Exclusive innovation
MP+ Gloves: Waterproof, breathable, touchscreen-compatible
The problem with classic waterproof gloves: either waterproof but not touchscreen-compatible (you have to take them off for phone/GPS), or touchscreen-compatible but not waterproof (wet hands = cold). The TRAIL TOUCH MP+ gloves solve this dilemma.
How does it work? 3 smart layers: outer layer polyamide/polyester abrasion resistance, MP+ 10K/10K polyurethane membrane waterproofness + breathability, inner layer polyester/polyamide warmth + softness. Touchscreen-compatible index finger + thumb for all screens.
Why is it revolutionary? 10,000 Schmerber waterproofing (hands stay dry even in heavy rain), 10,000 MVTR breathability (no sauna effect), touchscreen index + thumb, 3D non-slip pads, 35g per glove ultra-lightweight.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why wear sunglasses in trail running?
Why wear sunglasses in trail running?
Wearing sunglasses while trail running is essential to protect your eyes from several challenges: intense sunlight, UV rays at high altitude, reflections on snow or rock, dust, wind, or splashes (dirt, sand, etc.). Suitable glasses also help reduce eye strain, improve running comfort, and increase safety by maintaining good visibility on the trail, whatever the surroundings.
In which situations are photochromic lenses 1-3 or category 3 preferable?
In which situations are photochromic lenses 1-3 or category 3 preferable?
Category 3 lenses are especially suitable for outings in full sunlight, at high altitude, on snow, or on very bright terrain: they provide strong light filtering to protect the eyes from UV rays and glare.
Photochromic 1-3 lenses are the versatile option: they adjust automatically to the brightness, making them very handy for trails with changing weather or quick shifts in light exposure (forest, mountain, shaded/sunny areas). This adaptability makes them a good choice for long outings or ultras, where conditions can change greatly.
How to choose between a cap, a beanie, or a headband?
How to choose between a cap, a beanie, or a headband?
- The cap is ideal for outings in warm weather: it shields from the sun, reduces glare, and allows good airflow. Some models are ultra-light and breathable, designed to dry quickly.
- The woollen hat is recommended for outings in cold weather or at high altitude: it retains heat while wicking away moisture.
- The headband, more minimal, protects the ears from the wind or soaks up sweat. It’s a good choice for between seasons or for strenuous efforts when you want to keep your head cool while staying protected.
Are Raidlight gloves suitable for long-distance trail running?
Are Raidlight gloves suitable for long-distance trail running?
Yes, Raidlight gloves are designed to meet the demands of trail running, even over long distances: stretchy, breathable, and compatible with the use of poles as well as touchscreens (depending on the models), they offer an excellent balance between warmth, lightness, and skillfulness.
We also offer two waterproof models, including the ULTRALIGHT MP+® 20K/20K overgloves, ultra-compact and technical, which meet the mandatory equipment criteria for ultras such as the UTMB®. Perfect as a complement to light gloves to face changing weather conditions.
In what situations should a survival blanket be used?
In what situations should a survival blanket be used?
The survival blanket is essential in case of injury, extreme cold, or prolonged waiting at high altitude. It helps retain body heat, reduce the risk of hypothermia, or make you visible during a search. Ultra-light and compact, it fits into all bags. All Raidlight models meet the requirements of official races.
