"Momiji gloves" that you can operate smartphones and tablets with 5 fingers while wearing gloves



It is an indispensable glove for going out in the cold winter, but once you set it up, you can not handle the operation of smartphones or tablets altogether. Many of the touch panels are "Capacitance methodIt reads and reacts with the electrical change occurring on a thin film called the film, and it can only operate with fingers or those with conductivity close to it. Therefore, even if you wanted to call a bit with a smartphone on the way of commuting or walking, it was necessary to take time to remove the gloves.

However, in almost the same way as the fingers, the touch panel has reacted silver plated "Conductive thread"momiji glovesOperation is possible with wearing gloves. Gloves as a whole "Conductive threadIt is also attractive to be able to touch with five fingers.

There are three kinds of glove designs for this term, but all packages are common. It is made of paper and the logo of "momiji gloves" is at the right end.


First of all, a thin type "touch early"(2300 yen including tax). Sizes are S and M, and colors are black, chocolate, petant blue, engi, Torrington green.


I tried wearing black M. The model is a man with a height of 175 cm, the size of the hand is very average.


The fingertips look like this. "Conductive thread" is used in 5% of the whole.


Next is "with anti-slip"touch grip"(2800 yen including tax). Here as well, the size is S and M and there are 5 color variations.


On the palm side of the palm is a rubber boot made of gloves that is commonly used by gloves. Looking closely it is stylish to line up in the form of leaves of a maple.


The size of the slip is large and small, it is not attached to the fingertips so as not to disturb the touch operation.


I brought "iPhone 4". The anti-slip effect works firmly, you can grip steadily.


Finally a little thick "touch 2011"(2500 yen including tax). Here is also the same size that S and M have 5 color variations. It is made slightly thicker than "touch early".


Even if I actually attached it, I could hardly understand the difference in thickness, and the fit feeling was not much different.


The operation of the iPad is smooth. Since the touch panel responds to all five fingers, it is also possible to input using QWERTY array software keyboard.


Of course you can also enlarge and reduce with 2 fingers.


The reaction is also good with "Xperia acro".


I could also operate the touchpad on the notebook PC.


I think that I will not do such a thing, since "conductive yarn" is used for the entire glove, I can react the panel even in the lower part of the fist.


Regarding the touch feeling of the touch panel, there was no difference between the three models.

Also, actually wearing it and walking around the editorial department for about 5 minutes I did not have much warmth retaining ability, it will soften the cold. Even just walking, use of bicycles and motorbikes should be pretty tough as the wind blows and it felt cool air in your hands. Because it is knitted cotton and acrylic yarns, we can not expect warmth like a cotton-filled model.

It seems that the position to use for the day during a day without wind is just right, so I'd like to use phone or email for Sugu when walking or going around, but I can not let go of gloves.
