Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, the Steiner Mountain Ski Glove is designed with Primaloft™ superior insulation and a waterproof membrane, making it suitable for very cold winter conditions.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically found on their website or product packaging. Measure the circumference of your hand and the length of your palm. Ensure a snug but comfortable fit, allowing for a full range of motion.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand washing with mild detergent in cool water is the preferred method to protect the waterproof membrane and insulation.

What is Primaloft™ insulation?

Primaloft™ is a high-performance synthetic insulation known for its warmth, water resistance, and breathability, often compared to down but with superior performance in wet conditions.

How effective is the waterproofing?

The gloves feature a STAY-DRY waterproof and breathable membrane designed to keep moisture out while allowing perspiration to escape, ensuring your hands stay dry from both external and internal sources.

What is the purpose of the Rubbertec palm?

The full Rubbertec palm provides enhanced grip for handling ski poles, equipment, or other gear, and adds durability and protection to the palm area.

Can these gloves be used for activities other than skiing?

Absolutely. Their warmth, waterproofing, and dexterity make them suitable for a wide range of winter activities, including snowboarding, hiking, snowshoeing, and general cold-weather use.

Troubleshooting

Hands feel cold despite wearing the gloves.

Ensure the gloves are the correct size and fit snugly without being too tight, which can restrict circulation. Verify that the gauntlet cuff is closed properly to prevent heat loss and snow entry. Check if the insulation has become compacted over time; if so, gentle washing and air drying may help restore loft.

Gloves feel wet on the inside.

This could be due to the waterproof membrane failing or moisture from sweat. Ensure the gloves are thoroughly dried after each use. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be compromised, and replacement might be necessary. Avoid using harsh detergents.

Poor grip with the Rubbertec palm.

Check the Rubbertec palm for any dirt, oil, or residue that might be affecting grip. Clean the palm gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse and air dry. Ensure the palm material is not damaged or excessively worn.

Gauntlet cuff closure is not secure.

Inspect the closure mechanism for any debris or damage. Ensure the strap is threaded correctly and tightened firmly. If the closure is damaged, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Steiner Mountain Ski Glove requires no specific setup. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable and effective fit. The wrist strap and gauntlet cuff closure should be adjusted for security and to prevent snow ingress.

Compatibility: These gloves are designed for general winter use and are compatible with most ski and snowboarding gear. They are suitable for adults.

Care: To maintain the performance of your Steiner Mountain Ski Glove, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash using a mild detergent in cool water. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof membrane and insulation.
  2. Drying: Do not machine dry. Gently squeeze out excess water and hang the gloves to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged compression, which can affect the loft of the insulation.
