The gloves
Named after the highest mountain in Tyrol, the gloves are particularly robust and warm according to the manufacturer. The robustness is ensured by goatskin on the palms and the inside of the fingers and resistant stretch material on the outside of the hand. The insulating filling is made from Tyrolean sheep's wool - the emphasis is on regionality - which keeps you warm and, thanks to the antibacterial properties known from merino underwear, also smells less than synthetic fibres. The cuffs are quite large for finger gloves and go well over the wrist. You therefore tend to wear the cuffs over the jacket, not the other way round. I've only ever had this with warm mittens, my gloves were usually much thinner. The cuffs can be fastened with a drawstring. A sewn-in elasticated band at the wrist ensures a good fit. The gloves have a clip that can be used to attach them together and have no other eye-catching features. They are available in all black or in black with light brown leather.
