FAQs

What makes these gloves warmer than regular knit gloves?

These gloves feature a 40g Thinsulate insulation layer specifically designed to trap body heat more effectively than standard wool knit alone.

How do I know if the unisex sizing will fit me?

It's recommended to measure your hand circumference and compare it to the brand's sizing chart, if available, or try them on if possible. The unisex nature means they aim for a broad fit.

Are these gloves suitable for very cold, wet conditions like snowstorms?

While they offer excellent warmth, the wool material is not inherently waterproof. They are best suited for cold, dry conditions. For wet snow activities, waterproof or water-resistant gloves would be more appropriate.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

No, it is recommended to hand wash these gloves in cool water with a mild detergent to preserve the wool and insulation. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What is Thinsulate insulation?

Thinsulate is a brand of synthetic insulation known for its ability to provide warmth while remaining lightweight and breathable. The '40g' refers to the weight of the insulation material per square meter.

How long are the cuffs?

The cuffs are designed to be long enough to fit comfortably under jacket sleeves, providing an extra layer of coverage and preventing cold air from entering.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or too loose.

Since these are unisex, try a different size if available, or consider layering thinner liner gloves underneath for a snugger fit if they are too loose.

Hands still feel cold.

Ensure the cuffs are properly tucked under your jacket sleeves to prevent drafts. For extreme cold, consider these gloves as part of a layering system with thinner liner gloves.

Wool fibers appear fuzzy or pilled.

This is natural for wool. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by carefully picking them off. Avoid excessive friction.
