FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold weather?

Yes, the Rocklands Gloves are specifically designed for extreme cold weather, featuring Primaloft® Gold Bio Insulation and a merino wool lining for maximum warmth.

How do I clean my Sealskinz Rocklands Gloves?

Hand wash in cool water using a mild, non-detergent soap. Rinse thoroughly and hang to dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, and never machine wash or tumble dry.

Can I use my smartphone with these gloves on?

Yes, the index finger and thumb are equipped with touchscreen-friendly material, allowing you to operate most smartphones and other touch-enabled devices.

What is 'Fusion Control Technology'?

Fusion Control is a bonding process that uniquely joins the three layers of the glove (waterproof membrane, insulation, and outer fabric). This eliminates layer movement, providing a close, comfortable fit with enhanced dexterity and control.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

It is recommended to measure your hand circumference and compare it to the brand's sizing chart. A snug fit is important for the Fusion Control technology to work optimally and provide the best dexterity.

Are the insulation materials eco-friendly?

Yes, the Primaloft® Gold Bio Insulation used is made from 100% post-consumer recycled materials and is the first ever biodegradable synthetic insulation.

What is the palm made of?

The palm is made of sheepskin leather, which offers a durable and lasting grip, even in wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff or lose some flexibility after washing.

This is often temporary. Ensure you are using a mild, non-detergent soap and air-drying them away from heat. Gentle manipulation of the material while dry can help restore flexibility. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Waterproofing seems to be reduced over time.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on the outer fabric may have worn off. Clean the gloves thoroughly and apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof apparel, following the product's specific instructions.

Touchscreen functionality is not working reliably.

Ensure the touchscreen-friendly areas (index finger and thumb) are clean and dry. Sometimes, heavy moisture on the fabric can interfere with conductivity. If the issue persists after cleaning, there might be a defect in the conductive threads.

Inner lining feels uncomfortable or bunches up.

This may indicate an incorrect fit. Ensure you have the correct size; the non-slip lining is designed to work best with a snug fit. Try gently smoothing the lining from the outside after putting the glove on.

Care Instructions:

  2. Drying: Hang to dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Avoid machine drying, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane and materials.
