Why Choose the Gothic Glove?
The Arc'teryx Gothic Glove is a lightweight liner made for cool-weather adventures. Made from a soft, breathable merino wool blend with elastane, it ensures warmth, moisture-wicking, and odor resistance. Its next-to-skin fit and touchscreen-compatible thumb and forefinger make it ideal as a standalone glove for trail runs and hikes or a liner for snowboarding gloves. It's a great all-arounder that's perfect for a variety of outdoor activities. Designed for dexterity over durability, it has a great warmth-to-weight ratio and is almost always packed in my carry-on.

How I Use the Arc'teryx Gothic Glove
- Hiking and Running: For trail runs, the Gothic Glove’s lightweight warmth keeps my hands comfortable in cool weather, with touchscreen pads for phone use. As a liner under ski mittens, it adds insulation without bulk. On hikes, its breathability prevents clammy hands, and the odor-resistant wool keeps them fresh for days. In the city, they’re stylish for chilly commutes, pairing well with casual outfits. I use it solo on milder days above 35 degrees, or easily layer it under a thicker glove like the Fission when it's colder. Some compare it to the Arc'teryx Rho Glove.
