FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for very cold weather?
The Hy5 Everyday Riding Gloves are designed for general use and offer some warmth. For extreme cold weather, additional insulated gloves may be more appropriate.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which typically involves measuring the circumference of your hand or the length from the tip of your middle finger to the base of your palm.
Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these gloves, as it can damage the leather and affect the glove's structure. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
What is the main benefit of the leather palm?
The leather palm provides a superior grip on the reins, offering better control and preventing slippage, while also offering durability and resistance to wear from reins.
How often should I condition the leather palm?
It is advisable to condition the leather palm every few months, or more frequently if you ride very often or in dry conditions, to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
Are these gloves suitable for children?
Yes, the product information indicates these gloves are suitable for the 'kids' age group, making them a good option for young riders.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the hook-and-loop wrist strap to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size.
Leather palm feels stiff after cleaning
Allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to restore suppleness.
