Point6 has introduced its Base Glove, a seamless, fast-drying glove designed for active outdoor use.
Products made with merino wool keep you drier than most synthetic fibers but using merino in a glove, which needs more structural nylon than a hat or a sock, is a challenge for product designers.
The solution, Point6 uses dynamic nylon called 37.5, which contains active natural particles that increase the fiber’s surface area, allowing it to use body heat to evaporate moisture in vapor form (before it becomes sweat), which enhances body temperature regulation and humidity next to the skin.
Unlike a neutral fiber like nylon, 37.5 performs like merino wool.
Using 37.5 plus an advanced 3D knit process offers a form-fitting, quick-dry, seamless glove that is also touch screen enabled.
