Description

The Hands'hot K2 muffs, sold in pairs, are made of pure 700 cuin down and offer 2 windproof sides. They have nothing to do with a synthetic sleeve, primaloft style. In terms of thermal insulation, down remains the reference, with unequalled comfort!

The new version is based on the Everest sleeve principle, with a side zip, allowing the sleeves to be taken off with the forearms.
Once off, you reassemble them, close the zip on the top of your brake handle, and off you go! Once the sleeve is closed, you secure it with a small carabiner that clips onto the brake line. Childish!
The adapted shape allows to keep all the functions of the usual brake control (which remains in the sleeve in flight).

For the (very) cold-hearted, there is also the (longer) Everest version

Fly for hours, in the warmth!

Our paragliding shop offers a wide range of gloves and sleeves for paragliding. We have men's, women's and unisex gloves to suit all tastes and sizes. One of the biggest problems in paragliding is cold hands. It can cause severe pain in the fingers, making it difficult to operate the controls and accessories in flight. All too often, this causes some pilots so much pain that they have to cut short the flight. Winter and autumn are not the only seasons affected by this phenomenon. The use of paragliding gloves may also be necessary in summer and spring. It is generally estimated that there is a drop of 1°C for every 100 metres of elevation gain. Even if the temperature seems mild when you land or take off, it can be much colder in the air and at higher altitudes, forcing you to land. The best way to combat this is to use gloves. There are two main categories of gloves and muffs.

Mid-season paragliding gloves :

This type of glove is mainly used in the autumn and spring, before or just after the onset of winter temperatures. Our paragliding shop offers a wide range of transitional gloves to protect and comfort your hands. From the wrists to the tips, paragliding gloves offer both waterproof protection and insulation. The palm of the glove has a surface that provides the grip necessary for a firm hold on the flight controls. In addition, paragliding may require interaction with touch screen flight instruments. The fingers may therefore contain a tactile coating.

Winter gloves and paragliding muffs :

Winter gloves are used when mid-season gloves are no longer effective enough to reduce hand cold. Because of its thickness, it is usually used from December to late April and early May. It should keep the palm and back of the hand warm and provide good ventilation to prevent sweating. Gore-Tex fabrics and leathers are available for protection against wind and cold. There are even heated gloves ! In addition, some pilots prefer sleeves at this time of year. These not only protect against the cold, but also allow the controls used in the blanket itself to fit better.
