Flextail StretchFit 2.0 Gloves

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Excellent dexterity and reliable waterproofing make these gloves ideal for cool, wet days on the trail.

Dexshell says: 

These DexFuze waterproof gloves features single layer composite fabric, offering superb dexterity and grip control in wet conditions, without any ‘liner slippage’ hassle.

Our DEXFUZE® technology was developed in 2018. With the DEXFUZE® type of gloves on, you can trust your control and do not need to worry about any undesired movement from the handles. The gloves are also touchscreen applicable at the thumbs and index fingers.

Our Verdict

The StretchFit 2.0 gloves from DexShell are a solid pick for active use in damp conditions. The fit is close without feeling restrictive, and the bonded construction does stop the inner from twisting or bunching. I’ve found them grippy enough for poles or a camera, and they’ve kept my hands dry through persistent drizzle. The merino blend lining adds a touch of warmth, though I’d look elsewhere if sub-zero temperatures are on the cards.

The touchscreen function works fairly well, particularly for quick swipes or map checks. At 102g for a medium, they’re light enough to carry just in case and well-suited to fast-moving days when staying dry matters more than bulk insulation.
