FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, the combination of boiled wool insulation and waterproof technology makes them highly suitable for cold and wet conditions.

Can I use these gloves with my smartphone?

No, these gloves are not designed for touchscreen compatibility. The materials used for waterproofing and grip do not typically interact with touchscreens.

How do I wash my Toftwood gloves?

Hand wash only in cool water with a mild soap. Do not bleach or use fabric softeners. Rinse well and dry naturally away from direct heat.

What is Aquasealz™ technology?

Aquasealz™ is Sealskinz's proprietary technology that ensures the gloves are fully waterproof while also allowing moisture vapor (perspiration) to escape, keeping hands dry from both external water and internal sweat.

How durable is the leather palm?

The natural goatskin leather palm is chosen for its excellent grip and durability, designed to withstand the wear and tear of repeated use in outdoor activities.

Will wool keep my hands warm even if it gets wet?

Yes, wool has natural insulating properties that allow it to retain warmth even when damp, which is a significant advantage in wet conditions.

What is the difference between this wool glove and the all-leather version?

The boiled wool exterior provides superior natural insulation and breathability compared to an all-leather glove, while still maintaining waterproofness. The leather palm in both versions offers grip and durability.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside after use.

This is likely due to perspiration. Ensure the Aquasealz™ membrane is not blocked. Gently hand wash the gloves as per care instructions and allow them to dry completely away from heat. For future use during high exertion, consider if a more breathable liner might be beneficial.

Reduced grip on the leather palm.

Clean the leather palm with a slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or oils. If the leather feels dry, apply a small amount of appropriate leather conditioner and allow it to absorb before use.

Wool exterior feels stiff or matted.

Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat during washing. If the wool becomes stiff, a gentle rinse in cool water and air drying may help. Avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the wool fibers.

Seams feel uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. If discomfort persists, try wearing a thin liner glove. For any manufacturing defects in the seams, contact customer support.
