As a mum of a very energetic 2-year-old who insists on daily walks no matter the weather, I can honestly say the hUDOMA Pram Gloves have become my absolute winter lifesaver. With the freezing temperatures arriving out of nowhere this week, I’ve never been more grateful for a product I didn’t even realise I needed until I tried it.

I chose the pair in the gorgeous Brooklyn Beige Pram Gloves, and they look so sleek against the handle of our pram — modern, stylish, and absolutely not your typical bulky winter accessory. The colour palette across the range is so chic too, from soft Stone Grey to the richer Midnight Navy, all with that premium, city-luxe feel that instantly elevates even the most well-loved pram.

But honestly? The design is what won me over. With a toddler who constantly demands snacks, wipes, drinks or “my toy, Mummy!”, I’m forever taking my hands on and off the pram. These gloves stay securely attached to the handle, so I can slip my hands in and out in seconds — no more dropping gloves in puddles, losing them in the changing bag, or trying to wrestle them back on in the cold. It’s such a small thing, but when you’re juggling a lively 2-year-old, it makes a huge difference.

The inside is beautifully soft and warm, and the outer feels luxurious but totally durable — the kind of quality you instantly notice. Even my partner commented on how comfortable they are (a first for anything I’ve bought for the pram!). They’ve genuinely transformed our icy nursery runs into something I can tolerate rather than dread.

I also love the story behind the brand — hUDOMA being named after the founder’s children, Hudson and Paloma. It feels like a product created by a parent who genuinely “gets it”, and that’s exactly how it performs: thoughtful, stylish, and brilliantly practical.

After seeing they’ve been awarded Best Pram Gloves 2025 by The Independent, plus wins from MadeForMums and Junior Design Awards, I’m not surprised at all. They deserve every bit of praise — and I completely understand why celebrity mums are raving about them too.

If you’re a parent heading into winter with a little one, these are a total must-have. Warm hands, zero stress, and a much easier life on cold morning walks. I only wish I’d bought them sooner.
