Designed for adult women hitting the slopes, these Mountain Warehouse Snowproof Gloves offer a reliable blend of insulation and utility for cold-weather activities. The fleece lining and snowproof fabric provide essential warmth and protection, though it is important to note that while they are water-resistant, they are best suited for light rain or packed snow rather than heavy, prolonged downpours.

FAQs
Are these gloves fully waterproof?
They are water-resistant with a DWR treatment, which is perfect for packed snow and light rain. They are not designed for full submersion or heavy, prolonged rain.
Can I use my touchscreen devices while wearing these?
These gloves are designed primarily for grip and warmth and do not feature integrated touchscreen-compatible fingertips.
What is the best way to clean them?
We recommend hand washing with mild soap and cold water, then allowing them to air dry naturally.
Are they suitable for extreme sub-zero temperatures?
The fleece lining offers great insulation for typical skiing conditions, but personal tolerance for cold varies; consider glove liners for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
How should the cuffs be adjusted?
Use the adjustable stretch cuff mechanism to tighten the opening around your wrist for a secure, draft-free fit.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel damp inside after long-term use
Moisture buildup is often caused by trapped sweat. Ensure you allow the gloves to air dry completely inside-out after every use.
Water is starting to soak into the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off. Apply a specialized DWR spray treatment to the exterior fabric to restore its water-repellent properties.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent warmth provided by the soft internal fleece lining
- Enhanced grip capability for handling gear safely
- Adjustable cuffs help create a secure, wind-resistant seal

Cons

- Limited to adult sizing
- Waterproofing may require re-treatment over time due to wear
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your gloves last throughout the season, follow these simple care and usage guidelines:
- Fitting: Adjust the stretch cuffs once you have the gloves on to ensure they fit snugly against your wrists, creating a barrier against wind and snow.
- Cleaning: Hand wash gently in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach that could strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Always air dry your gloves away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage the insulating materials and waterproof treatment.
- Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them in a storage bag to prevent odors or material degradation.
