The £1,000 gloves that turn your palm into a phone

The new gloves allow mobile phone users chat without taking their phone out of their pocket or handbag.

The gloves are known as 'Talk to the Hand' and cost £1,000 a pair.

They come with a speaker unit embedded into the thumb and a microphone built into the little finger that can be connected to any mobile handset using Bluetooth.

Artist Sean Miles designed the innovative gloves that double as a phone in part of his project that illustrates the possibilities of gadget recycling.

He uses vintage Miu Miu and Pineider gloves and combines them with parts from mobile handsets recycled through O2, which commissioned the project.


They will appear in an exhibition this July and visitors will be able to win the gloves.
If demand is high, they will then be produced on a larger scale.
