Top 5 Cold-Resistant Gloves 2024

2 January 2024

Cold weather is never far away, so you'll need to prepare your hands from the worst of the change. Cold-resistant gloves come in all shapes and sizes; some use a palm coating to provide grip in slippery conditions, others have a full liner that prevents water from reaching your skin, and the rest have a focus on flexibility and dexterity for carrying items in and out of a freezer.

Here at SafetyGloves.co.uk, we've made sure that we stock them all. To help you refine and make an informed choice, we've collated what we believe are Our Best Cold-Resistant Gloves. With winter on the way, we hope that this blog will ensure that you keep warm through the entire season.

Cold-Resistant Gloves: What Am I Looking For?

The two things that you need to take into consideration before purchase is what you are using the gloves for, and what level of protection you need. For example, if you are handling frozen food, then using a dexterous grippy glove might be the best choice. Alternatively, if you are working outdoors in freezing sub-zero weather, a thick and durable pair of gloves might be the option for you.

The second thing you need to be aware of is EN 511, which tests a gloves resistance to air cold, contact cold and water. For the first two, a level between 1 and 4 will be awarded, with level 4 being the best and level 1 being the lowest. For water, a level between 0 and 1 will be awarded, with level 1 meaning that a glove is waterproof and level 0 meaning that it isn't.

Our Top 5 Cold-Resistant Thermal Gloves

Now that we've got to grips with the different standards and glove types, it is time to choose the gloves for you. To make it a little easier we've narrowed it down by type and task, ensuring that you can quickly find the pair of thermal gloves that's best for your industry. Without further ado, we begin with our best selling cold-resistant gloves.

Ejendals Tegera 297 Insulated Waterproof Work Gloves

Our Best Thick Cold-Resistant Work Gloves

While the 295 Gloves are warm and dry, they don't provide too much thickness.

With a thicker coating, comes more durability, as evidenced by a customer base that includes cyclists, quad bikers and climbers. Ultimately, these gloves offer the same waterproof, -30°C coating as the 295's, only with a thicker coat.
