Product Information

Full details

The SEALSKINZ Lyng Gloves in Black are designed for adults seeking reliable performance and comfort during various outdoor activities. Their key benefit is superior waterproofness, insulation, and breathability thanks to the three-layer Aquasealz technology, ensuring your hands stay dry and warm in challenging conditions. A potential caveat is that the high level of waterproofing might slightly reduce extreme dexterity for very fine tasks, though Fusion Control technology aims to mitigate this. These gloves offer a secure fit, enhanced dexterity, warmth from a Merino Wool lining, and a dependable grip with an AX suede palm, making them robust for cold weather. They also feature touchscreen compatibility and a thumb wiper for added convenience.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, the combination of Merino Wool lining and Aquasealz technology provides excellent warmth and protection for cold weather conditions. For extremely harsh, prolonged cold, consider layering with thinner liner gloves if needed.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart. A proper fit is crucial for warmth and dexterity; the gloves should be snug but not tight, allowing for slight movement.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

It is recommended to hand wash them in cool or lukewarm water with liquid detergent. Machine washing is not advised as it can damage the waterproof membrane and bonded layers.

How long will the waterproof feature last?

The durable Aquasealz membrane is designed for longevity. However, performance can be maintained by following care instructions and periodically re-waterproofing, especially after significant use.

Will my hands overheat in warmer, wet conditions?

While designed for warmth, the breathability of the Aquasealz technology helps to vent moisture and heat. However, for mild or warm wet conditions, a less insulated glove might be more comfortable.

What is the difference between this model and other SEALSKINZ gloves?

The Lyng glove features the specific combination of Aquasealz and Fusion Control technologies, a Merino Wool lining, and an AX suede palm, optimized for a balance of warmth, waterproofing, grip, and dexterity across various outdoor activities.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside

Ensure gloves are fully dry before wearing. Check if the waterproof membrane is intact. If persistent, it may require re-waterproofing or washing according to care instructions.

Reduced touchscreen sensitivity

Ensure fingertips are clean and dry. The screen of your device should also be clean. Very cold temperatures can sometimes affect touchscreen performance on both the glove and device.

Loss of grip on the palm

Wipe the AX suede palm with a slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue that might be affecting grip. Ensure gloves are clean and dry.

Seams feel uncomfortable

The Fusion Control technology aims for a seamless fit. If a seam feels off, ensure the glove is fully on and the lining is not twisted. The glove should conform to the hand with wear.
