FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for very young children?
The Ziener 1808 GTX Glv Jn61 gloves are designed for kids. Always check the sizing guide to ensure a proper and safe fit for your child's age and hand size.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Measure your child's hand from the wrist to the tip of the longest finger and compare it to the brand's sizing chart. The glove should fit snugly without being too tight, allowing for easy finger movement.
Can these gloves be machine washed?
It is generally recommended to hand wash these gloves to preserve the integrity of the Gore-Tex membrane and insulation. Refer to the care label for specific instructions.
What makes Gore-Tex material effective?
Gore-Tex is a waterproof yet breathable membrane. It prevents liquid water (like rain or snow) from entering the glove while allowing water vapor (sweat) to escape, keeping hands dry from both the outside and the inside.
How often should I re-waterproof the gloves?
Re-waterproofing is typically needed when you notice water no longer beads up on the surface and the outer fabric starts to wet out. This can vary depending on usage frequency and environmental conditions, but often once a season or as needed is sufficient.
What is the difference between the black, pink, and other color variants?
The core functionality and technology (like Gore-Tex) are expected to be the same across variants. The primary difference is the color and potentially minor aesthetic details. The model number and GTIN may also differ.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel damp inside
Ensure gloves are completely dry before use. If dampness persists, check for external moisture entry or consider if the insulation may be saturated. Follow proper drying procedures. If the issue continues, the waterproofing may be compromised.
Difficulty putting gloves on
Verify that the correct size has been selected. Ensure the inner lining is not twisted. For children, practice putting them on and taking them off can help.
Reduced warmth
Check for any tears or damage to the material. Ensure the insulation has not become compressed or wet. Proper drying is crucial for restoring loft and warmth.
Outer material feels stiff after washing
Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Air dry thoroughly away from direct heat. A specialized fabric conditioner for outdoor gear might help restore flexibility if needed, but check product compatibility first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These gloves require no assembly. Ensure you select the correct size for your child by referring to sizing charts or trying them on. The gloves should fit snugly but not be too tight, allowing for full finger movement.
Compatibility: The Ziener 1808 GTX Glv Jn61 gloves are designed for general cold-weather use and winter sports. They are compatible with any winter outerwear and suitable for children of varying ages within the specified range.
Care Instructions: To maintain the performance of the Gore-Tex membrane and the gloves' material:
- Cleaning: Hand wash with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the membrane and reduce waterproofing.
- Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Do not machine dry. Lay the gloves flat or hang them to air dry away from direct heat sources. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.
- Re-waterproofing: Periodically, you may consider using a specific spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof-casual or sports apparel to refresh the water repellency, following the product's instructions.
