Warm & Safe Women's Classic Style Rider 12v Heated Gloves are made from Grade A top grain drum dyed cowhide.
These gloves are also sold under the FirstGear brand.
These heated gloves include a thin layer of genuine Thinsulate. Thinsulate keeps you warm when it’s cold outside. The unique microfibers or fine fibers that make up Thinsulate insulation work by trapping air molecules between you and the outside. The more air a material traps in a given space‚ the better it insulates you from the cold outside air.
Not using a thick layer of insulation, like many others, allows you to feel the bike and not fatigue your hands.
The inside of the Warm & Safe Heated gloves are made with a breathable "Waterproof" Membrane. The palms have reinforced protection.
The fingers are pre-curved providing comfort the first you put them on.
The thumb has double heat, you will appreciate it.
ABOUT POWER SUPPLY
These heated gloves draw power from the vehicle 12v system. Alternatively they can be powered by a portable lithium battery but would produce less heat since portables are usually 7.4v
If you connect gloves to a heated jacket liner ( with sleeve connectors) you are already running then you do not need anything else. Just the gloves.
If you do not use a heated jacket liner then you need a long Y cord (here) and controller (here).

To measure for Gloves: take a tape measure and wrap it around your
hand over the knuckles (thumb not included). Make sure to measure your
dominant hand.
Glove sizing differs from brand to brand. In one brand you can have a L while in the other you need XL
Sizing on gloves is difficult.
The Women's Classic glove has shorter fingers than the Men's gloves but are otherwise same size.
If you have long fingers, the Men's might be a better choice. But you can always order both gloves and return for a full refund the one that does not fit right.
