Interesting tech for regulating body temperature.  It appears as if the only some end consumer products at the moment that has  [Dolph] applications are Jockey's Staycool line.

Also here as base layer shirts, etc.:  https://mykool.us/product-category/apparel/ (https://mykool.us/product-category/apparel/)

Triumph is using it in their  [Dolph] gear.

Yamaha  [Dolph] winter gear.

Wigwam ski socks.

Lee Parks has been using the material in his DeerSport PCi (http://www.leeparksdesign.com/catalog_product_detail.asp?cat=530-3637&product=148851) gloves for a few years.

I have had a pair for a couple years, but only starting using them more often this season.

In the spring they kept me warm (originally purchased as cold weather gloves) and now that it is warmer they keep my hands cool.

It's amazing.

No more trying to pull my hands out of sweaty leather gloves.   [thumbsup]

Definitely worth the $ in my book.

Thanks DD, I've been researching new gloves to replace my old Held's and these look worth checking out.

interesting stuff.  anyone know if there are any other phase change gloves available?  specifically with a higher temperature range?  It rarely gets to 30 here, and generally 40-90

I have been solely wearing my Lee Parks Pci gloves since pulling them out this spring.

So far they have seen temps in and above the range you are wondering about.

Never did my hands feel too hot or sweaty.

One on my favorite qualities is that the gloves are lined with a supper soft almost micro fleece liner that doesn't stick your skin, so they slid on and off real easy even if your hands are sweaty.

cool (PI), thank you.  When I saw the 30-75 range on the website I balked.  I wish the shorties came with the outlast too.
