PatPux Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I'm going for these http://www.blazewear.com/featured/x1-liners.html And these http://www.flysussex.com/fly-gin-winter ... loves.html, which both Col Borland and SW use, I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 The Gin ones in the second link are amazing! SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdEves Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Bought the Gin winter ones on Simon's recommendation and they are very good indeed. Although they seem like skiing gloves they aren't actually bulky but they are incredibly warm. Use the App. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george1966 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 I have seen them on the link so thank you all for your quick response, the sizes on the link specify small med and extra large how do I know what size would be suitable I can count out small and med but was wondering if a large is available but not in stock or if it jumps from med to xl I got fairly big hands but they re not shovels.

PatPux Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Are these the sort of thing that will be for sale at the show at the end of November, be nice to be able to see some suits, gloves and things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 All in stock now as winter is close by.. I used my Heated inners the other day with just my mac wet's for two hours free flying and my hands were toasty!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinpa Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I have a pair of the Blaze wear pro gloves and they were useless with the supplied batteries. So I've replaced them with 7.4v lipo batteries and they are toasty now. They actually get too warm sometimes and you have to turn them off.

The x1s liners linked above come with 7.4v lipos as standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 On the Max heat setting the lipo's will last around 2.5 hours in the X1 inners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgy, I'm looking at the Gin Alpine gloves. I normally take a medium to large gloves. The measurement around my palm is 9" ... What size should I order?

AdEves Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Rob, if it helps I measured 9" too and the Large ones are perfect for me. Use the App. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myusername Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I have a pair of Haglof Helix gloves and find them great for paramotoring. Very cosy. Not so good for hanggliding. I think the Helix 2 are out now. http://www.viladomat.com/faces/store/fi ... milia=2655 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
