FAQs

Are these gloves waterproof?

The FOX Defend Wind Gloves are designed to be windproof, not fully waterproof. They offer protection against wind and light moisture but are not intended for use in heavy rain.

What size should I order?

It is recommended to measure the circumference of your palm and the length of your middle finger, then compare these measurements to the FOX sizing chart available on their official website or from authorized retailers to find the best fit.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water, and air dry to preserve the glove's materials and functionality.

How do the gloves provide warmth?

The gloves use a windproof material on the back of the hand which blocks cold air from penetrating, helping to retain the warmth generated by your hands.

What does AX Suede™ mean?

AX Suede™ is a synthetic material used for the palm that offers durability, grip, and importantly, conductivity, allowing you to operate touch screen devices.

Are these gloves suitable for winter?

These gloves are primarily designed for wind resistance and moderate warmth. For deep winter conditions with heavy snow or freezing temperatures, gloves with more substantial insulation might be required.

Troubleshooting

Touch screen not responding

Ensure your fingertips are fully covering the AX Suede™ palm area. Clean the palm area with a slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that might interfere with conductivity. Check that the glove is not overly saturated with water, as this can affect touch screen function.

Gloves feel too tight or restrictive

Loosen the hook and loop closure for a more relaxed fit. If the gloves remain uncomfortably tight, ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the brand's sizing chart and measuring your hand circumference accurately.

Wind protection seems insufficient

Verify that the windproof material on the back of the hand is not damaged. For extremely cold conditions beyond the intended operating range of these wind-resistant gloves, consider layering with thinner liner gloves if space allows, or opt for a more heavily insulated model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These gloves are designed for immediate use. Simply slide your hands into them, ensuring a comfortable fit. Adjust the hook and loop closure on the cuff for a secure feel. For optimal touch screen performance, ensure your fingertips align with the AX Suede™ material on the palm.

Compatibility: The FOX Defend Wind Gloves are compatible with most touch screen devices, including smartphones and GPS units, due to the conductive AX Suede™ palm. They are suitable for adult riders participating in motocross, trail riding, or other off-road activities.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your gloves:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
  2. Drying: Air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine dry.
