Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these gloves waterproof?
No, they are highly water-repellent, meaning they handle light rain and mist well, but they are not designed to be submerged or worn in downpours.
Can I use these for winter skiing?
These are considered mid-weight gloves. They are ideal for high-activity sports in the 35-50°F (2-10°C) range, but they may be too light for static activities or extreme sub-zero temperatures.
How do I determine my size?
Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles, excluding your thumb, and refer to the GOREWEAR size chart for the most accurate fit.
Do these gloves have touchscreen compatibility?
The gloves are not specifically branded as touchscreen-capable. While the material is thin, performance on touchscreens may vary by device.
Are they machine washable?
Yes, wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry for the best results.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel damp after long exposure to rain
These gloves are water-repellent, not waterproof. They will eventually soak through in heavy rain; they are best suited for light mist or dry, windy conditions.
Gloves are losing their grip
Over time, dirt and oil can accumulate on the silicone palm. Gently clean the palms with a damp cloth and mild soap to restore grip performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your GOREWEAR C3 gloves last, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These gloves feature a stretch fit. Ensure you select the size that aligns with your palm measurement to maintain the benefit of the ergonomic shaping.
- Cleaning: Machine wash your gloves in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the GORE-TEX INFINIUM membrane.
- Drying: Air dry your gloves away from direct heat sources like radiators. High heat can damage the fabric's performance materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing for long periods to prevent odors.
