Kombi gloves and mittens are made with a focus on performance, quality, and versatility. Everybody knows it is the proper pair of gloves or mittens that enables an individual to enjoy the outdoors in comfort, creating a pleasant experience both on the mountain or around the town. The four basic elements that create heat loss.
EVAPORATION: Heat loss from the cooling effects of moisture on the skin. Kombi's wicking linings address this by moving the perspiration on your hands away from the skin to the outer shell of the glove or mitten. CONDUCTION: Heat loss caused by direct heat transfer from something warm to something cold (placing a bare hand on a cold window for example). Kombi's full wrap construction using the various components of shell, insulation and lining insulate against this type of heat loss. CONVECTION: Heat loss as a result of natural body heat escaping into the air. The Kombi multi-layered construction minimizes body heat loss by trapping air in the various components of each style. RADIATION: Heat loss due to the transfer of heat from a warm environment to a cold one. Here again the Kombi multi-layered system, and in particular our use of waterproof/breathable inserts, works to minimize heat loss due to radiation.
