Staying warm through winter is key, but for tech junkies, keeping connected to your favorite devices is even more important. While texting addicts once had to remove their gloves and face the season’s bitter chill just to send a message, some phones such as the Galaxy Note 3 allow you to text through cloth. However, if your phone doesn’t have this feature, there are now a plethora of winter gloves that will interact just fine with a touchscreen. Whether you’re a professional snowboarder or are seeking the finest in snow-season fashion, you’ll probably find something to like in our breakdown of the best tech-friendly gloves.
Hammacher Call Me Gloves ($79)
Being able to take a call with your gloves on is great, but what if you could do so without even touching your phone? That's Hammacher's aim with the new $79 men's and women'sCall Me gloves, which pair wirelessly with your device via Bluetooth. With a speaker in the left thumb and microphone in the left pinky, all you need to do is make the classic "call me" gesture to use your glove as a makeshift cell phone.
The left glove has buttons for answering and ending calls, and the set supports an estimated 12 hours of talk time after charging via the included USB adapter. You may look like you're talking to an imaginary friend when using these black acrylic gloves, but at least your device won't catch frostbite.
