    Im looking for any type of gloves that i can wear when using laptops and capacitve screens. I have used Nike running gloves really great except the seam line was right at the tip of the finger so a bit hard to swipe and use my phone unless i kept pulling the seams up.

    any thin type of cloth should work becuase the nike gloves worked and they werent "made to use with screens and stuff" but worked with both phone and laptop, with a bit of light pressure.

    the most important thing is the that seam should not be at the tip of the finger as thats whats used when using a touchpad or touchscreen :)
    Cheers!

    thanks the help you guys, ill see if i can get it medically treated, but i know some companies make special type of clothing for sports like dry-fit (i think?) where it keeps your body cool but i was looking for gloves that are very thin in nature, such as running gloves which i've used, only problem as i said was the seam, so ill look into conductive thread :)

    your avatar fits your statement :D
