Spring has almost, almost sprung here in New York. The last few days have been lovely and the snow is slowly but surely disappearing. It’s definitely that odd change of season time when you’re not really sure what’s going to work in terms of layering when you’re out and about.
You already know I’m a big fan of TrailHeads products, so enter these TrailHeads Women’s Twister Running Gloves that I’ve been wearing for a couple of months now. I specifically chose this lighter-weight running glove to review, because while my hands start out freezing when I go running in the cold, they warm up quickly.
TrailHeads Twister Running Gloves Review
I wore these gloves through some of the coldest weather of the winter and was really surprised by how warm they were – just like I found out when I reviewed the TrailHeads ponytail headband, the lightweight fabric is deceptively insulating. The photo below was taken right after a run in 25 degree weather and my hands stayed toasty. 🙂
What I wasn’t expecting was that these actually worked for my everyday life as well. Now, granted, I’m a personal trainer and a mama in Brooklyn, which means a lot of walking around all day long. It’s not like I’m rocking heels and skirts or looking fancy. Plus, being this pregnant means sneakers all the time is just my go-to at this point. But with the cute, feminine pattern, these have actually been perfect for my lifestyle.
The smartphone fingertips are an especially awesome feature – I never have a freezing hand if I want to check my phone while I’m out. And let’s face it, running bloggers would be lost without the option to take a quick shot out running – whether it’s a sunrise, a selfie, or the tried and true shoes shot, we need that easy access to our phone. 😉
If you don’t Instagram the run, did it really happen??

You know I love all things TrailHeads and these gloves are no exception. You wear them well mama and you should be happy that your everyday look mirrors your work look. I have the same issue but I’m not a personal trainer anymore so what’s my excuse?? Hahaha!! And yes, have mastered the shoe shot!!

I’ve never heard of TrailHead gloves before but they look great. I’d love a pair to try out!!
Nope, if you don’t Instagram a run it didn’t happen! 🙂 I almost always take at least one picture on every run. Also, woohoo for a local company! I didn’t know TrailHeads was based in CT! Way cool.

I am part of photos during group runs, but I am not a selfie person generally. I do like to walk occasionally to get some pics of sunset and, recently, playful dolphins 🙂
I take photos, the scenery here in Colorado is beautiful!
I have a pair very similar but with pink trim – love them!!!

I’ve never taken photos on a run before!
Those gloves look amazing!
I don’t take pictures on runs but I can’t leave a cute cat or baby undocumented. Which makes for a thrilling Instagram feed, as you can probably imagine.

I only take photos if I run past a really beautiful sight
never take photos! too focused on running 🙂
I never take photos on runs (well with the exception of the Disney half marathon), but I do take photos when I am snowshoeing!

I love Trailhead gear. My long sleeve shirt kept warm all winter!
I love Trailheads products, I have a headband and a hat, they’re both great. I’ve got to give the gloves a try.
