Winter running gloves that help cold‑sensitive hands stay warm, dry and usable

Built for UK winter runs, walks and outdoor sports – with extra care for Raynaud’s, chilblains, arthritis and cold‑sensitive fingers

Cold weather does more than make your hands feel chilly. For many runners, walkers and outdoor enthusiasts, it turns fingers numb and clumsy, stiffens already sore joints, and makes even simple tasks – tying laces, checking a route, holding a dog lead or using a phone – feel awkward, painful or impossible. If you live with Raynaud’s, chilblains, hand arthritis or simply very cold‑sensitive fingers, it can be striking how quickly winter conditions turn a planned run, walk or training session into something you cut short or avoid altogether.

RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are designed to help change that experience. They are built around the demands of real UK winters: cold wind, steady drizzle, sudden showers, sleet, light snow and wet pavements, rather than just dry, crisp days. The aim is straightforward – to help keep your hands warm, dry and usable for longer, so you can keep moving comfortably instead of spending your time worrying about how your fingers will cope.

These gloves combine a slim, flexible fit with a waterproof outer layer, wind‑blocking cuffs and a soft thermal lining. Together, these features help shield your fingers and joints from cold air, wind chill and damp fabric – three of the most common triggers for winter hand problems. The result is a glove that is warm enough for serious cold, but still practical for everyday movement, whether you are running, walking briskly, commuting by bike or staying active on the sidelines.

Why winter hits some hands harder than others

Not everyone’s hands react to the cold in the same way. Some people can spend hours outdoors with only mild discomfort, while others find their fingers becoming painful, numb or useless within minutes. If your hands fall into the second group, it usually reflects how your circulation, joints, nerves and skin respond to cold, wind and damp.

Raynaud’s‑type reactions and cold‑sensitive circulation
Raynaud’s involves episodes where the small blood vessels in the fingers narrow sharply in response to cold or sudden temperature changes. Fingers can turn very pale or white, sometimes with a bluish tinge, then become numb and difficult to move before turning red and painful as they warm up again. Attacks often last minutes to an hour and commonly affect several fingers on both hands.

Chilblain‑prone fingers
Chilblains are small, sore, often itchy red or purple areas that appear on the backs and sides of the fingers (and sometimes toes) after repeated exposure to cold, damp conditions. They can feel burning or tender to touch and may swell slightly. They often become noticeable some hours after coming indoors and can linger for days or weeks, frequently recurring in the same spots each winter.

Stiff, painful hands in the cold (including osteoarthritis)
Osteoarthritis and other long‑standing joint problems in the hands often feel worse in cold, damp weather. The small joints at the base of the thumb and along the fingers can feel stiff, sore or achy, especially when you first start using your hands in the cold or after rest. Everyday tasks such as gripping a lead, holding handlebars, carrying shopping or fastening zips can bring on pain more quickly in low temperatures.

Very cold‑sensitive hands without a diagnosis
Some people do not have a named condition but still find that their hands react very strongly to the cold. Fingers may become painfully cold, numb or clumsy much sooner than the rest of the body, and can take a long time to feel normal again after coming indoors. This is often more noticeable in people who have always had “cold hands”, who are naturally slim, or who live with conditions such as diabetes or peripheral neuropathy that affect sensation and healing.

In all of these situations, cold air and wind chill around the fingers, damp fabric next to the skin, and sudden temperature changes – for example, taking gloves off briefly in the cold or going straight from a cold outdoor session into very warm indoor air – tend to set problems off.

Understanding common winter hand problems in more detail

If your hands react very strongly to the cold, it can be reassuring to understand what may be going on in a little more depth. The information below does not replace medical advice, and it cannot diagnose any condition, but it can help you recognise patterns and think more clearly about how to protect your hands in winter.

Raynaud’s‑type reactions in cold weather

Raynaud’s involves episodes where the small blood vessels in the fingers narrow sharply in response to cold or sudden temperature changes. During an attack, one or more fingers may turn pale or white, sometimes bluish, and feel numb or “dead”. As they warm up and blood flow returns, they may turn red and feel burning, throbbing or very painful. Attacks can be brief, lasting only a few minutes, or drag on for much longer, especially if your hands stay cold.

For many people, this is primary Raynaud’s – a tendency for the vessels to over‑react to cold without an underlying serious disease. In others, Raynaud’s is secondary to conditions such as autoimmune or connective tissue disease. Secondary Raynaud’s is often more severe and can sometimes lead to ulcers, pits or slow‑healing sores at the fingertips. The level of risk and the type of monitoring needed can therefore vary between individuals.

