About FIBREHEAT®
Four founders. One cold-hands problem.
FibreHeat® began with four founders from electrical and textile engineering, fashion design and business development, and one question: could a fabric keep cold hands warm without a battery?
Where we started
Most performance fabrics are built for athletes: wick the sweat, cut the weight. We wondered what a heat-generating fabric could do for people whose hands and feet are always cold.
Gloves came first. We tested them in a refrigerated room with sensors on each hand, two gloves worn side by side, and FIBREHEAT® gloves outperformed everything we put them up against.
How we make them
Our knit gloves are made on high-tech knitting machines that work almost like 3D printing. They come off the machine needing next to no finishing: no sewing, and no seams.
For people with cold hands it has always been a trade-off between style and warmth. We wanted gloves that look like gloves, in merino, cashmere and leather, not like a medical device.
Who we make them for
Everyone who runs cold, and especially people living with Raynaud’s, scleroderma, arthritis, lupus and other circulation problems. We’re a proud sponsor of the Raynaud’s Association.
