ZANIER heat.stx splitboard glove

GORE-TEX® gloves + Gore warm technology

The ZANIER classic among heated gloves is the perfect companion for icy cold winter days, it works perfectly even without heating and keeps you warm.

The ecological SYMPATEX® membrane makes the model waterproof, while the THINSULATE® insulation is lightweight and robust. The 4-way stretch upper ensures comfort, while the palm is made from high-quality, durable goatskin. With TOUCH function for operating the smartphone and LEASH for the wrist.

The ZANIER heating technology is based on highly developed textile heating elements and unique control electronics. The lightweight, robust lithium-ion dual batteries disappear almost imperceptibly in the cuff of the glove and warm all fingers. The 3-stage heating regulation guarantees particularly easy handling: on the cuff of the backhand, an LED light in the shape of a flame on the battery, which shines through the upper material, indicates the respective heating level using the colors yellow, orange and red. This can be adjusted with a switch directly on the battery depending on the outside temperature and how cold you feel - for up to 10 hours. The battery can be recharged in no time at all using the USB charger supplied.

Like everything we sell, we test it extensively on the mountain beforehand. I didn't have to be asked for long to do the tester for the “cold fingers” problem on the mountain. Although I know all the tricks - and there's only one anyway: Move your fingers - I often struggle with cold fingers on the mountain. On the one hand, as a ski tour guide with groups - you help here, you help there - or you stand a lot and explain things to the participants. On the other hand, even when I'm on a private tour, after the snack at the Gifpel you have cold fingers from the food - you shiver during the summit break because you slowly cool down after the ascent. It doesn't even have to be a particularly cold day with -20°C. Normal winter days are enough for me. I tested the HEAT technology from Zanier for 2 winters before we added them to our range. Conclusion: I wouldn't want to be without this glove technology. Without active heating, it is a great glove with top grip, durable and robust. With the heating activated, it's a dream and there are no more cold fingers. The battery charge easily lasts a whole day at level 1 and level 3 (2.5 hours) is so hot that it is only needed for a short time.