Typical triggers include stepping out into cold air without gloves, holding cold objects such as metal or bottles outdoors, or taking gloves off briefly in cold wind or rain. Even a short spell of exposure can be enough to start an episode, especially at the beginning of an outing when your whole body is colder. During a run, walk or outdoor sports session, this often shows up as fingers that go numb and lose strength partway through, particularly if you pause, cool down quickly or use a phone with bare hands.

The key issue in Raynaud’s‑type reactions is how quickly and how far the temperature around the fingers changes. Sudden cooling and rapid swings between cold and warm conditions tend to set attacks off more than steady, mild cold. Keeping hands covered, avoiding repeated glove‑off moments in the cold, and reducing wind chill are simple day‑to‑day steps that can help many people reduce the frequency or intensity of attacks. Gloves cannot prevent Raynaud’s altogether, but they can smooth some of the temperature changes that often trigger attacks and make it easier to stay outside for longer.

Anyone who notices Raynaud’s‑type episodes for the first time, or who sees a clear change in pattern – for example, attacks becoming much more severe, affecting more fingers, lasting longer, or the appearance of ulcers or pits at the fingertips – should discuss this with a GP. That conversation helps rule out underlying conditions that need specific medical care and allows you to plan sensible protection for your hands alongside any treatment that may be needed.

Chilblains on the fingers

Chilblains are small, painful or itchy areas that usually appear on the backs and sides of the fingers after repeated exposure to cold, damp conditions. They often look red or purple and can feel burning, sore or hot to the touch. In some cases they may swell slightly or develop small blisters. Chilblains often become noticeable some hours after you have come indoors and started to warm up, and can last days or weeks once formed. The same spots on the fingers often flare each winter.

They are thought to arise from how the tiny blood vessels in the skin react when chilled and then rewarmed. Cold, damp gloves or bare, wet hands mean the skin cools unevenly and stays cold longer than the rest of the body. If the fingers are then warmed very quickly – for example by placing them very close to a heater, using very hot water, or putting cold hands directly on a radiator – the small vessels can over‑react, leading to localised inflammation and pain. The skin over chilblains can feel thin and fragile, and scratching or picking them can easily break the surface.

People who spend long periods outside in winter, or whose gloves frequently become wet from rain, sleet or snow, tend to be more prone to chilblains. Working or exercising in the cold with damp hands, followed by fast re‑warming indoors, is a familiar pattern. Having poor circulation, low body weight or conditions such as lupus and other autoimmune illnesses can also increase susceptibility.

Measures that keep the skin of the fingers drier, reduce cold wind on the hands, and avoid very rapid re‑warming can help some people experience fewer or milder chilblains over a winter season. That often means changing out of soaked gloves promptly, choosing gloves that keep the outer layers wet while the inside stays dry, and warming hands gradually rather than using intense direct heat. If chilblains break down into cracks or sores, become very painful, or are not improving, it is important to speak to a GP, especially if you have diabetes, known circulation problems or any condition that affects skin healing.

Stiff, painful hands in the cold (including osteoarthritis)

Hand osteoarthritis involves gradual wear‑and‑tear changes in the small joints, most often at the base of the thumb and the middle and end joints of the fingers. The joints can look a little enlarged or knobbly, and the surrounding tissues can feel sore, achy or stiff with use. Cold, damp weather often makes these sensations more noticeable, even if the joints already grumble on warmer days.

Stiffness is usually worse when you first start using your hands in the cold or after a spell of rest. Many people describe their fingers as “rusty” or “slow to get going” when they try to grip or pinch. Gripping a dog lead, holding handlebars, using poles, carrying shopping or fastening zips and laces can bring on aching or sharper pain more quickly when the temperature is low. Cooler tissues tend to move less easily, so the joints feel as if they need to loosen up before they work properly.

People with inflammatory or autoimmune conditions affecting the hands (such as rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis) often notice a similar pattern of increased stiffness and pain in cold, damp weather, even though the underlying joint changes are different. In these conditions, there may also be significant morning stiffness, swelling, warmth in the joints and general fatigue, which need medical assessment and ongoing management.

