Range Gloves
The North Face Range Gloves are full-finger cold-weather gloves with a knit-texture backhand, a smooth woven shell, and an elasticized wrist cuff with an adjustment cord and toggle at the edge. They are built for warmth and dexterity in cold conditions, using a polar fleece lining and genuine leather reinforced palm and thumb-base patches for grip and durability. Etip technology on the index finger and thumb tips allows use of touch-screen devices without removing the gloves.

Checking your phone without taking the gloves off
Touchscreen-compatible fingertips let you handle quick tasks on your phone — snapping a photo or a simple screen tap — while wearing these leather-palm gloves. Reviews note they're best suited to minimal operations rather than accurate typing, since the gloves limit dexterity and can hit more than one character at once.[1,2]
Warm-lined everyday gloves
These gloves are lined with polar fleece for warmth, making them a pick for keeping your hands warm in cold conditions.[2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Range Gloves: Choose these if you want warm, everyday cold-weather gloves with touchscreen convenience: they feature a warm polar fleece lining, a genuine leather reinforced palm, goat leather coating, and Etip technology compatible with touch-screen devices. One reviewer found they work well enough for minimal phone operations like using the camera, but texting accurately is difficult, as the gloves limit movement and can hit multiple characters at once. They come in Black in sizes Small through X-Large, with a knit backhand and an adjustment cord and toggle on the cuff.[1,2,3] | Etip Recycled Fibres Gloves: Choose these if you want thin-but-warm gloves for casual winter outings and cold-weather phone use, since every finger has Etip touchscreen technology (though one reviewer found accurate texting difficult) and the recycled fleece lining feels plush. The windproof, waterproof recycled-fibre construction and textured grip dots suit everyday wear, but note that reviewers report the anti-slip palm coating peeling off after a few wears, reducing grip. The fit runs slightly large for some wearers, so consider sizing down if you are between sizes.[1,4,5,6] |
