FAQs

Are these gloves machine washable?

While hand washing is recommended to preserve the fabric technology, if you must machine wash, use a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild, non-biological detergent.

What does ARED 35/35K mean?

It is a technical rating indicating that the fabric provides 35,000mm of waterproofing and 35,000g/m2/24 hours of breathability.

Do these gloves come in different sizes?

Yes, they are available in multiple sizes ranging from XS to XL to accommodate a variety of hand sizes.

Are these suitable for children?

These are categorized as unisex adult gloves and may not provide an appropriate fit for children.

Can I use my touchscreen devices while wearing these?

The gloves are designed primarily for grip and warmth; they do not feature specific conductive fingertips for touchscreen use.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel cold despite the Thinsulate lining

Ensure the wrist is fully tightened to prevent heat loss, and check that your hands were dry before putting the gloves on.

Water begins to soak into the outer fabric

The DWR finish may have worn off; wash the gloves and apply a fresh waterproof treatment spray designed for synthetic fabrics.

Inner lining feels damp after use

This is likely moisture from perspiration; remove the gloves after your session and turn them inside out to air dry in a well-ventilated room.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof and breathable performance
  • Excellent thermal regulation with 3M Thinsulate
  • Robust grip functionality for winter sports
  • Secure cuff system keeps snow out
  • Durable polyester construction

Cons

  • May be too warm for mild or spring skiing
  • Limited to specific colour options
  • Requires proper care to maintain DWR finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your gloves, always check that the inner cuff is tucked properly under your jacket sleeve before tightening the wrist elastic. This creates a complete seal against the elements.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand wash in cold water using a mild technical detergent.
  • Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can compromise the DWR coating and breathability.
  • Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the Thinsulate lining.
  • Periodically re-apply a DWR spray if you notice water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric.
