CES Las Vegas 2012
Though during ShowStoppers CES 2012 in Las Vegas the weather was unusally balmy many of us live in the cold and blustery parts of the continent. You find yourself standing at a bus stop with the wind whipping around you and yet you HAVE to reply to a text with your touch screen. Those 3 ply mittens or leather gloves just won’t do the job. No need to take these gloves off when you are texting knee deep a snow bank. Agloves has the solution with their touchscreen gloves named Audience Choice Winner at IFA 2011.
Unlike competitors who have conductive patches stitched at the finger tips of gloves, Agloves have put a patent pending technology that allows you to mimic the intutive motions of your hand to text, swipe and scroll like normal.
Clothing that keeps you warm in subzero temperatures and functionality have never quite gone hand-in-hand. Keeping your digits warm in the colder months essentially means slipping on gloves that make you feel like we’ve gone back in time to an era where perhaps our thumbs weren’t quite as opposable as they are today.
Mitts are no better. With a pair of your warmest mitts on, it feels like you’ve slipped on a pair of lobster claws making the most menial tasks nearly impossible it the cold winds.
To make any phone call, send any text, and take a picture of your buddy whose slipped on the ice and landed in a compromising position using your smart phone meant exposing your hands once more to the elements. A race against time to get your picture uploaded and ensures your friends utter humiliation before your fingers freeze. Until now, that is.
Algoves® has put out their winter touchscreen gloves that actually allow you’re to keep them on and work on your iPhone or touch screen phone. If like me, you’ve searched for a cold weather solution to being able to use your phone without risking frost-bite and only found the gloves that have a single finger that is usable on your screen, these gloves are the solution!
Wear them alone or slip them under your mitts and be left out in the cold to browse, text, email, and upload no more.
We’d like to see a little more glam styling to the glove itself but we have no doubt they are working on that.
Owned by an adorable daughter and mother team, Jennifer and Jean Spencer we give the Agloves, winter touchscreen gloves our Girlie Gadgets seal of approval.
