UOG TOP PICK  – These Xenon Gloves make it in to our top picks because they are so incredibly warm and light but mostly because they are so comfortable to have on.

The Xenon Gloves compliments the range by providing a superbly insulated, lightweight glove. Top quality materials and straightforward design have lead to a fantastic glove.

Rab says: 

Superlight and packable insulated glove using Pertex® Quantum fabrics & PrimaLoft® Insulation. Soft microfleece lining.

The superlight Xenon Glove offers excellent insulation in an exceptionally packable form.

Superlight and packable, the Xenon Mitt punches far above its weight. A durable Pertex® Quantum outer is used to protect PrimaLoft® Gold Insulation for welcome warmth. A soft microfleece lining makes these gloves comfortable next to your skin.

Packing away into its own stuff sack, the Xenon Glove makes an ideal liner and is perfect for less strenuous mountain activities, or throwing in your daypack, just in case.

Our Verdict

Rab’s Xenon Gloves are one of the most comfortable pair of gloves I’ve ever used. The warmth to weight ratio is amazing, as you’d expect with top quality PrimaLoft Gold Insulation, with these gloves (weighing just 66g for the large size) and they have worked really well in some bitterly cold conditions. The gloves are thin enough to be highly dexterous which allows you to do more. However, they are not touch screen compatible so you do a lot of taking off and putting back on if you need to use a smart phone or touchscreen GPS.

They have a simple elasticated cuff which I think works well enough. The palms have a durable PU covering which in creases grip but remains soft to touch. They also come with a small stuff sack so you can store them in your pocket or pack easily when they are not being used.
