Full details

The SEALSKINZ Griston Waterproof Gloves are designed for adult women seeking reliable hand protection during cold and wet weather activities. Their key benefit is complete waterproofness combined with excellent breathability and warmth, ensuring comfort without compromising grip. A potential caveat is that for extremely heavy-duty or industrial use, a more robust glove might be considered. These gloves feature a three-layer construction with signature Aquasealz™ technology for guaranteed waterproofing, a textured palm for enhanced grip, and an insulative polyester lining for warmth.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

The Griston gloves are designed for warmth and insulation. While they offer good protection in cold weather, for extreme arctic conditions or prolonged exposure to sub-zero temperatures, a more heavily insulated glove might be necessary.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. A proper fit is essential for both comfort and performance, ensuring the waterproof membrane functions correctly and warmth is maintained.

Can these gloves be used for sports?

Yes, they are suitable for many outdoor sports like hiking and cycling due to their waterproof, breathable, and grip-enhancing features. However, they are not designed as protective gear for high-impact sports.

How long will the waterproof feature last?

With proper care and maintenance, the Aquasealz™ waterproof membrane and the glove's construction are designed for sustained performance and durability. Following the care instructions is key to longevity.

Are the materials eco-friendly?

SEALSKINZ focuses on creating thoughtful, lasting products to contribute to a greener world, emphasizing durability and sustained performance. Specific details on the eco-friendliness of the polyester and neoprene components can be found through the brand's environmental statements.

What is the difference between the Blue and Black versions?

The primary difference is the color. The materials and technology (Aquasealz™ waterproof membrane, polyester construction, PU palm) remain consistent across the Griston models in different colors.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside

Ensure gloves are fully dry before wearing. If dampness persists after drying, check for damage to the waterproof membrane. Ensure you are not overheating; the breathability features work best when there is a temperature difference between the inside and outside.

Reduced grip on palm

Wipe the PU palm with a slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue that might be affecting grip. Ensure hands are clean and dry before wearing.

Water seeping through

Inspect the gloves for any tears or holes in the fabric or membrane. If damage is found, the waterproof integrity may be compromised. Ensure cuffs are properly worn over or under sleeves to prevent water running down the arm.
