We love these multi coloured fingerless gloves as they keep hands so toasty, while adding a sense of stylish fun to your winter wardrobe. Created in the popular fingerless design so your fingers/hands are free to still use your mobile or drink a cup of coffee 🙂
Features:
Possum Merino is a unique New Zealand yarn made from blending natures finest, Possum fur and Merino lamb’s wool.
Possum fibre has a hollow core that traps air and thus gives excellent insulation with an extremely high warmth to weight ratio. When blended with fine Merino, it creates a luxuriously soft, lightweight garment with low pilling properties and superior fibre strength. Research has shown it to be 55% warmer than Merino alone and 35% warmer than cashmere.
The use of Possum fibre in New Zealand benefits our environment by contributing to the effort to protect our native forest and birds.
The brushtail Possum was introduced to New Zealand in 1837, it is a natural predator and an ecological threat. Each night possums eat over 21,000 tons of native vegetation. In addition to this they compete for food with native birds, also eating the birds eggs, chicks and insects. The commercial use of possum fur fibre is encouraged by conservation groups and plays an important role in the protection of New Zealand’s native fuana, flora and wildlife.
Your purchase not only means that you have acquired a unique garment that will give you years of pleasure, but also that you have contributed to the preservation of New Zealand’s natural habitats, an environmentally sound choice.
Possum Merino knitwear is very easy care. It is naturally odour resistant so requires less washing, which is kinder on you, and the environment.
When washing is required, please refer to your garment care label for specific washing instructions.
Gentle hand wash in cool water using a small amount of mild wool detergent.

It feels so lovely on, soft with no itchiness, the colours are true to the picture (seafoam) but look even nicer. I shall buy a couple more for family. Unexpectedly fast delivery too.

I bought five pairs of these gloves, one for each of our four family members plus one pair for my son’s girlfriend. They are very good and we plan to use them during this winter’s trips in the snowy mountains in California, the U.S.A.