In all of these situations, keeping the fingers and joints warmer, and reducing direct exposure to cold air and wind, can help day‑to‑day comfort. Gentle movement of the fingers and thumbs, especially before going out, can also help. Gloves cannot change joint structure or replace medical treatment, but they can make it easier to use the hands for longer before stiffness and pain become limiting, and they are often recommended as part of a broader management plan for hand osteoarthritis and other long‑standing joint problems.

Cold‑sensitive hands without a diagnosis

Not everyone with very cold‑sensitive hands has a formal diagnosis such as Raynaud’s or arthritis. Some people simply notice that their fingers are always the first part of the body to feel icy, numb or painful in the cold. Hands may stay cold or take a long time to feel normal again after coming indoors, and the process of warming up can be uncomfortable. Sometimes this is something you have been aware of since childhood or adolescence; in other cases it becomes more obvious with age, weight loss or changes in general health.

Several factors can contribute to this, including naturally lower tissue padding in the hands, general circulation patterns and any previous injuries to the fingers or wrists. Conditions such as diabetes or peripheral neuropathy can alter how the hands feel and how quickly you notice rubbing or pressure, which means you may not always get early warning when the cold is causing a problem. Certain medications, smoking and prolonged stress can also influence how blood vessels behave in the hands.

Spending long periods outdoors in cold, windy or damp conditions, or doing stop‑start activity such as running with pauses, standing at a doorway, supervising outdoor work or moving repeatedly between indoors and outdoors, exposes the hands to repeated cycles of cooling and re‑warming. Over a day or a season, that can leave the hands feeling persistently oversensitive to cold.

Even without a specific diagnosis, it is sensible to protect hands that are clearly more sensitive to cold than the rest of the body. Well‑designed gloves, combined with other simple measures such as dressing in layers, keeping the rest of the body warm, and avoiding sudden changes from very cold to very hot when warming your hands, are often a central part of staying comfortable and active outdoors. Anyone who develops new, severe or rapidly worsening changes in hand pain, colour, strength or sensation – particularly if one hand is affected much more than the other, or if there are ulcers, cracks or colour changes that do not settle – should ask a GP or physiotherapist to review what is going on and advise on the best way to look after their hands.

Shared triggers in these situations
In all of these situations, the same things tend to set problems off:

Cold air and wind chill around the fingers and backs of the hands, particularly at the start of an outing or during pauses, when blood flow is already reduced.
Damp fabric next to the skin from rain, sleet, snow or sweat that cannot escape, which speeds up heat loss and holds the cold against the skin.
Sudden changes in temperature, such as taking gloves off briefly in the cold, moving straight from a cold outdoor session into very warm indoor air, or using very hot water or strong direct heat on chilled hands.

No glove can eliminate these triggers completely, and gloves cannot treat or cure any medical condition. However, well‑designed winter gloves can help reduce how often your hands are exposed to cold air, wind and damp, and can make the temperature changes around your fingers slower and gentler. For many people with Raynaud’s‑type circulation, chilblain‑prone skin, osteoarthritis, inflammatory hand conditions or very cold‑sensitive hands, that extra protection is a key part of staying active outdoors through the winter.

How RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves help protect your hands

To support cold‑sensitive hands properly, a winter glove has to do more than feel thick. It needs to manage cold air, wind, moisture and heat in a balanced way so your fingers stay protected without feeling bulky or damp. RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are built around that principle, with each part of the design chosen to address the triggers described above.

Layered thermal design to help maintain warmth without bulk

The gloves use a layered construction to trap a thin layer of warm air around your hands while still allowing you to move freely. This matters if your hands tend to react quickly to even modest drops in temperature.

Soft inner fleece lining sits next to your skin and helps hold warmth close to the fingers and joints. This gentle, steady warmth can make a clear difference if your fingers become stiff or painful as soon as they cool down, as is common with osteoarthritis, inflammatory hand conditions and long‑standing joint problems.
Insulating middle layer slows the escape of heat from your hands to the outside air. For people with Raynaud’s‑type circulation or chilblain‑prone fingers, helping the fingers stay closer to a comfortable temperature may mean episodes arrive less quickly and feel less intense when you are outdoors.
Protective outer shell works with these inner layers to shield the skin from direct contact with cold air, wind and moisture, so the temperature around the fingers changes more gradually instead of in sudden shocks that can trigger Raynaud’s attacks or aggravate painful joints.

This approach means the gloves feel warm and protective without the thick, rigid feel of heavy winter gloves that make it difficult to grip or adjust anything during a run, walk or outdoor session. You keep the benefits of insulation while still being able to use your hands for the smaller tasks that winter activity demands.

