They are\u00a0knit with a thin silver thread woven in. This gives it an attractive look,<\/p>\n<p>as well as the ability to use with touchscreen devices. \u00a0Silver, or Ag, as it&#8217;s known on the Periodic Table of Elements chart, is beneficial in these<\/p>\n<p>gloves for two main reasons:<\/p>\n<p>1.) \u00a0<strong>Resistive Properties<\/strong> &#8211; Ag, or Silver, provides\u00a0\u00a0a consistent and flow of bioelectricity to your device. \u00a0Today&#8217;s touchscreens are capacitive, which means they can be controlled by reacting to the bioelectricity in your skins. \u00a0If you put on regular gloves, you cannot control your device because you skin is not exposed. \u00a0Because Silver is the most conductive element on the Periodic Element chart, it&#8217;s a natural fit \u00a0for touchscreen gloves.<\/p>\n<p>2.) \u00a0<strong>Thermal Regulator<\/strong> &#8211; Silver reflects heat back to it source, so the heat your hands create will be reflected back to your hands, making them warmer than if wearing normal knitted gloves.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Agloves sell for $17.99 through <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Agloves-screen-gloves-iPhone-texting\/dp\/B004A9QMPE\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1333474118&amp;sr=8-1\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon.com<\/a> and are eligible for Super Saver Shipping with a larger purchase.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #800080;\">A Mom&#8217;s Perspective<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I did find that the\u00a0sizes run a little small.
