FAQs

Are these gloves touchscreen compatible?

Yes, due to their ultra-thin construction, they provide enough sensitivity to operate most modern touchscreens without removing the gloves.

Can I use these for winter mountaineering?

No. These are designed for active use in mild, wet conditions. They do not have the thermal insulation required for freezing temperatures.

What is the primary material used?

The construction involves a nylon-based stretch outer layer, a performance Porelle membrane, and a smooth moisture-wicking inner liner.

Do they provide grip on wet surfaces?

The knit material is designed for dexterity and movement, but it is not specifically reinforced with anti-slip rubberized palms.

How should I clean them if they get muddy?

Rinse the exterior with cool water and use a soft sponge if necessary. Avoid harsh scrubbing or heavy-duty laundry detergents.

Are these gloves gender-specific?

No, these are unisex gloves designed to fit a wide variety of hand shapes.

Troubleshooting

Feeling dampness inside the glove

If the gloves are not punctured, this is likely moisture buildup from sweat; ensure you are not wearing them in temperatures above the recommended 15°C threshold.

Water leaking through after long use

Check the outer knit for small tears or snags. If the waterproof membrane has been punctured by a sharp object, the glove will lose its water-resistant capability.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof protection without the bulk
  • Highly breathable for intense physical activity
  • Superior dexterity for precise movements
  • Lightweight and compact for easy storage

Cons

  • Not suitable for extreme cold temperatures
  • Limited warmth due to the ultra-thin design
  • Best performance is restricted to the 5°C to 15°C range

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the waterproof membrane, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cool water (below 40°C) or use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Air dry naturally. Never place them on direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage the lamination and the membrane.
  3. Storage: Ensure they are completely dry before storing them for long periods to prevent moisture buildup in the inner lining.
  4. Handling: Avoid contact with sharp objects or thorns, as punctures to the outer layer can compromise the waterproof integrity of the membrane.