Waterproof outer layer to help keep hands dry

Cold and damp together are far more challenging for hands than cold alone. When rain, sleet or snow soak through a glove, the fabric next to the skin becomes wet, heat is lost more quickly, and the fingers cool faster. For people with Raynaud’s or chilblain‑prone hands, this wet‑and‑cold combination is a familiar trigger for episodes and flare‑ups.

The outer layer of RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves is designed to help keep out:

Rain and drizzle
Sleet and slush
Light snow

By reducing how much water can reach the inner layers and your skin, the gloves help:

Slow down heat loss from your fingers in wet conditions, so they cool more slowly instead of sharply.
Lower the chance of damp fabric sitting against the skin for long periods, which is particularly important if you are prone to chilblains or have fragile skin.
Create a drier, more stable setting for cold‑sensitive circulation, including the chilblain‑prone and Raynaud’s‑type reactions described earlier.

This also matters if you do not have a formal diagnosis but notice that once your gloves are wet, your hands quickly become numb, clumsy and uncomfortable. Keeping the inner layers dry is a simple, practical way to support your hands through typical UK winter conditions.

Wind‑blocking cuffs to reduce sudden cold exposure

Wind chill can strip warmth from the hands much faster than still air. It also tends to drive cold air in through gaps at the wrist, which is a common weak point in ordinary gloves. When cold air repeatedly reaches the skin around the wrists and backs of the hands, it can trigger Raynaud’s‑type episodes or increase discomfort in stiff, arthritic joints and inflamed soft tissues.

RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves use wind‑blocking cuffs to:

Seal the area around the wrist more effectively, reducing gaps where cold air can enter.
Limit the amount of cold air that can move up into the glove from the cuff as you move.
Smooth out sudden drops in temperature where blood vessels pass close to the surface, which may help reduce some of the sharp temperature swings that often start an episode.

Worn under or over a jacket sleeve, these cuffs form a closer barrier so that warm air is better retained and cold gusts are less likely to reach the skin. This is a simple but important detail if your hands are sensitive enough that even a short blast of cold air at the wrists can cause trouble.

Designed for movement: running, walking and outdoor sports

Many winter gloves keep hands warm when standing still but become frustrating once you start moving. They can feel bulky, restrict finger movement, trap too much sweat or make it difficult to handle equipment. If you run, walk briskly or take part in outdoor sports through the winter, you need gloves that work across a full session – from the first cold minutes, through your main effort, to the slower, cooler finish.

RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are shaped with active use in mind, so you can keep your hands working rather than simply wrapped up. The design balances warmth, protection and dexterity so that you do not have to choose between warm hands and functional ones.

Slim, flexible fit for grip and dexterity

The gloves are designed to sit close to the hand without feeling tight, so you can:

Curl your fingers easily around a dog lead, running belt, trekking pole or pushchair handle.
Adjust zips, laces, straps or rucksack clips without repeatedly taking the gloves off.
Maintain control over handlebars, outdoor fitness equipment or tools if you are working outside.

This matters especially if you:

Run or walk in all weathers and need to keep a steady grip for long periods.
Take part in outdoor sports or training where you often adjust or carry kit in the cold.
Have painful or stiff fingers and find bulky gloves make simple tasks more difficult and tiring.

By balancing warmth with flexibility, the gloves help you keep using your hands naturally rather than forcing you to clench against thick, rigid fabric. Many people with arthritis or long‑standing joint pain find that this combination of gentle warmth and preserved dexterity makes it easier to keep using their hands throughout a winter session.

Breathable construction to help manage sweat

During a run or brisk walk, your body produces heat and sweat. If moisture builds up inside a glove and cannot escape, your hands quickly become damp. Once your activity level drops – for example, when you stop at lights, wait for someone, or walk the last part of your journey – those damp hands can then cool rapidly. For people with cold‑sensitive circulation, chilblain‑prone skin or painful joints, this change in temperature can be enough to start symptoms or flare‑ups.

The materials used in RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are chosen to:

Allow moisture vapour from sweat to move out through the glove during continuous movement.
Reduce the “clammy” feeling that can develop inside fully sealed gloves on longer outings.
Help keep the skin and inner lining drier over the course of a run, walk, cycle or outdoor shift.

