Setup, Compatibility & Care
These gloves are ready to use immediately out of the packaging. No preparation or break-in period is typically required, though the material will soften slightly with regular use. To maintain the gloves:
- Cleaning: Shake out loose dirt after every use. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the gloves in water, as this can degrade the natural materials and affect the lining.
- Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent UV degradation of the exterior fibers.
