to run, work out, stretch, jump… up to 2 to 3 hours outdoors with and without wind.

Any brands you’d recommend? I have long, thin fingers.

    I don’t run in gloves often because I’m so much warmer when I’m running than I am when I’m walking or standing outside. I generally dress as if it were 20 degrees warmer than it is, but it can be problematic for the first bit of a run. What I’ve found works best for me is running a short loop that comes back to my house in an easy to remove jacket, hat, and gloves that I can drop off at the door on my way past then continuing with the bulk of my run. In these cases any old gloves will do. When I do wear gloves for the full run, I wear a pair of thin, but insulated gloves from Heat that I got at Costco. They have silver in the fingers, so I can use my phone. It’s more difficult than without the gloves, but it’s not like I’m using my phone much mid run anyway.
