If you love skiing powder in minus degrees and filming or photographing yourself or others while doing it then you’ll love these gloves that keep your hands warm and allow you to operate your touch screen camera phones at the same time.
Swany Supreme Gloves
The Swany Supreme is a cheeky mitten with a side zipper and removable inner fleece glove with touch screen compatible suede fingertip and thumb. So you can pop your working digits out of the mitten without removing the mitten or exposing bare fingers thanks to the inner touch screen liner.
We think this makes this glove a total winner. The mitten is made from smooth grain leather shield with digitized reinforced palm, has an AquaGuard lock down zipper, quick release strap and premium Insult for serious warmth.
RRP US$145
XTM Verbier Glove
Oyuki Sencho Mitt
Oyuki gloves are tested in Japan and are the brain child of Rhythm Japan founder, Matt Hampton. The Sencho Mitt is goatskin leather with an adjustable double layer cuff to create a seal under your jacket. There’s a Gore Tex membrane and 200gram Primaloft Gold Insulation for weather and warmth.
We’re not a fan of mittens without internal fingers and the Sencho doesn’t disappoint. There’s even a touch screen tip on the outside of the mitten – not as user friendly as an inner liner with touch screen but when it’s super cold in the Japan powder you’ll be thankful it’s on the outside.

Hestra Touch Point Warmth – 5 finger
We’ve personally test driven this one while in sub zero conditions at the bottom of FIS World Cup events. This is essentially a liner glove but we wore it with fingerless shearling over the top to keep the touch screen digits accessible while reporting on real time scores. The beauty of the liner is you can use it under your ski gloves or mittens during winter and for running and hiking during spring.
