Sealskinz Griston Lightweight Waterproof Gloves - Black

Wet paths. Steady grip. Keep moving.

Rain in the forecast does not have to mean wet hands. Sealskinz Griston lightweight waterproof gloves combine three-layer weather protection with a PU palm for grip and control. A straightforward option for men and women looking for waterproof hiking gloves without the bulk of heavy winter handwear.

Pull them on for a damp morning walk, adjust your pack at the trailhead and head for the hills. The lightweight design keeps your kit practical, while waterproof construction helps protect your hands when the weather turns.

What they help solve

• Wet hands on rainy walks: waterproof three-layer construction provides a barrier against water.
• Grip when handling kit: the PU palm adds grip and control for everyday outdoor tasks.
• Bulky handwear on milder days: a lightweight alternative when heavy insulation is more than you need.
• Muddy outings and regular use: machine-washable construction makes care straightforward. Follow the product care label.

Run, hike, climb: choose the right use

Hiking and hillwalking: their clearest role. Use these lightweight waterproof gloves for wet trails and changeable days when you want hand coverage and a grippy palm.

Running: consider your pace and temperature before choosing waterproof handwear. Check that the fit and warmth work for you, and adjust your layers as your effort rises.

Climbing: think approach walks and handling your pack between climbs. A PU grip palm does not make these specialist climbing, belay or rope-handling gloves.

Mountaineering: waterproofing is only part of the picture. Match insulation and dexterity to your route, and do not rely on lightweight gloves alone for severe cold or technical winter terrain.

AEC field advice

Check the fit by making a fist and moving each finger before heading out. Position your jacket sleeves and glove cuffs so rain is not directed into the openings. For longer hill days, carry spare dry handwear and choose enough insulation for the forecast, not just waterproof protection.
