Finally! A Giveaway All Genders Can Enjoy – Work Your IPod in the Snow with EtreTouchy Gloves

Written by Ashley

Etre Touchy gloves are a fun way to keep your hands warm and dry while using mobile phones, portable games systems, music players and other electronic devices. Their missing thumb and index fingertips allow you to touch, tap, stroke, slide and pinch these devices’ displays in any way you desire – a facet of their design that is particularly important when interacting with touch-screen devices like the iPhone and iPod Touch, since their capacitive touch-screen technology means that they only respond to your bare naked fingertips.

Totally the most handy piece of glove craftsmanship I’ve ever seen. I’m not a fan of having to take my glove off every time an embarrassing song comes on my I-Pod in the subway. (Steph, you know what I’m talkin’ about, sistah.) And, yes, I wear my gloves in the subway. ( it’s chilly in there!)

Be one of the 10 luckies to never have to go through the same humiliation.

  • I think is the best invention I’ve ever seen! Seriously so smart! This is my first winter and I miss being able to use my phone and Ipod on the way to work! Also because they leave the index/thumb finger free they are probably great for picking up things like loose change/papers. Please send a very cold Floridian a pair!

  • I don’t have an iPhone, but I can use these on my Palm Centro, or on the Droid I’m definitely going to get when my 2 years is up.

  • These are perfect for MN weather. I am constantly pulling my gloves on and off to use my iPod. Look very comfy!!

  • These is seriously a great idea! I hate having to take my gloves off to use my ipod!!! Great idea!!!!

  • I’m most looking forward to touching my Blackberry and ipod while wearing my EtreTouchy gloves. I too, wear my gloves in the subway (I’m trying to avoid getting the germs for TB while holding on for dear life) and would love to be able to keep them on when I want to skip that song that was awesome 3 years ok and now irritates me.

    I’d also love to use them for my Blackberry. I want to look like a self important pretentious douche bag who needs to use their Blackberry while on the subway even though I don’t get any service 😛

    Thanks for fixing the comments section!

  • Im not ashamed to say i want to touch a hot guy while wearing my EtreTouchy gloves. second comes my cell but seriously……hot guy

  • It is such a pain to keep having to take off your gloves to use your iPod. This makes it totally easy. I’d like to give them a home.

  • I’m going to get a new myTouch phone…and touch it using my gloves! This is a huge deal for me because my current phone is from like, 1982. So new phone, new gloves!

  • 1) my nose with a tissue when it runs on cold NYC days
    2) phone for texting
    3) ipod
    4) same as Dynelle – a hot guy – my hot guy 🙂

  • Perfect for waiting for the t when meeting up with friends in frigid Boston!! Love them!

  • Just got a new iPhone last night – I must say, these gloves would be awesome so now while I’m out there smoking and browsing through all these cool apps I can download and making my to-do lists I’ll be able to stay warm. 🙂

  • I would love these gloves! They would be great for when I’m walking my dog in the snow and texting.

  • these will be good for use with both my iPod Touch and HTC Touch. oh, and I think Etre left something off their usage list on their site. I can think of something which can actually help complete their (un)official list. how about puffing on a joint?

  • I’m looking forward to touching my iPod Touch & HP netbook with these! I love the winter & always do my lunch break outside but hate it when it’s so cold that my fingers get numb!

  • I’m looking forward to touching my iphone with these gloves… these gadgets are just not glove sensitive enough!!

  • These will be perfect for waiting for the train in the cold while multi-tasking on my Blackberry and iPod!

  • I am most looking forward to being able to text – I usually have to take my gloves off entirely and my hands become ice cubs after a few seconds…!

  • WoW, we can pick our noses with them on !!!! I dont quite have an ipod yet or a blackberry, I just have a regular old cell phone, but I cant wait to try those gloves out, on my crappy, old cell phone !! hee hee 🙂

  • I look forward to touching my Blackberry and hitting the correct keys with these cool gloves.

  • I/ll be the hottest and coolest third grade teacher in Phila. I desperately need these gloves to further add to my appeal as the coolest, nicest, prettiest teacher ever. Or did my Mom say that to me? Love ya! thanks

  • My lovely daughter needs these gloves desperately. It is freezing here in Philly and I would be so happy to see her texting in them. Love ya Thanks . Guess who???

  • Hi! I would love these to use with my Blackberry! My hands are always cold. Thanks for the giveaway! Happy Holidays!

  • looking forward to actually being able to dial a number on my phone!! and when it’s FREEZING while you’re driving but you need to blow your nose and you need to take your glove off so the thumb of your glove doesnt get gross…

  • These would perfect for using my oldskool cellphone, ipod and for scratching everything that needs to be scratched 😀

  • I look forward to touching the snow. In the winter me and a bunch of my friends get together and have a huge snow ball fight.

  • These would be awesome not only for using my ipod, but also for pulling out my MetroCard and credit cards out of the little slots in my wallet – can’t do it with regular gloves, because they make the fingers too thick!

  • I need these sooo bad! I have fingerless gloves and my fingers get cold from from all the texting, bbming, twittering, FBing and iPod touching I do. These gloves are JUST right, keeps some fingers warm while exposing the right ones for texting, twittering, fbing, myspacing, etc….
    This would make my fingers happy! 🙂

    Thanks!
