Product Information

Full details

The Sealskinz Coltishall Running Gloves are designed for adult runners seeking warmth and comfort during colder weather. Their key benefit is providing excellent insulation and moisture-wicking capabilities thanks to 100% merino wool construction. A potential caveat is their lightweight nature, which might not be sufficient for extreme cold without layering.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for very cold winter weather?

The Coltishall gloves are designed for cooler temperatures. While merino wool is highly insulative, for extreme cold (e.g., below freezing for extended periods), you might consider layering them with a warmer glove or using a more heavily insulated option.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Sealskinz, which typically involves measuring the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand. The available sizes are S, M, L, XL.

Can I use these gloves for activities other than running?

Yes, their lightweight and breathable design makes them suitable for various outdoor activities in cooler weather, such as walking, hiking, cycling, or general outdoor use.

How often should I wash the gloves?

Wash as needed. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so frequent washing isn't always necessary. Follow care instructions when washing.

What is the main advantage of merino wool in these gloves?

The primary advantages are its excellent natural warmth, breathability, moisture-wicking properties, and antimicrobial qualities, all while remaining lightweight and soft.

Do these gloves offer any waterproofing?

No, these are specifically designed as running gloves for warmth and breathability. They are not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Hands feel cold despite wearing gloves.

Ensure gloves are the correct size and not too tight, as this can restrict circulation. For colder conditions, consider layering a thinner liner glove underneath.

Gloves feel damp after activity.

Merino wool wicks moisture, but prolonged intense activity in very humid conditions can saturate them. Ensure proper drying after use by laying them flat away from heat.

Shrinking or damage after washing.

Always follow the care instructions carefully. Use cold water and avoid high heat drying or harsh detergents. Hand washing is the safest method.
