FAQs
Are these gloves machine washable?
While the materials are durable, we recommend hand washing with a mild technical cleaner to protect the Fusion Control bonded layers.
Can I use touchscreen devices with these?
These gauntlets are designed for maximum warmth and durability, so they may have limited touchscreen sensitivity compared to thinner tactical gloves.
How should I store them during the off-season?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the degradation of the waterproof membrane and insulation.
What is the benefit of the Aerogel palm?
Aerogel is an incredibly low-density, high-insulation material that resists compression, meaning it keeps your hands warm even when you are gripping gear tightly.
Are these suitable for temperatures below zero?
Yes, these are rated for extreme cold weather and are designed to prevent numbness and frostbite in freezing conditions.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel less waterproof over time
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating on the outer shell may have worn off. Clean the gloves and re-apply a technical DWR spray specifically for outdoor gear.
Difficulty putting gloves on when hands are damp
The high-friction nature of the waterproof membrane can make insertion tricky if skin is tacky. Ensure hands are fully dry before putting the gloves on to allow the inner liner to slide easily.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your gauntlets, avoid using aggressive detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the waterproof finish from the outer shell. If the gloves become soiled, it is best to hand wash them using a mild, technical-specific soap. Always air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources like radiators or open flames, which can damage the Fusion Control bonding. When storing, ensure they are completely dry to prevent mold or odors. These gloves are designed to be worn as an outer layer and feature a gauntlet cuff that should be tightened over your jacket sleeves to provide a sealed barrier against the elements.
