gloves, especially for their relatively inexpensive price. If you are looking for a good, warm all-rounder, it's hard not to recommend Classic Lite DRY Gloves. They are incredibly warm and not too bulky.
The gloves fit well and are comfortable to wear. The fingers are pre-curved and anatomically stitched, which allows them to bend with your fingers and reduces fatigue when worn for long periods.
The gloves also have excellent touchscreen functionality, which is impressive considering their bulkiness. They are the best "mid-layer" gloves with touchscreen functionality that I have used. I was able to navigate with a good degree of accuracy and take photos with ease.
These Polyamide gloves are durable and easy to use. They have a plush fleece-lined polyester interior that provides warmth and comfort. While they are somewhat waterproof, I would wear them with a rugged, waterproof outer shell if I were going to be in the mountains. However, I highly recommend these gloves for almost every other winter activity.
