Product Information

Full details

The Sealskinz Lyng - Blue glove is designed for adults seeking reliable hand protection during cold weather outdoor activities. Its key benefit is balancing waterproofness, insulation, and breathability thanks to the three-layer Aquasealz technology and Fusion Control. A potential caveat is that while robust, they are primarily for performance in cold conditions and may be warmer than desired in milder weather.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

The gloves offer good insulation due to the merino wool lining and three-layer construction, making them suitable for cold weather. For extreme, sub-zero conditions with prolonged exposure, consider thicker, more specialized winter gloves.

Can I use these gloves with a touchscreen?

The AX Suede palm provides grip but typically does not have specific touchscreen compatibility features. Using them with touchscreens may be difficult or impossible.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which usually involves measuring the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand. Ensure a snug fit without being restrictive for optimal performance.

What does 'Fusion Control' mean?

Fusion Control is Sealskinz's proprietary technology that bonds the different layers of the glove together. This ensures a seamless construction that enhances the balance of waterproofness, insulation, and breathability.

How often should I re-apply DWR treatment?

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. A general guideline is to re-apply when you notice water no longer beads up and rolls off the outer fabric. Typically, this might be after 10-20 washes or a season of heavy use.

Can these gloves be machine washed?

It is recommended to hand wash these gloves in cold water. Machine washing, especially on high heat or with harsh spin cycles, can damage the waterproof membrane and reduce the lifespan of the glove.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside after use.

Ensure the gloves are fully dried between uses. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may need re-treatment or there might be damage to the layers. Check for wear on the seams or palm.

Reduced grip on the palm.

Clean the AX suede palm with a damp cloth to remove dirt and oils. Avoid using harsh cleaners. If the material appears worn, it may be nearing the end of its lifespan for optimal grip.

Merino wool lining feels itchy.

This is uncommon as merino wool is typically soft. Ensure the gloves are clean. Sometimes, a new garment can feel slightly different before its first wash. Follow the recommended washing instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves are ready to wear straight out of the packaging. No setup is required.

Compatibility: Designed for adult unisex use, they are compatible with most outdoor activities. The AX suede palm ensures good grip on various surfaces and equipment handles.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, as this can damage the waterproof membrane and affect material properties.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang to air dry away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Ensure gloves are completely dry before storing.
  3. Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically treat the outer fabric with a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-proofer, following the product's instructions, to maintain optimal water repellency.
