 "summary": "A grid-fleece glove with a stowable silicone-coated Cordura mitt that flips over the fingers; iRunFar picks it as the best convertible for runs that start cold and warm up. The mitt adds a wind and wet barrier, though steady rain can seep in from the palm side.",

 "not_for": "Sustained rain or the coldest days, when an insulated mitten is the better tool.",
 "downsides": [
  "No silicone grip on the inner glove",
  "Touchscreen response is only average",
  "Water can get in through the palm side in steady rain"
