Product detailed description

KINETIXX Folke Black, cross-country gloves

The top-tier Folke cross-country gloves from KinetiXx are unlined gloves designed for sports use. Developed in collaboration with elite biathletes, the technologies used have a positive impact both in training and in races on the cross-country track.

The glove's upper is made from wind-resistant Xx-FastDry material, protecting the hand from wind and cold. The palm features warming microfleece for comfortable wear. Additionally, the glove is elastic and highly breathable, quickly wicking moisture away to keep the hand dry and warm even in challenging conditions. The palm is equipped with Sharktec® technology, consisting of small 3D structures shaped like pyramids and volcanoes. These elements provide optimal grip, pole wrapping, and demonstrably better power transfer to the pole. The thumb includes fleece with a membrane that can absorb sweat. The wrist strap with Velcro ensures a secure fit and keeps the cold out. The wrist cutout offers enough space to keep sports watches visible. With KinetiXx Folke, every cross-country skier can enhance their individual performance on the track in the best possible way and train with gloves as powerful as those used by top biathletes.

• Upper material: Xx-FastDry

How to choose the right size cross-country gloves?

To determine the necessary size of cross-country gloves, first measure the circumference of your hand over the slightly arched knuckles using a tailor's tape measure. Measure your dominant hand - so if you're right-handed, measure your right hand; if you're left-handed, measure your left hand.

The measured circumference in centimeters corresponds to the glove size as shown in the table.

The EU glove size is given in old German inches. One German inch = 2.7cm. Thus, size 9 corresponds to a palm circumference of 24.3cm.