This balance between protection from the elements and the ability to breathe is particularly important for anyone training or working outdoors in cool, changeable conditions typical of a UK winter. It helps even out the temperature changes your hands experience as you warm up, work hard and then cool down again, rather than allowing a sharp chill to set in on damp skin.

Touchscreen‑compatible fingertips for fewer glove‑off moments

In modern winter training and outdoor activity, phones and sports technology are difficult to avoid. Stopping to remove gloves in the cold every time you need to check a route, change music, answer a call or record a run exposes your fingers to cold, wind and damp again and again. For people with Raynaud’s, chilblains, neuropathy or painful joints, these repeated short bursts of exposure can be enough to trigger symptoms or increase discomfort.

RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves include touchscreen‑compatible fingertips so you can:

Use your smartphone or other touchscreen devices outdoors with minimal glove removal.
Adjust settings on sports apps, watches and fitness trackers without fully uncovering your hands.
Handle quick tasks such as unlocking a phone, checking a message or confirming a route while keeping most of your fingers covered.

This reduces the number of times your hands are suddenly exposed to cold air and wind and helps you maintain a more consistent level of warmth around the fingers. If your hands are the first part of your body to “give up” in the cold, cutting down on glove‑off moments can make winter activity feel noticeably more manageable.

Everyday winter use beyond training

Although these gloves are built with running and outdoor sports in mind, the same features that support winter training also make them suitable for everyday cold‑weather use. Many people find them helpful for:

Cold morning and evening dog walks where fingers usually go numb within minutes.
Standing or moving on the sidelines of winter sports, where you are outdoors for long periods but not always moving enough to stay fully warm.
Commuting on foot or by bike in wind and rain, when fingers are exposed on handlebars, bags or railings.
Outdoor errands in cold, wet or blustery weather, such as shopping, school runs or supervising outdoor play.

If your hands become numb, painful or stiff quickly in the cold – whether due to Raynaud’s‑type circulation, chilblain‑prone skin, osteoarthritis, inflammatory hand conditions or simply very cold‑sensitive fingers – having a pair of gloves that balance warmth, protection and dexterity can make staying active and independent in winter noticeably easier.

What these gloves can – and cannot – do

It is important to be clear about what winter gloves can realistically offer. RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are designed to help manage exposure to cold, wind and damp – the conditions that often trigger or worsen problems such as Raynaud’s‑type reactions, chilblains, stiff arthritic joints, inflammatory hand conditions and very cold‑sensitive fingers. By keeping more warmth around your hands, blocking wind at the wrists, helping the skin stay drier and reducing how often you need to expose bare fingers to the cold, they can make winter activity more comfortable and manageable for many people.

They cannot treat or cure Raynaud’s, chilblains, arthritis, neuropathy or any other medical condition, and they are not a medical brace or splint. Some people will still experience episodes, flares or pain in cold weather even with good gloves, especially if their underlying condition is more severe. For most people, these gloves are best thought of as one practical part of a wider approach that may also include warm clothing, simple self‑care, breaking outdoor time into shorter spells when needed, and, where appropriate, advice or treatment from a GP or physiotherapist.

Fit, sizing and how to choose your gloves

A good fit matters both for comfort and for circulation, especially if you live with Raynaud’s, arthritis, diabetes, neuropathy or other circulation problems. RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are designed to feel secure and close to the hand without being tight or restrictive, so that warmth and protection are delivered without squeezing or pinching.

Available sizes
The gloves are available in Medium, Large and Extra Large. As a general guide:

People with smaller hands, or most women, usually suit a Medium.
People with average male hand size often choose a Large.
Those with broader or longer hands usually prefer an Extra Large.

If you already know your usual size in unisex winter gloves, that is a sensible starting point here. If you measure your hand around the widest part of the palm (excluding the thumb), a Medium typically suits smaller hands, a Large suits average‑sized hands, and an Extra Large is often better for larger hands or those who prefer a roomier fit.

How they should feel when on
When correctly sized, the gloves should:

Follow the shape of your fingers and thumbs without pulling, wrinkling or digging in at the seams.
Allow you to make a full fist and straighten your fingers comfortably without feeling that the fabric is resisting you.
Feel gently snug at the wrist, without a tight band, throbbing, pins and needles or loss of feeling.

Your fingers should feel supported but not squeezed. It is normal for them to feel warmer than usual once you go outside, but you should not notice increasing discomfort, tingling or unusual colour changes within a few minutes of putting the gloves on indoors. If you do, they are likely too small or too tight for you, and choosing the next size up is safer for your circulation.

