Product Information

Full details

The Sealskinz Hoveton gloves are ideal for outdoor enthusiasts seeking reliable hand protection during cold and wet conditions. Featuring triple-layer Aquasealz technology, these fleece-lined gloves excel at keeping hands dry while allowing moisture to escape, ensuring both comfort and warmth. While they offer excellent versatility for winter activities, users should note that the thicker construction required for waterproofing may reduce fine tactile dexterity compared to thin racing gloves.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme sub-zero temperatures?

While the sherpa fleece provides excellent warmth, they are best suited for mild to moderate cold weather conditions typically found in autumn and winter.

Can I put these gloves in a tumble dryer?

No, it is best to air dry these gloves. High heat from a tumble dryer can damage the waterproof membrane and the internal fleece lining.

Do the gloves come in different sizes?

Yes, the Sealskinz Hoveton is available in various sizes ranging from S to XL to ensure a proper fit.

Is the touchscreen compatibility affected by the waterproof layer?

No, the conductive material is integrated into the fingertip design specifically to work through the protective layers.

Can I use these for heavy-duty work?

While durable, these are primarily designed for outdoor recreation; heavy-duty abrasive work may wear down the palm print prematurely.

Troubleshooting

Touchscreen sensitivity is low

Ensure the index finger tip is clean and that the glove is pulled tight against your skin to create a better electrical contact.

Hands feeling damp inside

This is often caused by heavy perspiration; ensure you are not overdressing, as the gloves are breathable but require airflow to move moisture away effectively.

Loss of grip over time

Wipe the S-printed palm with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt or oils that may reduce traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fully waterproof design protects against rain and snow
  • Soft sherpa fleece lining offers superior thermal insulation
  • Breathable material prevents overheating during activity
  • Integrated palm grip enhances safety when holding objects
  • Convenient touchscreen compatibility

Cons

  • Slightly bulkier than non-waterproof cycling gloves
  • Limited fine motor precision due to insulation layers
  • Requires machine washing to maintain waterproofing efficacy

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, adjust the wrist cord until the cuff is snug against your skin, which prevents cold drafts from entering. For care, these gloves are machine washable at 30ºC. It is recommended to wash them using a gentle cycle to preserve the waterproof membrane and the integrity of the palm grip. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can impede the breathability of the Aquasealz technology. Always air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the elasticity and shape of the fabric.
