Raynaud’s sufferers! Best waterproof gloves?

12 replies

Just that really. I want warm hands this winter! Help!

Waterproof and ideally gloves that means I can actually use my hands… but I don’t know if all those things go together?

I wear two layers of gloves. Sealskinz waterproof mittens on top of thin cashmere gloves from JL.

cheap acrylic fingerless gloves under fleecy or sometimes neoprene gloves here. I add think silk gloves underneath the fingerless gloves on coldest days, cold cycle rides.

This isn't what you are looking for, but the prescribed medication 'nifedipine' is the only thing that worked for me.
I acquired knowledge of it on here of all places and it is very, very helpful!

For me it's mittens. Of any kind.

My fingers and toes have to be 'free' or it's worse. Socks can be worse than bare feet. I can't wear gloves with fingers.

I wear cheap disposable plastic gloves under Sealskins. They were £50 but worth every penny

Thank you for all these! I’d love any links to any specific brilliant ones! I’m looking up brands like Sealskinz now!

Sealskins have several kinds, the equestrian ones are a bit more refined.

I've got some waterproof gloves in my amazon basket, very normal looking ones and quite cheap . Worth a look on there.

I had awful headache and head spinning on nefidipine. Everyone is different of course but I decided the raynauds was the lesser of 2 evils!

Yes, that is very true, thank you for replying :-)

No, I personally don't have any side effects... very, very lucky!
