Product Overview
The Result Winter Essentials Pattern Thinsulate glove is a sophisticated solution for those who require dependable warmth without the burden of excessive bulk. Constructed with a classic 6 gauge knit, these gloves offer a traditional aesthetic that belies their technical interior. By incorporating genuine 3M Thinsulate technology, these gloves provide a high level of thermal retention in a lightweight format, making them an ideal companion for the unpredictable British winter. Whether you are navigating a site inspection or commuting in freezing temperatures, these gloves ensure your dexterity remains intact while the cold is kept firmly at bay.
Key Features
3M Thinsulate Insulation: This industry-standard insulation traps air molecules between you and the outside world, providing exceptional warmth while allowing moisture to escape, ensuring your hands stay dry and comfortable.
Brushed Interior Lining: The soft-to-the-touch lining provides an additional layer of comfort and thermal insulation, preventing the irritation often associated with coarser knitwear.
Comfort Stretch Fabric: The inclusion of stretch properties ensures the gloves contour to the hand, providing a secure fit that does not restrict movement or circulation.
Traditional 6 Gauge Knit: This specific knit density provides a sturdy, substantial feel that stands up to the rigours of daily use while maintaining a professional appearance.
Design & Performance
Performance in cold weather is dictated by the ability to manage heat and moisture simultaneously. These gloves utilise a multi-layer approach to achieve this. The outer shell is crafted from 100% acrylic, chosen for its durability and resistance to the elements. Inside, the 3M Thinsulate layer works as the primary thermal barrier. Because it is highly efficient, the gloves remain relatively thin, allowing for better grip and movement than standard woollen alternatives.
The unisex design is intentionally versatile, featuring a patterned finish that coordinates seamlessly with the R350X and R356X range. This ensures a unified look for teams who require a consistent professional image throughout the winter months. Despite their lightweight feel, the construction is robust, designed to withstand the friction of daily wear without losing shape or thermal efficiency.
Why No Customisation?
While some items in our range are perfect for branding, we provide these Thinsulate gloves as non-customised items to protect their technical integrity. Applying embroidery to a knit of this gauge can disrupt the delicate 3M Thinsulate membrane and the brushed lining, potentially creating 'cold spots' where the insulation has been compressed or pierced. By supplying these as-is, we ensure that the thermal performance and the stretch of the glove remain exactly as the manufacturer intended.
Use Cases
These gloves are specifically designed for professionals who spend significant time outdoors but require more finesse than a heavy-duty industrial work glove provides. They are perfect for transport and logistics personnel, site supervisors, and security staff. They also serve as an excellent addition to a corporate winter uniform or as a practical gift for staff during the colder quarters.
Why MyWorkwear

Operating from our base in Telford, we have spent nearly half a century refining our knowledge of what makes apparel truly fit for purpose. We don't just sell clothing; we provide expertise. Our selection process is rigorous, ensuring that every item, like these Thinsulate gloves, meets the high standards our customers have come to expect over the decades.
Practical Advice
Sizing is straightforward, with a range from S/M to L/XL. When choosing your size, remember that a glove that is too tight will actually make your hands colder by restricting blood flow. We recommend a fit that allows for a small pocket of air between your fingertips and the end of the glove, as this air acts as additional insulation. If you find yourself frequently removing gloves to use touchscreens, consider these as part of a layering system with liners if needed, though the 3M Thinsulate usually provides ample warmth on its own.
Caring for your product
To maintain the thermal properties of the 3M Thinsulate and the soft texture of the brushed lining, it is important to follow sensible care routines. Excessive heat is the enemy of synthetic fibres like acrylic and polyester; washing at high temperatures can cause the fibres to shrink or lose their elasticity, resulting in a glove that no longer fits correctly.
We recommend a gentle wash and allowing the gloves to air dry naturally. Using a tumble dryer can damage the delicate Thinsulate structure, reducing its ability to trap heat effectively. Furthermore, avoid the use of harsh bleaches or chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the fabric strength over time, leading to premature wear and pilling of the outer knit.
