FAQs
What material are the Barts Basic Skigloves Kids made from?
The gloves are made from 90% Polyester and 10% Polyurethane, with a Bemberg lining and a Hydroshell waterproof membrane.
Are these gloves suitable for very cold temperatures?
Yes, the 5-layer technical construction, including a heat-regulating synthetic layer and waterproof membrane, is designed for winter conditions.
How do I ensure I'm buying the correct size?
Refer to the Barts sizing guide for children's gloves, typically available from the retailer. Measure your child's hand circumference and length to match with the appropriate size.
Can these gloves be machine washed?
No, it is recommended to hand wash them only in cold water with mild detergent to preserve the waterproof properties and material integrity.
What does the elastic band around the wrists do?
The elastic band provides a secure fit to prevent snow from entering the glove and helps keep the glove in place during active use.
How long will the waterproof feature last?
The waterproof feature is inherent to the Hydroshell membrane. With proper care and maintenance, its effectiveness should last for the intended lifespan of the gloves. Periodic re-application of a DWR spray can help maintain outer water repellency.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel damp inside.
Ensure gloves are completely dry before use. If the inside feels damp after a long period of heavy use, it might be due to sweat. Allow them to air dry fully between uses. Check for any damage to the waterproof membrane.
Elastic wristband feels too tight or too loose.
The elastic is designed for a snug fit to keep snow out. If it feels too tight, ensure the correct size is being used. If it's too loose, the seal against snow entry may be compromised.
Outer material seems less water-repellent over time.
Over time, the water-repellent finish may wear down. Consider using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for technical outerwear after thorough cleaning and drying, following the product's instructions.
