Product Information

Full details

The Dare 2b Freeride Waterproof Mittens are ideal for active kids hitting the slopes for skiing or snowboarding, providing high-performance warmth and moisture protection in a durable, eco-conscious package. Featuring ARED 35/35K recycled waterproof fabric and 3M Thinsulate insulation, these mittens offer superior thermal regulation and element protection; however, because they are mittens rather than gloves, they offer less individual finger dexterity for tasks requiring fine motor control.

FAQs

Are these mittens suitable for snowboarding?

Yes, the durable palm grip and waterproof construction make them well-suited for both skiing and snowboarding.

How do I ensure the correct fit?

Measure the child's hand according to the sizing guide and ensure the fingers reach the end of the insulation without feeling pinched.

Can these be attached to a jacket?

Yes, they feature a secure clip attachment for keeping the mittens safe when not in use.

Are they machine washable?

It is best to hand clean or spot clean to protect the specialized membrane; please refer to the internal care label for specific garment instructions.

What is the benefit of the synthetic nubuck thumb?

The nubuck thumb provides a durable surface that aids in grip and provides extra reinforcement in a high-wear area.

Troubleshooting

Hands feeling damp inside

Ensure the wrist is fully tightened with the hook and loop adjuster to prevent snow ingress. If the interior remains damp, allow them to air dry fully in a well-ventilated area.

Difficulty gripping equipment

Check that the mitten is sized correctly; if the mitten is too large, the palm grip may shift. Ensure the hook and loop adjuster is snug to keep the mitten stable on the hand.

Build-up of dirt on palm

Wipe the textured palm with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive brushes as this may damage the gripping surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof and breathable performance
  • Excellent warmth with 3M Thinsulate lining
  • Durable palm grip for better equipment handling
  • Eco-friendly construction using recycled fabrics
  • High visibility features for added safety

Cons

  • Mittens provide less dexterity than individual-finger gloves
  • Available only in black, offering limited aesthetic choices
  • Requires proper sizing to ensure the inner lining doesn't bunch

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best performance, ensure the elasticated wrist is positioned correctly before tightening the hook and loop adjuster to prevent snow from getting inside. For care, it is recommended to spot clean the exterior with a damp cloth after use to remove salt or grit. If a deep clean is necessary, follow the care label instructions; generally, avoid harsh detergents and bleach, and always air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the waterproof membrane and insulation.
