Heat and Adaptation
In developing the W-Skin gloves, Samshield followed the same strategy as in the development of the first gloves (V-Skin): analyzing existing products on the market and surveying a large number of riders. All riders responded that they would like Samshield winter gloves that provide better protection against the cold while maintaining the hand-horse connection, fit, and elegance. The W-Skin gloves were designed to offer a perfect combination of warmth, feel, fit, and elegance.

Protection and Flexibility
The W-Skin gloves are made from five different materials to provide high performance and protection against the cold:

• 1st Layer: Goat leather: offers the best ratio of comfort, durability, wind and water resistance, and elegance;
• 2nd Layer: Thinsulate®: breathable, moisture-repellent synthetic microfiber with high insulation properties by trapping cold air molecules;
• 3rd Layer: Microfleece: as warm as wool, but softer, lighter, and easier to wash. Water-repellent for better sweat control;
• Palm: Reinforced suede with real silicone strips: provides exceptional grip, perfect hand-horse connection, flexibility, and high durability;
• Reinforced windproof mesh fabric that offers flexibility for top comfort and a perfect fit.
