The Heat Company Merino Liinear Pro Gloves Review
Hello my friends, this my second time that I am here to talk you about gloves, another gloves of The Heat Company . Last time The Heat Company sent my the Merino Linear Gloves were you can read my review here.
For some of you, you already know that I have a cooperation with the Heat Company, for three years which I like very much and hope to extend for many good years. This time I was contacted by the brand to know if I was interested in testing the Merino Linear Pro Gloves, and the Heat 2 Softshell gloves.
Right now we are at the peak of the solar explosions, so these are the best years to see and photograph the northern lights, and as such during these years we will always have Photodetails Workshps in northern countries, with lots of cold and snow.
I had the chance to test these gloves on my first trip to Norway and now I'm going to talk you a little bit about them, and then I'll add more photos of them at the field camp on every trip I take.

PACKAGING AND UNBOXING
This time the unboxing of the products wasn't easy, as two pairs of Gloves, Warmers, and Insoles all came in a cardboard box, as you can see in the video I made of the unboxing.
QUICK DESCRIPTION
For me, the merino gloves were enough, because I don't suffer much from cold hands, but merino is a warmer wool than normal, but the downside is that if snow falls on the gloves, as they are wool, they get all wet, because they sent me second layer gloves.
In my opinion, these gloves have some advantages over my other merino gloves, the Light Linear Merino Gloves. They are thicker, which makes my hands warmer, and they have silicone symbols printed on the underside of the glove, which helps to give them more grip.
Your first layer of protection against the elements is a wind- and water-resistant glove with Thinsulate insulation. The palm is reinforced with soft, durable goatskin, which is naturally resistant to water and wear. The extra-long knitted cuffs keep warmth inside and snow or wind outside. The loops on the fingers of the glove make it easy to take off. To find the correct size, measure the circumference of the palm at its widest point, just below the fingers.

CONCLUSION
As I've told you before, this was a very pleasant upgrade. I really like my first merino gloves, the Merino Linear Light Gloves, but I have to confess that I'm enjoying these much more, they're thicker, warmer, and have the particularity of having silicone symbols printed on the underside, which really help the glove's grip. This trip, with the addition of a second layer, everything was perfect. At no time did I feel cold in my hands, and I confess that there were very few times when I wore hand warmers, both on my feet and on my hands.
The advantage of having two layers is the versatility. I have a great example that happens to me, which I'll tell you about. The part of the versatility that I like the most is being able to ride with the merino gloves, since they are thin and have the help of the silicone symbols, if they were, for example, the heat 3, which are two in one, it wouldn't be possible. what more can I say, I'm really enjoying these gloves.
