Use your iPhone in the winter without freezing your fingers thanks to Freehands

Created by Josh Rubin, the New York City-based founder of CoolHunting, Freehands are a brilliant and stylish accessory for everyone wanting to use their iPhone on icy days, without freezing your digits off. Together with his father, who oddly enough manufactures and sells gloves, the two realized the ‘glove-or-phone’ conundrum over dinner, quickly sketching out and brainstorming affordable, stylish and functional gloves for the mobile worker.

Available in fleece or leather, Freehands are the perfect gift for your iLove this Christmas, even if they use a Blackberry or other mobile device.
