FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for very young children?
Yes, these gloves are designed for children and offer warmth and protection. However, ensure the size is appropriate for your child's hands for safety and comfort.
How do I know if I'm choosing the right size?
Measure the length of your child's hand from the tip of the middle finger to the base of the palm, and the width across the palm. Compare these measurements to the sizing chart provided by Reusch.
Can these gloves be washed in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these gloves, as the harshness of the cycle and detergents can damage the Gore-Tex membrane and insulation. Hand washing is the preferred method.
What does 'Gore-Tex' mean for the gloves?
Gore-Tex is a waterproof yet breathable membrane that prevents water from entering the glove while allowing moisture vapor (sweat) to escape, keeping hands dry and comfortable.
How often should I reapply waterproofing treatment?
Reapply a DWR treatment when you notice water is no longer beading up and rolling off the surface of the gloves. This typically depends on the frequency and intensity of use, but often once a season is sufficient.
Are these gloves insulated?
Yes, the gloves feature premium technology designed to keep hands warm, indicating they have insulation suitable for cold conditions.
Troubleshooting
Hands feel cold despite wearing gloves
Ensure the gloves are completely dry inside and out. Moisture reduces insulation. Check that the size is correct and not too tight, as this can restrict circulation. Verify that the glove cuffs are properly sealed and not letting cold air in.
Gloves feel damp inside after use
This could indicate the Gore-Tex membrane is compromised or the gloves were not dried properly after the previous use. Ensure they are fully air-dried after each use. If dampness persists, consider checking for damage and re-applying a DWR treatment.
Stitching or seams appear to be coming apart
Inspect the gloves for any visible damage. Minor fraying can sometimes be trimmed. For significant seam issues, contact customer support as this may affect the glove's integrity and waterproofing.
