Possum/Merino Gloves - Short Fingers:

Warm and strong gloves made of possum and merino wool, specially designed for outdoor work. The short fingers give you more freedom of movement and grip for work. The gloves stay warm even when wet. The polypropylene outer layer makes the gloves sturdier/stronger and less fluffy. To have full protection against wind and weather, you can combine them with a water-repellent leather glove. All in all, a perfect glove for the active outdoorsman!

The reason why these gloves are so great is because of the use of material. Namely, they are made of a special blend of soft merino wool and insulating possum fur. This combination makes the gloves very warm without being heavy. The idea of combining these two natural fibres comes from New Zealand, and was first developed by a New Zealand knitter as a by-product of the possum (possum) management programme, making merino/possum an eco-friendly choice.

Possum fleece is one of the most extraordinary natural fibres in the world, thanks to its hollow core; this cavity traps a tunnel of air that provides extraordinary warmth (up to 30% more than standard wool garments), while minimising the weight of the fibre. As a sign of how effective this feature is, the only other animal with a hollow core fibre is the polar bear.

Sizing:

Weft's gloves may fit snugly around the hand, so your hands/fingers remain usable! They will start to form more to the hand after a few wearings. Use the size chart below to find out your size. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size!
