FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for summer riding?
The Halvarssons Butorp gloves are primarily designed for cooler weather touring due to their substantial insulation (Innoborn® 120 gr. and OUTLAST® lining). While the OUTLAST® lining offers some temperature regulation, they may be too warm for high-temperature summer riding.
How do I clean the gloves without damaging the membrane?
Hand wash with mild soap and lukewarm water, rinse thoroughly, and air dry away from direct heat. Avoid harsh detergents, fabric softeners, and machine drying, as these can impair the Dryway+2.0 membrane's performance.
What does 'HI-ART reinforcement' mean?
HI-ART is a high-abrasion resistant textile used in the palm area. It significantly increases the glove's durability and grip, especially important in a potential slide scenario.
Can I use my smartphone with these gloves on?
Yes, the gloves feature NUDUD Touch screen technology, allowing you to operate capacitive touch screens on devices like smartphones and GPS units without removing the gloves.
What is the waterproofing and breathability rating of the Dryway+2.0 membrane?
The Dryway+2.0 membrane has a waterproofing value of 10,000 mm and a breathability value of 30,000 gr./m2/24 h. This means it effectively blocks external water while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape.
How does the OUTLAST® lining work?
OUTLAST® is a phase-change material that absorbs, stores, and releases heat. It helps regulate hand temperature by absorbing excess heat when you're warm and releasing it when you get cold, maintaining a more constant microclimate.
What is the protection level of these gloves?
The Halvarssons Butorp gloves are certified Level 1, featuring knuckle protection and HI-ART reinforcement for enhanced safety.
Troubleshooting
Hands feel cold despite insulation.
Ensure gloves are fully dry inside and out. Check for proper fit; a glove that is too tight can restrict circulation. Consider if the external temperature is below the intended operating range of the insulation.
Water seeping through the membrane.
Verify that the Dryway+2.0 membrane is intact. Ensure there are no tears or holes. Check that the outer material is not saturated, which can happen if waterproofing treatment is compromised. Clean the gloves as per care instructions and ensure they are thoroughly air-dried.
Touch screen not responding.
Ensure the glove fingertips are clean and dry. Test on different devices. Confirm that the NUDUD Touch screen technology area is making direct contact with the screen. Some screen protectors may interfere with performance.
Lining bunching up.
This is minimized by the Skinfit XTR technology. If minor bunching occurs, try gently pulling the lining back into place. Proper fit and avoiding excessive force when putting on/taking off gloves can help prevent this.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Halvarssons Butorp gloves require no specific setup. Ensure a proper fit for maximum comfort and dexterity. Try them on with the type of base layers you typically wear on rides.
Compatibility: The NUDUD Touch screen technology is compatible with most capacitive touch screens found on smartphones and GPS devices. Performance may vary slightly depending on the screen protector used.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Hand wash using a mild soap and lukewarm water. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach. Rinse thoroughly.
- Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources such as radiators or sunlight. Avoid machine drying.
- Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically treat the leather exterior with a suitable leather conditioner for goatskin. For the membrane, avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents, as these can clog the pores and reduce breathability. Refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for specific membrane care products if needed.
