RUNNING TOUCHSCREEN FUNCTION so you can use your SMARTPHONE => how does it work?
We listened to feedback from runners for this second version (V2). The component used for the ends of the index finger and thumb has been totally modified.
We selected an ultra-soft imitation suede component to boost:
- the effectiveness and precision of the touchscreen function
- the durability
How do I optimise the touchscreen function?
In addition to choosing the right size, it is also important to adjust the extremities of the fingers of your gloves (especially the thumb and index finger) to ensure they are correctly positioned and avoid creating creases at the touchscreen parts.
Running with gloves in cool/cold weather
Every runner may have a different sensitivity to cold.
Our 100 V2 touchscreen gloves are designed for running in cold weather at temperatures of between 5°C and 11°C. The comfort temperature is 11°C.
Our gloves strike the right balance between weight, breathability and practicality.
For those who prefer more warmth when out running, we recommend choosing other models in our range, such as the Warm+ 500 V2 gloves or Evolutiv V2 gloves (with removable membrane).
Choosing the right SIZE - how does that work?
Choosing the right size is essential to:
- run in comfort
- optimise the touchscreen function on the index finger and thumb of the gloves.
Gloves that fit the shape of your hands perfectly optimise touchscreen effectiveness when using the screen of your smartphone.
Our tool for measuring your palm size and hand length will allow us to recommend a size.
Where possible, we recommend trying on the product in a store.
ECO-DESIGN - what does that mean as regards the COMPONENT?
The fabric parts are made from 87% recycled polyester
This product is made from recycled polyester for a reduced environmental impact (instead of traditional polyester, derived from plastics produced by the petrochemical industry).
The aim: to use a recycled material, transformed from production waste or products set to be thrown out rather than use new oil resources.
ECO-DESIGN - what does that mean as regards the COLOUR?
90% of the colour of the fabric is achieved through dope dying.
Dyeing fabric requires huge quantities of water, chemicals and energy.
To reduce this impact, we use the 'dope dyeing' technique, which consists in integrating coloured pigments in powder form during the manufacture of the yarn (and not dipping into dye baths, which is the usual method). This technique reduces consumption and waste water caused by the colouring process.
