The Buffalo Systems DP Mitts are a classic. They keep your hand warm and
dry in the foulest weather, they pack down incredibly small and weigh
next to nothing. Whether you are walking into a Scottish winter route,
trekking the Pennine Way or watching your local team on a Saturday
afternoon everyone should have at least one pair in their kit bag.
How does the Buffalo DP Pertex & Pile System Work?
The Buffalo DP System
To be comfortable in adverse conditions you need to be dry and warm. The concept behind the Buffalo DP System is to keep the wearer comfortable no matter what nature has in store.
Moisture causes chilling – so rain and perspiration need to be kept away from the skin. To do this clothing must repel moisture from the outside, whilst eliminating it on the inside.
Whilst insulating the wearer from the cold, our pile fabric lining wicks moisture away from the body onto the outer shell. This densely woven fabric then disperses the moisture over its surface area, where it evaporates.
In turn a micro climate is created within the garment – where overheating is controlled through the venting of side zips.
Technical Help
What do you wear under a Buffalo DP Shirt?
Ideally, nothing. A base layer will trap perspiration and the resulting dampness will reduce your body temperature and make you feel cold. In extreme conditions this could lead to hypothermia.
Are Gloves or Mitts warmer?
Mitts will be warmer in colder conditions as there is less surface area for heat to escape and your fingers will keep each other warm as well. With a mitt its also easier to add some form of liner glove to increase warmth as well.
What are the best gloves for Raynaud’s or poor circulation?
When someone has Raynauds or poor circulation, the body will struggle to warm up especially around fingers and toes.
The best advice we can offer is go for a good pair of Mitts that are both waterproof and insulated. But have the additional layer of a silk liner glove.
A silk liner glove reflects the heat as well as spreading over areas, giving you a much better performance in keeping warm. You may also find that an electric heated glove or mitt will also help.
