SPONSORED: Freehands 'Keep In Touch' Gloves

Before I begin, I would like to officially thank Freehands for mailing two pairs of gloves to me.  They are really efficient in communicating and friendly.  Also fast on delivering their product.  Freehands is a New York based company.  I highly recommend their gloves to fellow photographers/photojournalists.

Having warm hands when photographing in -18C (plus windchill) is a blessing.  There might not be a need to carry packs of hand warmers.  The hassle of removing and wearing gloves when shooting in sub-zero temperatures.




Mens Softshell Photo Gloves

Personally, I like the feel of the material on this glove better than the 'Mens Stretch Glove'.  It fitted my hands much more comfortably.  These gloves sells for $35 USD.

I like the zip pocket idea.  You can definitely store a few flash cards when you are on-location shooting.

I love the magnetic flip back on the index finger and thumb caps.  Otherwise, it will be flapping around and in the way when shooting.

40 grams of Thinsulate Insulation.  These gloves sells for $30 USD.

One thing, I am unsure of is the warmness of these gloves?  As I haven't had a chance of testing out these gloves in the cold/snow yet.  I will update this post once I have fully tested it out.  I also want to test the grip on these two gloves.
