Product Information
Full details
The Sealskinz Garvestone Glove in Brown is designed for adults seeking robust protection against cold weather conditions. Its primary benefit is offering complete waterproofness and breathability, ensuring comfort during strenuous activities. A potential caveat is its specific material composition, which may require proper care to maintain longevity. This glove features a three-layer Aquasealz technology, combining a goatskin leather palm for grip and durability with a sherpa fleece exterior for warmth and softness. An adjustable cuff enhances insulation, and it includes clasps for convenient storage when not in use.

FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?
Yes, the Garvestone gloves are designed for cold weather with sherpa fleece insulation and waterproof technology. For extremely low temperatures, consider layering or using them for moderately strenuous activities where body heat is generated.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically found on their website or product packaging, which usually involves measuring hand circumference.
Can I machine wash these gloves?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand wash only with cold water and mild soap to preserve the waterproof membrane and leather.
How often should I condition the leather palm?
It's recommended to condition the leather palm periodically, especially after cleaning or if it appears dry. Once or twice a season, or as needed, should suffice.
What does 'breathable' mean in relation to these gloves?
Breathable means the material allows moisture vapor (sweat) to escape from inside the glove, helping to keep your hands dry and comfortable during activity.
Can the clasps be removed?
The clasps are typically integrated into the design and are not intended to be removed.
What is the warranty period for these gloves?
Warranty information can vary. Please refer to the official Sealskinz website or your purchase documentation for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel wet inside after use.
Ensure the gloves are fully dried after each use. If significant moisture persists, check the Aquasealz membrane for damage. Ensure the cuff is properly adjusted to prevent water ingress.
Reduced grip on the leather palm.
Clean the leather palm with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. If the leather feels dry, apply a small amount of leather conditioner suitable for gloves.
Fleece is matted or stiff.
Gently brush the fleece with a soft brush after drying. Avoid excessive heat or harsh cleaning agents which can damage the fibers.
Seals and stitching appear damaged.
Inspect the gloves regularly for wear and tear. Minor damage to seals may be repairable with appropriate waterproofing agents. For significant damage, contact customer support.
