"Working in polar regions has become an obsession for me. Iâm passionate about capturing stunning images and sharing my knowledge with like-minded individuals. Having the right gear is crucial; you donât want environmental challenges to hinder your creativity or efficiency. After years of searching for the perfect combination of comfort and practicality, I had the opportunity to test Vallerret Skadi LRS Camera Gloves in -35°C in Lapland, Finland. I wanted to find something that kept my hands warm, but also my fingers together as we produced more heat by having them joined than having them separated. Being handy for manipulating cameras is crucial, especially in these environments. Iâm not typically materialistic, but when I find high-quality equipment, I tend to stick with it and enjoy inspiring others to do the same." -Virgil