If you are between sizes
If you find yourself between two sizes, think about your priorities:

If your main goal is warmth with a relaxed feel, or if you are particularly sensitive to pressure or have significant circulation issues, it is usually better to choose the larger size.
If you want a closer feel for handling kit and know your circulation tolerates a slightly firmer fit, you may prefer the smaller size, provided it does not feel tight at rest.

Jacket, jumper and running‑top cuffs can add a little extra pressure around the wrists. If you often wear several layers, allowing a small amount of extra room at the wrist can make the combination more comfortable and reduce the risk of unwanted constriction.

Using other layers
These gloves are designed to be worn as your main winter gloves rather than as thin liners. Some people with very cold‑sensitive hands, or those who are outside for long continuous periods, choose to use a very slim inner glove or liner on the coldest days. If you plan to do this, choosing the larger of two possible sizes can help keep both layers comfortable and avoid unnecessary pressure on your fingers and wrists. If your hands are very sensitive, it can be helpful to wear the gloves indoors for short periods at first to check that the fit feels right before heading out for longer sessions.

Important information and when to seek advice

Most people can use RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves safely as part of their usual winter clothing. However, there are some situations where you should take extra care or seek professional advice before relying on any glove or support product.

When to be cautious

Do not wear the gloves over open wounds, broken skin, obvious infection or ulceration on the hands or fingers.
If you have been advised to avoid close‑fitting garments on your hands because of severe circulation problems, nerve damage, previous frostbite or ulcers, speak to your GP or specialist before using any glove or support.
If you have diabetes, peripheral neuropathy or any condition that affects feeling in your hands, check your skin regularly for areas of rubbing, redness or damage, and avoid prolonged use if you cannot feel whether the gloves are too tight.
If the gloves make your hands feel significantly more painful, unusually dark or very discoloured compared with your normal pattern in the cold, remove them and allow your hands to warm gently indoors. Avoid very hot water or direct heat sources held close to the skin.

When to speak to a GP or physiotherapist

If you notice Raynaud’s‑type episodes (marked colour changes, numbness and pain) for the first time, or if your existing episodes are becoming much more frequent, severe or affecting more fingers than before.
If you develop chilblains, ulcers, cracks or sores on your fingers that are not healing or are getting worse over days or weeks, especially if you have diabetes or known circulation problems.
If you have persistent swelling, heat or redness in the hand joints, or pain that wakes you at night or does not ease when you are warm and resting.
If you experience new or rapidly worsening numbness, tingling, weakness or changes in hand shape, especially after an injury, fall or period of heavy use.

Gloves are there to protect and support your hands in challenging weather, not to hide signs of a more serious problem. If you are unsure about changes in your symptoms, or if something does not feel right, it is always sensible to ask a GP or physiotherapist for personalised advice. They can help confirm what is going on, rule out other causes and advise on how best to use equipment such as gloves alongside any treatment you may need.

30‑day comfort guarantee

Choosing new winter gloves can feel like a risk, especially if you have had disappointing experiences with gloves in the past or if you live with Raynaud’s, chilblains, arthritis or other hand conditions. RevitaFit offers a simple 30‑day comfort guarantee so you can test these gloves properly in your own routine and in real UK weather.

Wear the gloves on your usual winter runs, walks, commutes and outdoor activities for up to 30 days from the date you receive them. Notice how your hands feel at the start of an outing, during steady effort and as you cool down. If you do not feel that the gloves are helping to keep your hands warmer, drier and more usable in typical winter conditions, you can contact us within that period to arrange a return and refund of the purchase price.

This gives you the chance to see how the gloves perform with your own hands and your own activities, without being committed to keeping them if they are not right for you. It is a practical way to find out whether this design offers the support your hands need to stay active through the colder months.

Questions people often ask

How tight should these gloves feel?

They are designed to feel gently snug, not tight. You should feel light, even contact around your fingers, thumbs and wrists, without pinching, digging in or a “throbbing” sensation. If your fingers change colour more than usual, or if the gloves feel uncomfortable after a few minutes at rest, they are probably too small for you. In that case, choosing the next size up will give you warmth and protection without restricting circulation.

Can I wear them for long periods, such as a full morning outdoors?

