FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for skiing or snowboarding?
While these gloves offer excellent warmth, they are primarily designed for general cold-weather use and commuting. For high-intensity snow sports that involve prolonged exposure to moisture and require maximum dexterity, specialized ski gloves might be a better option.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the Hestra sizing chart for accurate measurements. The gloves should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for some movement. A pre-curved fit means they should contour naturally to your hand.
Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?
No, these gloves are spot clean only. Machine washing can damage the leather and the Primaloft insulation.
What is Primaloft-Gold insulation?
Primaloft-Gold is a high-performance synthetic insulation known for its superior warmth, softness, compressibility, and water resistance. It provides excellent thermal efficiency even when damp.
How long will the leather last?
With proper care, including periodic conditioning and avoiding harsh cleaning methods or excessive moisture, the goat nubuck leather can last for many years, maintaining its look and feel.
Are these gloves waterproof?
These gloves are water-resistant due to the nature of the goat nubuck leather and Primaloft insulation, but they are not fully waterproof. They are best suited for cold, dry to moderately damp conditions.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight or restrictive
Leather gloves can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for extended periods around the house to allow them to conform to your hand shape. Ensure the wrist strap is not overly tightened.
Cold seeps through the material
Verify that the wrist strap and cuff are snug to prevent drafts. Ensure the internal lining is properly positioned. For extreme cold, consider layering thinner liner gloves underneath.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a small amount of specialized leather conditioner following product instructions. Allow the conditioner to absorb fully before wearing.
Difficult to put on or take off
Ensure the brushed polyester lining is smooth and not bunched. If the gloves are new, they may loosen up with use. Avoid using excessive force.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: Designed for adult use, these unisex gloves are compatible with most outdoor activities in cold weather. Their leather construction makes them suitable for casual wear, commuting, and light outdoor pursuits.
Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of your Hestra Classic Leather Gloves, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: These gloves are spot clean only. Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt or debris. Avoid submerging the gloves in water.
- Drying: If the gloves become damp, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather and insulation.
- Conditioning: Periodically, you may wish to use a leather conditioner specifically designed for fine leather goods to keep the goat nubuck supple and prevent it from drying out. Test any conditioner on an inconspicuous area first.
- Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding them sharply, which can crease the leather.
