Product Information

Full details

The Madison DTE 4-Season DWR Gloves are engineered for dedicated mountain bikers who require a reliable barrier against the elements without sacrificing tactile control. These gloves feature a durable water-repellent (DWR) coating that provides windproof and showerproof protection, making them ideal for changing trail conditions. While they excel in breathability and grip, users should note that they are designed as a versatile mid-weight option and may not provide enough insulation for extreme sub-zero winter temperatures.

FAQs

Are these gloves fully waterproof?

They feature a DWR coating that is showerproof and windproof, meaning they are highly water-resistant but not fully seam-sealed waterproof.

Can I use these in deep winter?

They are designed as 4-season gloves for active use. They offer great protection in cool, wet, and windy conditions, but are not insulated for extreme freezing temperatures.

How do I ensure the right fit?

The gloves are designed with a technical pre-curved cut. We recommend checking the size guide against your hand measurements to ensure the wrist cuff seals correctly without being restrictive.

Can these be machine washed?

We recommend hand washing to preserve the life of the DWR coating and the silicone grip elements.

Does the orange color fade?

The fabric is colorfast, but like all technical gear, extended exposure to UV light and abrasive trail conditions can cause minor fading over long periods.

Troubleshooting

Gloves losing water repellency over time

Wash the gloves to remove dirt and grime, then apply a spray-on DWR treatment designed for cycling apparel.

Difficulty operating touch screens

These gloves prioritize brake feel and material durability; they are not optimized for touch screen use. For safety, remove the glove if frequent phone use is required.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent windproof and water-repellent performance
  • Pre-curved design reduces hand fatigue
  • Precise brake control via silicone grippers
  • Highly breathable for active mountain biking
  • Minimalist palm design provides great tactile feedback

Cons

  • Not suitable for extreme arctic-level temperatures
  • DWR coating may require re-treatment after heavy use
  • Limited to orange colorway

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Madison DTE gloves maintain their water-repellent properties, always follow the care label instructions. It is recommended to hand wash in lukewarm water with a mild, technical-specific detergent. Avoid harsh fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating. To dry, hang the gloves in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the synthetic materials and the silicone grippers. If the water-repellency begins to fade after significant use, applying a spray-on DWR restorer can effectively renew the performance of the fabric.