Most people can wear these gloves comfortably for several hours at a time, including during work, commuting or longer walks. The materials are designed to balance insulation with breathability so your hands do not become excessively sweaty or clammy. If you plan to wear them for very long periods, it is sensible to take occasional short breaks indoors to check your skin, make sure your hands still feel comfortable and move your fingers fully.

Are they suitable if I have both Raynaud’s and hand arthritis?

Many people who live with both Raynaud’s‑type circulation problems and mild to moderate hand arthritis find that good thermal gloves help their fingers feel warmer, less stiff and more usable in cold weather. The aim here is to keep the fingers and joints warm, reduce wind chill and limit damp fabric against the skin. These gloves are not a medical brace and cannot change joint shape or treat the underlying condition. If you have severe arthritis, significant joint deformity or are unsure what support is best for you, it is wise to discuss this with a GP or physiotherapist.

Can these gloves stop Raynaud’s attacks completely?

No glove can guarantee that Raynaud’s episodes will never occur. These gloves are designed to help reduce some of the common triggers, such as sudden cold air on bare fingers, wind chill at the wrists and cold, damp fabric against the skin. By keeping the hands warmer and better protected, many people feel they cope better with winter conditions. They work best alongside other sensible measures, such as dressing warmly, avoiding very rapid temperature changes where possible and following any medical advice you have been given.

How should I wash and care for the gloves?

For best results, wash the gloves in cool or lukewarm water with a mild detergent and allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid very hot water, bleach or high‑heat drying, as these can shorten the life of the fabric and affect flexibility over time. Turning the gloves inside out before washing can help remove any build‑up from the inner lining where they contact your skin. With normal care and regular gentle washing, they are designed to withstand many winter seasons while maintaining their warmth and comfort.

Will they work with my running watch or fitness tracker?

The gloves are designed with a slim cuff and touchscreen‑compatible fingertips so you can use most watches, fitness trackers and smartphones without fully removing them. In practice, many people can start and stop activities, check routes and adjust basic settings while keeping their hands largely covered. If your watch strap is very tight, you may wish to loosen it slightly so it can sit comfortably over or under the glove cuff.

Bringing it all together

If winter usually means numb, painful or stiff hands the moment you step outside, it is easy to lose confidence in running, walking or training through the colder months. Simple things such as gripping a dog lead, using poles, holding handlebars, fastening zips or checking a route on your phone can quickly become a struggle when your fingers refuse to cooperate in the cold.

RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves are designed to change that experience. By combining a slim, flexible fit with a layered thermal lining, a waterproof outer and wind‑blocking cuffs, they help keep more warmth around your fingers and joints, shield your hands from wind and damp, and reduce how often you need to expose bare skin to the cold. Touchscreen‑compatible fingertips and a breathable construction mean you can keep moving, adjust kit and use your phone or sports tech with far fewer glove‑off moments, which is especially important if your hands are prone to Raynaud’s‑type reactions, chilblains, arthritis‑related stiffness, neuropathy or simply “giving up” early in winter conditions.

Whether you live with a diagnosed condition such as Raynaud’s, inflammatory arthritis or diabetes‑related hand problems, or you simply know that your fingers suffer more than most in the cold, these gloves offer a practical way to support your hands so you can focus more on your activity and less on how your fingers will cope. Alongside sensible winter clothing and any advice from your GP or physiotherapist, they provide extra help for your hands in cold, wet and windy weather.

With the 30‑day comfort guarantee, you can test RevitaFit Winter Thermal Gloves in your own routine and in real UK winter weather, knowing you can return them if they are not the right fit for you. That way, you can make a decision based on how your own hands feel on your runs, walks, commutes and outdoor sessions, rather than on descriptions alone.

We want our customers to be completely satisfied with their purchases, so if for any reason you are not happy with your product, you can return it within 30 days for a full refund.

To ensure a smooth and easy return process, please make sure that the item is in its original condition and packaging. We cannot accept returns for items that have been used or damaged. The customer is responsible for the cost of returning the item, but if the product was faulty or damaged upon arrival, we will cover the postage and packaging costs.

If you simply ordered the wrong size, no need to worry. We will happily exchange the item for the correct size free of charge.

Please note that returning an item does not affect your rights as a consumer. If you have any questions or concerns about our returns policy, please do not hesitate to contact us.

To initiate a return, please send your item along with a note containing your order number to our address: RevitaFit UK, 81 Highfield Lane, Waverley, Rotherham, S60 8AL. We will process your return as soon as possible and issue your refund within 7-10 business days.
