Activeice Chroma Sun Glove

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“I started using these on desert hikes and river days where my hands were taking the most sun, and they made an immediate difference. They’re light enough that I forget I’m wearing them, but they still add grip on poles and paddles. I especially like them for all-day exposure when sunscreen alone isn’t enough.”

Hours in open terrain can quietly punish exposed skin, and that’s where the Activeice Chroma Sun Glove earns its keep. Built by Outdoor Research for hot, high-exposure environments, these gloves are designed for long days on trail, water, or rock when shade is scarce and the sun doesn’t let up. They give us reliable coverage without interfering with movement, grip, or feel.

The fingerless design preserves full dexterity for trekking poles, paddles, and scrambling, while the lightweight, breathable fabric helps regulate heat and dry quickly as conditions change. A partially recycled construction keeps weight low and comfort high, and the hook-and-loop wrist closure ensures a secure fit that stays put through constant movement. It’s simple protection that works quietly in the background when sun exposure is unavoidable.
