FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for very cold, icy conditions?

These gloves are designed for general winter warmth and frost protection. For extreme cold or icy conditions, consider layering with thinner gloves or seeking specialized extreme-weather gear.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the sheepskin, the Toscana trim, and the stitching. Hand-cleaning or professional leather cleaning is advised.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Measure the circumference of your palm just below the knuckles and compare it to the brand's sizing chart. Ensure a snug but not tight fit, as sheepskin will mold to your hand.

What is Toscana trim?

Toscana trim is made from the wool of young lambs, known for its exceptionally soft, silky, and dense fleece. It provides luxurious warmth and a distinctive fluffy texture.

How often should I condition the sheepskin?

Conditioning once or twice a year, or whenever the leather feels dry, is generally sufficient to maintain its softness and protect it.

Can these gloves be worn by men?

While designed with women in mind, the sizing and style may appeal to men. It's best to check the specific sizing guide and consider the intended fit.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff or dry

Apply a sheepskin or leather conditioner according to product instructions. Ensure they are not stored in excessively dry conditions.

Minor dirt or marks on the surface

Use a soft brush designed for leather or suede to gently remove loose dirt. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly.

Toscana trim appears matted

Gently brush the trim with a soft brush or a fine-toothed comb to restore its fluffy appearance.

Gloves feel tight after initial wear

Sheepskin naturally molds to the wearer's hand over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to stretch gently to your unique fit. Avoid forcing them on if they are significantly too small.

Cons

  • Requires specific care to maintain the leather and trim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed for adult female hands. Available in various sizes (e.g., Medium, Large, XL) to ensure a proper fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Avoid machine washing or soaking. Clean the sheepskin gently with a soft brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. The Toscana trim may require similar gentle cleaning.
  • Drying: If the gloves get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
  • Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality sheepskin or leather conditioner to keep the material soft and supple and to protect it from drying.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a breathable bag, to prevent mildew and protect the leather.
