Dress appropriately for the season and you'll be just fine. If you wear warm clothes that cover your arms, your hands will be warmer too. Poor bloodflow to your hands is a consequence of your core loosing too much heat; your body compensates for that by reducing bloodflow to the extremities. Warm clothing makes gloves utterly unnecessary at 10C.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoIs it possible other humans are different than you? Is it also possible the person wearing gloves at 10C was also wearing warmer clothing considering they bothered to use gloves in the first place? I also do not think it is possible to describe what one should feel at 10C without specifying the humidity.
- viraptor 5y agoDid you really try to explain dressing appropriately to someone dealing with this issue for years? Did you expect me to go "sure, I wear winter thermals sub 10C, but this random person may have a point about dressing warmer?"
- 3np 5y agoI’d say something similar but no, I think there are very few individuals who will not suffer in 10C, whatever the clothing. Being physically active makes a huge difference too. With the same clothes I can be perfectly comfortable on a promenade at the same temperature that makes my fingers hurt typing at my desk. My house is currently ~10C if I don’t activate heating. That’s miserable. My fingers get stiff and hurt a bit when at the keyboard. Even with 3 warm layers legs/4 warm layers upper. And I’m born and raised just a few miles from the Arctic circle. People around me see me as “that guy who can handle any cold” and my breaking point for comfortable sedentary is around 15C. Oh, and humidity does make a huge difference for how could absolute temperatures are experienced.
