FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for extreme winter weather?
They are designed for standard mountain sports and winter play; while highly warm, they are not intended for extreme, prolonged arctic conditions.
Can I put these gloves in the dryer?
No, it is highly recommended to air dry them to prevent damage to the insulation and the waterproof coating.
Do these gloves run true to size?
The size 7-8 is designed for the average child in that age bracket, but you can measure their palm circumference for the best fit.
Is the goggle wipe abrasive?
No, the goggle wipe is made of a soft material specifically chosen to prevent scratching ski goggles.
Can children use these gloves to operate touchscreens?
These gloves are designed for grip and warmth; they do not have specific touchscreen-compatible fingertips.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel cold despite insulation
Ensure the wrist strap is fully tightened to prevent cold air from entering the glove.
Waterproofing seems less effective
Check if the outer fabric is saturated; if so, air dry the gloves completely before next use to maintain performance.
Velcro is not staying fastened
Clear out any lint, debris, or snow buildup from the hook and loop fasteners to restore stickiness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Peter Storm gloves, start by adjusting the Velcro closure to fit snugly against the wrist; it should be secure enough to block snow entry but not so tight that it restricts circulation. When washing, avoid harsh detergents and bleach. It is best to hand wash in lukewarm water and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the waterproof membrane and insulation. Always store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
