FAQs

Are these gloves waterproof?

They feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to repel light rain and mist, but they are not fully waterproof or designed for submerging in snow.

Can I put these in the dryer?

It is best to air dry these gloves to preserve the touch-screen conductivity and the life of the fleece material.

Are they PFAS-free?

Yes, Columbia has specifically designed these gloves without the use of PFAS chemicals.

How do I choose the right size for my child?

Measure the circumference of your child's hand around the knuckles and compare it to the specific size guide for the 7-8 age range to ensure a snug, comfortable fit.

Will these keep hands warm in deep winter?

These are lightweight microfleece gloves intended for cool weather; they are not insulated enough for severe winter conditions or heavy snow play.

Troubleshooting

Touch screen sensitivity is inconsistent.

Ensure the conductive fingertips are clean and free of dirt or oils. The finger must make direct, firm contact with the screen for the sensor to register.

Gloves are absorbing water quickly.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Consider reapplying a PFAS-free DWR spray treatment designed for technical outerwear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft and comfortable microfleece material
  • Convenient touch screen compatible fingertips
  • Durable abrasion-resistant overlays for added longevity
  • Environmentally friendly PFAS-free water repellent finish
  • Lightweight design perfect for active movement

Cons

  • Not intended for deep snow or heavy winter submersion
  • Provides limited protection against extremely strong winds
  • Material may pill if subjected to intense abrasion over time

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the Columbia Fast Trek III Gloves, proper care is essential. Since these gloves feature a DWR finish, it is recommended to machine wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using fabric softeners or heavy bleach, as these can strip the DWR treatment from the fabric. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the integrity of the conductive touch-screen fibers on the fingertips. Ensure you consult the size guide to match your child's hand measurements to the specific size (e.g., 7-8) for an optimal fit that prevents air gaps.
