Product Information

Full details

The Sealskinz Bodham Waterproof Cycling Gloves are designed for adult cyclists seeking reliable protection from wet weather and cold temperatures. Their key benefit is keeping hands dry and comfortable during rides, mitigating common issues like blisters and numbness. A potential caveat is that the focus on waterproofing might slightly impact the breathability for very intense, high-output activities. These gloves feature a three-layer composition with a waterproof membrane, a suede-like palm for grip, touchscreen compatibility, and reflective detailing for safety.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

These gloves are designed for all-weather use, including cold conditions. They offer waterproof protection and insulation. For extremely low temperatures or prolonged exposure, consider pairing them with liner gloves.

How do I determine the correct size?

Measure the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand. Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically found on their website or product packaging, to select the best fit.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

It is recommended to hand wash the gloves in cold or lukewarm water. Machine washing, especially with harsh cycles or detergents, can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.

How long does the waterproofing last?

With proper care and maintenance, the Aquasealz® waterproof membrane is designed for durability. Regular cleaning and avoiding high heat drying will help prolong its effectiveness.

Are these gloves insulated?

Yes, the gloves feature a three-layer composition that includes an inner lining designed for warmth and comfort, balancing waterproofness with insulation.

What is the PU suede thumb wiper for?

The PU suede thumb wiper is a soft material on the thumb designed to gently wipe away sweat from your forehead or clean your cycling glasses or helmet visor without scratching.

Can I use these for activities other than cycling?

While designed for cycling, their waterproof and grippy nature makes them suitable for other outdoor activities in wet or cold weather, such as hiking or general outdoor work.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside, but it's not raining.

This may be due to perspiration. Ensure the gloves are properly dried after each use. If the issue persists, the breathability may be insufficient for your activity level; consider a lighter glove for high-intensity efforts or warmer conditions.

Touchscreen functionality is intermittent.

Ensure the touchscreen areas (index finger and thumb) are clean and dry. The protective film from new gloves might need to be removed. Heavy moisture or dirt on the screen or glove can affect performance.

Reduced grip after prolonged use.

Clean the palm area with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue that might be affecting the suede-like grip. Allow to dry completely.

Gloves feel stiff after washing.

Avoid harsh detergents and ensure you are not using bleach or fabric softener. Gently hand wash and air dry away from direct heat. Stiffness can sometimes occur but should lessen with use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing for wet conditions.
  • Maintains grip even when wet.
  • Allows for touchscreen use.
  • Increases visibility in low light.
  • Prevents inner glove slippage and bunching.

Cons

  • May be less breathable during very high-intensity efforts compared to non-waterproof gloves.
  • Suede-like palm might require specific cleaning to maintain grip over time.
  • Color family is specific (Yellow), limiting aesthetic choices.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves are ready to use straight out of the packaging. No setup is required.

Compatibility:

  • Bicycles: Compatible with all types of bicycles (road, mountain, hybrid, commuter).
  • Devices: Compatible with most touchscreen devices, including smartphones and GPS units.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Hand wash in cold or lukewarm water. Do not bleach. Do not iron. Do not dry clean.
  • Drying: Hang to dry away from direct heat sources. Avoid tumble drying, as this can damage the waterproof membrane.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Ensure gloves are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
