FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold temperatures?

The gloves are designed for cold weather and feature warm SHERPA pile fleece lining. For extremely cold or prolonged exposure, consider layering with liner gloves or choosing a more insulated model.

How do I clean the goat leather parts?

Gently wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For best results, clean the entire glove with a mild soap designed for technical outdoor gear and allow to air dry. Condition the leather after cleaning.

What does PETRICHOR TECHNOLOGY do?

PETRICHOR TECHNOLOGY is an insert that provides waterproof and breathable protection, keeping your hands dry from external moisture while allowing internal moisture (sweat) to escape.

Can I use my smartphone with these gloves on?

The full goat leather palm and knuckles are designed for dexterity. While they offer good tactile feedback for many tasks, fine touch screen operation might be challenging due to the material and construction. Consider gloves with dedicated touch screen compatibility if this is a primary requirement.

What is the purpose of the leash loop?

The leash loop is an added security feature that allows you to attach the gloves to your wrist or pack, preventing them from being dropped or lost, especially in windy conditions or during dynamic activities.

Are the materials recycled?

Yes, the gloves incorporate recycled materials, including 50% Nylon and 42% Polyester in the main fabric blend, and 70% recycled Polyester in the lining of the goatskin.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Measure your hand circumference and length according to the Montane sizing chart. The adjustable gauntlet cuff and elasticated wrist allow for fine-tuning the fit to seal out weather effectively.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff after drying.

The leather may need conditioning. Apply a small amount of a suitable leather conditioner and gently work it into the material. Allow to absorb and buff off any excess.

Reduced waterproofing performance.

Check the PETRICHOR TECHNOLOGY insert for damage. Ensure the DWR finish on the GRANITE STRETCH fabric is intact. Reapply a PFC/PFAS-free DWR treatment if necessary. Clean the gloves thoroughly according to care instructions.

Fleece lining feels matted or less warm.

Ensure the gloves are fully dry and have not been exposed to excessive heat, which can damage the fleece. Gentle brushing of the fleece might help restore loft.

Seams feel uncomfortable or are causing irritation.

Ensure the correct size has been selected. For minor issues, try wearing a thin liner glove. For significant discomfort, consider if the glove is suitable for the intended activity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance thanks to PETRICHOR TECHNOLOGY.
  • High level of dexterity and freedom of movement due to GRANITE Stretch fabric and articulated fingers.
  • Durable construction with full goat leather and reinforced high-wear zones.
  • Warm and quick-drying insulation from SHERPA pile fleece.
  • Secure and adjustable fit with gauntlet cuff and elasticated wrist.

Cons

  • Requires specific care due to the combination of technical fabrics and leather.
  • May be too warm for moderate conditions.
  • The specialized waterproof insert might reduce breathability compared to non-waterproof alternatives.
  • Contains non-textile parts of animal origin (goat leather), which may not be suitable for all users.
  • Higher price point reflective of technical features and materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Montane Supercell Glove requires no setup. Simply ensure the adjustable gauntlet cuff is tightened appropriately to seal out weather and the elasticated wrist provides a snug fit.

Compatibility: These gloves are designed for adult male hands and are compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities. They are intended for use in cold and wet weather conditions.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash using a mild soap (e.g., Nikwax Tech Wash or similar) and cool water. Gently clean the leather with a damp cloth, avoiding harsh scrubbing. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  2. Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  3. Leather Care: After cleaning and drying, condition the goat leather periodically with a suitable leather conditioner (e.g., Nikwax Waterproofing Wax for Leather) to maintain its suppleness and water resistance. Apply sparingly and buff off any excess.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably uncompressed, to maintain the integrity of the waterproof membrane and fleece lining.
