Product Information
Full details
The Sealskinz Congham Split Finger Mitten is designed for adult women who require maximum thermal protection in extreme, sub-zero winter conditions. By combining proprietary Aquasealz waterproof technology with high-loft Primaloft Gold insulation, these mittens offer superior warmth without sacrificing dexterity. While the premium goatskin leather construction provides exceptional durability and grip, users should note that the leather requires occasional conditioning to maintain its water-repellent properties and suppleness over time.

FAQs
Are these mittens fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature the signature Aquasealz technology, which provides a 100% waterproof barrier.
Can I use these for touchscreen devices?
The goat leather palm is designed for grip and durability, not for touchscreen sensitivity; you may need to remove the mitten to use a device.
How do I choose the right size?
Sealskinz sizing typically follows standard glove measurements; measure the circumference of your hand at the widest point just below the knuckles.
What is the best way to clean the mittens?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, follow instructions for leather-specific cleaners, but avoid machine washing.
Can I use these in extreme sub-zero temperatures?
Yes, the Primaloft Gold insulation is specifically engineered to thrive in sub-zero conditions.
Troubleshooting
Hands feeling damp inside the mitten
This is often caused by trapped sweat; ensure you are not overdressing, as the high insulation may cause overheating during high-intensity activity.
Leather palm becoming stiff or dry
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or balm to the palm area, massaging it in gently to restore natural oils.
Water penetrating the outer layer
Check if the leather needs a water-repellent treatment or if the Aquasealz membrane has been compromised by a puncture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Sealskinz Congham mittens, focus on proper storage and maintenance. After heavy use in wet conditions, air-dry the mittens away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the leather and the internal waterproof membrane. If the leather feels stiff, use a dedicated leather balm to restore its flexibility. Ensure that the elastic drawcords are pulled snug after you slide your hands in, ensuring the mitten sits well above the wrist. When storing for the off-season, use the built-in clasp to keep the pair together, and store in a cool, dry place to prevent mold.
