Thinking some kind of overglove or mitten might help. I have Reynolds so get very cold hands & often use chemical hand warmers for long runs

Surrey Phil Feb 2021 11:31pm, 7 Feb 2021 5,733 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil I wear relatively inexpensive Ron Hill gloves if below 5 degrees. My hands really feel the cold even if the rest of me is warm. I may wear a second pair if necessary but unlikely.

Fitz Feb 2021 8:14am, 8 Feb 2021 2,368 posts	Quote Pin Fitz I have Sealskinz ones, don't remember what I paid but it's unlikely they were cheap - Sealskinz stuff never is. I think I got them in Cotswold Outdoor or maybe Snow+Rock. Warm enough without being overly bulky, touchscreen friendly, the only drawback is that they're not quite as breathable as I'd like. Not a problem if they stay on but if I wear them for a while, then get too hot and stuff them in a pocket, then later get cold and put them back on, the retained moisture inside the gloves can be a bit cold!
