Gloves

If you will be traveling during cooler months, even early spring and late fall, having some type of gloves may be a good idea. Of course during winter travels gloves are a must have item.

There are many different styles of gloves to consider, each having different features.  Gloves are small, lightweight, packable and take up little room in you pack.

If you are looking for something windproof and waterproof, fleece gloves are probably not the way to go.  Search for cycling or running gloves.

You should be able to find gloves relatively inexpensive, around $20-$30.

We have listed a couple glove examples but we recommend that you shop around to find something you like.  Fleece gloves can be found almost anywhere while you may have to visit your local sports stores to try on and sample running and cycling gloves.
