Agloves

What Agloves does

Agloves is a Boulder, Colorado-based private company founded in 2010 that designs and sells touchscreen-compatible gloves. The company's core technology is a conductive-fiber yarn woven throughout the glove that enables all ten fingers to operate capacitive touchscreens, eliminating the need to remove gloves in cold weather to use smartphones or tablets. Agloves holds US Patent No. 8,605,049 covering this 10-finger touchscreen glove technology, which it positions as the foundational IP for the product category under the 'The Original 10 Finger TouchScreen Gloves' brand.

The product portfolio is narrow and focused on three SKUs: the Original Sport lightweight touchscreen glove at $12.95 per pair, the Polar Sport cold-weather touchscreen glove at $19.99 per pair, and a Corporate Branding service for custom-branded bulk orders. All products are sold direct-to-consumer through the company's own Bigcommerce-powered e-commerce storefront, with marketing conducted via organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram), an educational 'Glove Science' content page, a blog, and an email newsletter.

The business model is purely transactional with no recurring revenue component. The primary customer segment is individual consumers who need to operate touchscreen devices outdoors in cold weather, while a secondary corporate segment uses Agloves as a practical branded merchandise or gift item. Pricing for the corporate channel is quote-based rather than publicly disclosed. The company is small (11-50 employees), privately held, and operates without disclosed funding rounds, named enterprise customers, or management team information in the source data.
