Made from 93% recycled polyester, the Etip Recycled Gloves from The North Face provide comfort and warmth without having to sacrifice the use of your phone. The soft shell fabric at the palm, 4-way stretch fleece, and conductivity fingertip pads allow you to use touchscreen devices as you normally would. Plus, the silicone grip on the palms keeps your gadgets from sliding out of your hands.
"The Etip Recycled Gloves are undeniably stylish and boast impressive functionality when it comes to operating touch screen devices," one reviewer commented. "From the sleek design to the convenient color scheme, these gloves certainly caught my eye and fit my aesthetic preferences perfectly."
"Bought these as an early birthday gift for my husband for our trip to New York," another shopper said. "He's a big guy so I really appreciated the variety of sizes. They were perfect for our trip and the fingertips were great for his phone."
If you don’t own a pair of gloves that provide both comfort and warmth and are compatible with your touch screen—the Etip Recycled Gloves are a great choice. If you want to snag a pair at a discounted price make sure to log into your REI account or sign up for a membership before the sale ends Dec. 23.
