Product Information

Full details

The SealSkinz Walpole Windproof Cold Weather Convertible Mitts are designed for active adults who require a balance between thermal protection and manual dexterity in freezing conditions. By combining premium PrimaLoft Gold insulation with a versatile magnetic fold-back mitt design, these gloves effectively prevent numbness and frostbite during outdoor activities like photography or fishing; however, users should note that while the outer layer is water-repellent, they are not fully waterproof, meaning they may saturate during prolonged heavy rain.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves fully waterproof?

No, they feature a water-repellent outer layer, meaning they will handle light precipitation but are not designed for submersion or heavy, prolonged rain.

Can I use my smartphone while wearing these?

Yes, you can fold the mitt cover back to use your fingers for touchscreens, providing greater precision than touch-compatible fingertips.

How do I clean the goatskin leather?

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth and allow it to dry away from direct heat. Avoid soaking the leather.

What is the benefit of the COOLMAX liner?

COOLMAX helps wick moisture away from your skin, which prevents the cooling effect that damp skin causes in cold weather.

Are these suitable for deep winter activities like skiing?

They are ideal for brisk, cold conditions. For deep winter or high-alpine conditions, you may prefer a fully waterproof, gauntlet-style glove.

Do the magnets affect electronics?

The magnets are designed for the glove mechanism; however, avoid placing sensitive electronic storage media directly against the magnetic points.

Troubleshooting

Magnetic cover does not stay open

Ensure the magnetic contact points are free of dirt, mud, or debris which can block the magnetic connection.

Gloves feel cold in extreme wind

Ensure the mitt cover is fully closed over the fingers and that the wrist closure is tightened to prevent internal airflow.

Leather palm feels stiff after rain

Allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from direct heat and apply a leather conditioner once completely dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent balance of dexterity and thermal protection
  • Magnetic mitt cover is quick and convenient to operate
  • High-quality goatskin leather offers exceptional grip
  • PrimaLoft Gold insulation provides high warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Moisture-wicking liner prevents clammy hands

Cons

  • Water-repellent, not fully waterproof
  • Leather palm requires occasional maintenance
  • Magnetic fasteners can attract metallic debris in specific environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your gloves last, avoid machine washing with heavy detergents that can strip the leather oils. Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. If the goatskin leather becomes stiff after drying, use a small amount of leather conditioner to maintain suppleness. For storage, keep the mitts in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack and the insulation to lose its loft. Ensure the magnets are cleared of debris before folding the covers back to maintain a secure seal.
