FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

Can I use my smartphone with these gloves on?
Yes, the removable Storm Liner glove is touch-screen compatible, allowing you to operate most smartphones and other capacitive touch devices.
How do I clean the Dakine Titan GORE-TEX Gloves?
Hand wash with cold water and mild soap. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is the purpose of the stash pocket?
The water-resistant zippered stash pocket is designed to securely store small essentials like keys, money, or a heat pack.
What does 'PFC Free DWR' mean?
PFC-free DWR means the Durable Water Repellent finish applied to the shell material does not contain per- or poly-fluorinated chemicals, which are considered more environmentally friendly.
How does the removable liner add value?
The removable liner provides an additional layer of warmth and is touch-screen compatible, offering flexibility for varying temperatures and the need to use electronic devices.
What is the cuff closure system?
The cuff features a one-hand cinch gauntlet, allowing you to easily adjust the fit with one hand to seal out snow and cold air.
Troubleshooting
Hands feel cold despite wearing gloves
Ensure the Storm Liner is properly inserted and snug. Check that the cuff closure is tightened to prevent snow or wind entry. Make sure the outer glove is completely dry. Consider using a heat pack in the stash pocket for extra warmth.
Water seeping through the material
The GORE-TEX membrane may be compromised or the DWR treatment has worn off. Follow the care instructions for washing and consider reapplying a DWR treatment designed for waterproof gloves.
Removable liner is difficult to insert or remove
Ensure both the liner and the outer glove are fully dry and free of any debris. Lay the outer glove flat and carefully align the liner before sliding it in.
Touch screen functionality not working
Ensure the Storm Liner is clean and dry. Check that your device's screen is also clean. The effectiveness can vary slightly between different devices and screen protectors.
