Product Information
Full details
The Shires Suregrip Gloves are designed for adult equestrian enthusiasts seeking a reliable, comfortable solution for maintaining control of their reins in cooler weather. Featuring a flexible knitted construction and a specialized rubber pimple grip, these gloves provide excellent dexterity and stability while riding. While they are highly effective for grip and warmth, potential users should note that they are one-size-fits-all, which may not offer a tailored fit for those with exceptionally small or large hands.

FAQs
Are these gloves waterproof?
No, they are made from a knitted fabric and are designed for warmth and grip, not for waterproofing.
Can I use these for driving a car?
While intended for equestrian use, the grip provided by the rubber pimples can be useful for steering, though ensure they do not hinder your operation of vehicle controls.
Are these suitable for touchscreens?
These gloves are not designed with conductive material, so they will not work on smartphone touchscreens.
How do I determine if one size fits me?
The gloves use a highly stretchy knit material designed to accommodate average adult hand sizes comfortably.
Can I put these in the dryer?
It is not recommended, as high heat can damage the rubber pimples and cause the knit fabric to shrink significantly.
Troubleshooting
Rubber pimples are losing their tackiness
Clean the palm area with a damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and dried horse sweat.
Gloves feel slightly loose
As they are a one-size knitted item, washing them in warm water (per garment label instructions) may provide a slight shrink to tighten the fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These gloves are ready to use straight out of the packaging. To maintain the integrity of the rubber grip, it is recommended to hand wash the gloves in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the rubber pimples. After washing, reshape the gloves while damp and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the knitted fabric to shrink or the rubber to crack.
