FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

While these gloves offer good warmth and protection, they are best suited for moderate to cold winter conditions. For extreme cold, consider layering with thinner liner gloves.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The gloves should fit snugly without being tight. There should be a small amount of space around your fingers, but your palm should feel supported. Use the adjustable cord to fine-tune the fit at the wrist.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the waterproof membrane, insulation, and faux fur. Hand wash with cold water and mild soap only.

What is the primary function of the Hydroshell membrane?

The Hydroshell membrane is a waterproof layer designed to prevent water from penetrating the glove while allowing some moisture vapor to escape, helping to keep your hands dry from both external moisture and sweat.

How do I care for the faux fur trim?

After washing and air drying, gently brush the faux fur with a soft brush to restore its texture. Avoid using high heat, as it can damage the synthetic fibers.

What materials are these gloves made from?

The gloves are primarily made of 90% Polyester and 10% Polyurethane, with a faux fur finish on the wrists and a Bemberg lining.

Can the adjustable cord be removed?

The adjustable cord is integrated into the glove design for functionality and is not designed to be removed.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside

Ensure the gloves are completely dry before wearing. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be compromised; consider replacing them. Avoid machine drying, as it can damage materials.

Fit is too loose or too tight

Adjust the cord at the wrist to achieve a snug fit that prevents snow from entering. Ensure you have selected the correct size.

Faux fur trim looks matted

After washing and drying, gently brush the faux fur with a soft brush to restore its loft and appearance. Avoid applying heat directly to the fur.

Reduced warmth over time

Check for any visible damage to the layers or membrane. Ensure the inner lining is clean and dry. For significantly degraded performance, replacement may be necessary.
