Whether you are an avid skier or just someone trying to survive a New York winter unscathed, we’re getting to that time of the year when venturing outdoors with naked fingers is pure agony. Not only is it time to dust off your winter coats, sweaters, and boots, but also to start stocking up on winter gloves. It’s a good idea to just go ahead and buy a variety of pairs so you’re not caught bare-handed in the freezing winds.
To help find the best winter gloves out there, we spoke with stylists and outdoor experts to get their picks. From everyday wool pairs and leather ones for much needed drama to even a heavy-duty waterproof pair for snow-day activities and plenty that work with a touchscreen (of course, since we’re all addicted to our phones), here are 21 pairs to consider buying before it’s too late.
Uniqlo Cashmere Knitted Gloves
$40
If you’re unsure where to begin when it comes to gloves, a solid cashmere pair will not steer you wrong. This pair features wide ribbing for easy styling and comes in eight colors for lots of options. The only downside with cashmere is that it requires dry cleaning, but your warm hands will thank you later.

Outdoor writer Ebony Roberts loves these gloves for their practicality and warmth, plus they are tech-friendly. “They’re a big step up from cheap knit gloves that are slippery, get soaked with wet snow, and leave your hands cold. The Etips are fleece-lined without being bulky, so they’re perfect for chilly early-morning dog walks, running errands, or hitting up the playground with my son,” Roberts says. “The partial palm grips are useful but not too sticky, and they can be clipped together when not in use, which is great because over the two seasons I’ve worn them, I haven’t lost one yet.” Deputy style editor Joanna Nikas also has them and agrees, adding that they are not too bulky and look sleek.

While fashion editor Bella Gerard used to go out of her way to avoid gloves, she told the Cut that lately the aesthetic outweighs the impracticality and she’s ready to lean all the way in. Her favorites? The Seymoure Classic Runway Gloves. “Sex and the City stylist Patricia Fields is a fan, and the supple Italian leather and great fit won me over the first time I tried them on,” she says.

$1,350
Stylist Tori López has been eyeing these Prada leather gloves for a while now and is almost ready to purchase. “The glove itself is very practical — made of lustrous nappa leather to keep your hands warm despite it also having an impractical pouch that might fit nothing but some loose change,” she says. “This juxtaposition immediately had me sold. They come in multiple colorways, but the black will surely go with any coat of your choosing.”
