[Closed] Gloves + iPhone

There are a pair of archery gloves I saw in Canada - windstopper and removable fore finger thingy that would work I think

Can't find anything online but I saw them only 2 weeks ago

Interestingly, I tried with a pair of Specialised Enduros and they worked okay - don't know if its the leather on the fingers that does the job.

Failing that, apparently you can transform any pair of gloves by stitching some silver thread through the finger tips which will give the required effect.

my gloves work fine, castelli road ones, even had a pair of undergloves on today too, no problem at all

North face do some that might suit, they look a bit like the sealskins windproof ones, they are specifically for using iphone etc. called the etip

Can you not live without your MEMEMEPhone while riding?

My phone lives in my bag/pocket when I ride, as I'd rather be riding than on the phone.

Using it as a bar mounted gps maybe?

Fair point, Warton.

i BELIEVE they work off heat.

so something thin
or metal thread in the tips (to transfer heat)
or give your nuts a good scratch first?
or use your nose.

Used full finger ones today with my epicawesomephone worked just fine. Not sure the brand or owt had them ages.

Oh and Captain I was using as an iPod, gps and cycle computer. Oh and a phone thanks to the mrs calling me.

They are resistive touch screens, not heat sensitive

Or are they capacitive, dont know, but either way not heat sensitive

I just use my nose

buy some endura gloves and when the end of the fingers split after a couple of rides you'll be able to use the touchscreen.

Can reccommend The North Face Etip gloves, but not for the bike, they work perfect with the iPhone, but they wore out very fast in the recent weather. They were great when i was just running (broken wrist) but once i got back on the bike i had no gloves due to ripping them in the crash so wore the eTip's and the silver tip wore out very fast and it is now hit or miss whether they work, however they are not really designed for the bike, and i took my chances, lifetime guarentee though so ill try my luck with that.

I find my normal gloves work once I've got a sweat on. Otherwise, I've got quite good at using my nose too.

Yes, the iPhone is a capacitive touch screen. My Sombrio ones have little pads on the ends of the index and middle fingers that work, although after many washes they are not as good as they were.

My endura strike winter gloves have worked fine for the last 3 years.

i have a pair of sixsixone gloves that work absolutly fine on the iphone. on the basis that there seem to be a lot of options, my suggestion would be, take the phone to your lbs and try some

Fox don't work, unless you press really hard, and even then only sometimes

Haha, I thought I'd be the only one to use my nose on my phone!! 😆

I only really use it to unlock my Desire though, I haven't mastered a text message yet.
