Troubleshooting
Touchscreen sensitivity is low
Ensure the conductive fingertips are clean and that your finger is making firm contact with the screen.
Gloves feel tight at the wrist
Loosen the velcro strap significantly before putting the glove on, then adjust to a comfortable tension level.
Glitter print shows signs of wear
Wash the gloves inside out to reduce friction against the glitter print during the machine wash cycle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the HKM Riding Gloves, follow these care guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the velcro is fastened snugly but not too tightly to allow for proper blood circulation.
- Cleaning: Use a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the insulation properties.
- Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the elastic components and the glitter print.
- Storage: Keep in a dry, cool place when not in use to maintain the integrity of the insulation.
