FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for very cold winter days?
The LeMieux Waterproof Lite Gloves are designed for chilly to moderately cold conditions. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, a heavier insulated glove might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the silicone palms?
You can clean the silicone palms by gently wiping them with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which could damage the silicone.
Can I machine wash these gloves?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the Thinsulate insulation and the waterproof micro-membrane. Always hand wash in cool water.
What is the benefit of the Thinsulate insulation?
Thinsulate insulation is known for providing excellent warmth while being lightweight and breathable, allowing for comfort without bulk.
How long should the waterproof feature last?
With proper care and avoiding damage, the waterproof membrane should maintain its effectiveness for a considerable time. Regular hand washing and air drying are key to preserving it.
Do these gloves offer protection against impact?
These gloves are designed for warmth, waterproofing, and grip. They do not offer significant impact protection.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are new, they may need a short break-in period. Avoid stretching them excessively when wet.
Hands feel damp after use
While designed to be breathable, extreme exertion can lead to sweat build-up. Ensure the gloves are completely dry before use and consider if the temperature is within the optimal range for this model.
Reduced grip on reins
Check the silicone palms for dirt or debris. Clean them gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions. Ensure the gloves are fully dry, as moisture can affect grip.
Water seeping through
Inspect the gloves for any tears or damage to the fabric or seams. If the waterproof membrane is compromised, the gloves may need replacement.
