Nike Therma-FIT Tech Fleece Gloves - Black

No, the Nike Therma-FIT Tech Fleece Gloves are designed for warmth and breathability, not waterproofing. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not intended for heavy rain or snow.

While the Tech Fleece material itself does not have specific touchscreen compatibility, the gloves generally allow for enough dexterity to operate most smartphones. However, they are not designed with conductive fingertips.

Therma-FIT is Nike's proprietary technology designed to provide insulation by trapping body heat, while regular fleece is a type of soft fabric. Therma-FIT utilizes this fabric structure to enhance warmth retention.

Measure the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand from the wrist to the tip of your middle finger. Compare these measurements to Nike's sizing chart for gloves.

These gloves are best suited for moderate cold and everyday activities. For demanding winter sports like skiing or snowboarding in very cold or wet conditions, specialized insulated and waterproof gloves are recommended.

Wash your gloves as needed, typically when they show signs of dirt or odor. Over-washing can reduce the lifespan of the material and its insulating properties. Always follow the care label instructions.

Ensure gloves are the correct size and fit snugly without being too tight, which can restrict circulation. For extreme cold, consider layering with thinner liner gloves.

Check that fabric softener was not used during washing, as this can impede the Therma-FIT technology. Follow care instructions precisely.

Inspect the seams for any loose threads. If minor, a small amount of fabric glue can be applied. For significant damage, professional repair or replacement may be necessary.
