Our ratings (out of 10)

1 to 10, compared with the whole market. Each says what it's based on. How we score

Warmth

Estimate from maker's specs: thin liner glove 1/10

How warm they keep your hands at camp and on the move. 1: A real weak point.

Estimate from maker's specs

Weight

From maker's figures 9/10

How much they add to your pack. 9: Among the best you can buy for this.

41 g for the pair, Rab's figure (GO Outdoors and Cotswold repeat it): under 60 g, the top band.

Waterproofing

From maker's figures 2/10

How well they keep your hands dry and the wind out, from how they are made. 2: A weak point.

Rab sells it as a knitted baselayer glove with no wind or water claim, so the 'no claim' band. A liner's 1 means no weather protection by design.

What reviewers say (out of 10)

Ratings marked * are from reviews and are not part of the trip score. They are reviewers' scores, not our own measurements. How we score

Durability*

Estimate: only 1 review about durability (fewer than the 3 we need, so never above 8) 6/10

How well the palms, seams and fingertips hold up over seasons of use.

1 review on durability, e.g. "Only downside being the wear sustained to palms, with the material having fluffed up.".

In short

Good for

  • A light liner under shell gloves or mittens in colder weather
  • Cool, dry days as a glove on its own: Rab says it works as a stand-alone glove
  • Keeping spare gloves in the pack at 41 g a pair

Strengths

  • 41 g for the pair
  • Seamless knit with elasticated ribbed cuffs for comfort under layers
  • Quick-drying Thermolite yarn

Weaknesses

  • No wind or water protection by design
  • No grip print and no touchscreen claim
  • Rab sells only sizes M and L at the moment
  • No independent review found, so our judgement scores are blank
