Richa Ghent GTX ladies gloves in black

Richa has really come up with a great ladies glove in the Ghent GTX.  It is a full-on winter glove with a short cuff. Normally a winter glove has a longer cuff; a summer glove will have a shorter one. I have found that too many ladies jackets do not easily allow for a big winter glove to go underneath. However with this ribbed cuff, the Richa Ghent fits really easily under your sleeve. For warmth, the Ghent uses both Thinsulate and Primaloft. The waterproofing comes courtesy of Gore-Tex, and in this instance the waterproof and windproof membrane is bonded to the leather to prevent the glove from wetting out. The main knuckle is covered by a D30 soft protector. The palm consists of overlaps of leather for added abrasion resistance. The back of the hand features more of a textile material that is known as Nyspan. Concertina stretch bands at the tops of the fingers allow for easier articulation. You also get small protectors on the minor finger joints. A visor wipe is built into the left, index finger. We often find that ladies suffer from cold hands whatever the time of year. Richa has come up with a really comfortable glove in the Ghent which is also easy to put on and keep a seal under your jacket cuffs and yet doesn’t have the bulk and stiffness of many warm gloves.
