FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for winter riding?

The Rukka Apollo 2.0 Gloves offer excellent waterproofing and windproofing, making them suitable for cool and wet conditions. For extreme cold, consider adding a liner or looking for insulated winter-specific gloves.

How do I find the right size?

Measure the circumference of your palm and the length of your middle finger. Compare these measurements to the Rukka sizing chart for the Apollo 2.0 gloves to find your best fit. A snug fit is recommended for optimal performance and touchscreen accuracy.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and waterproof membrane. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and always air dry.

What is the warranty period for these gloves?

Please refer to the retailer or Rukka's official warranty information for the specific warranty period and terms applicable to your purchase.

How does the goatskin leather contribute to performance?

Goatskin leather is known for its softness, flexibility, and durability. It provides a comfortable feel, excellent grip on controls, and helps in maintaining dexterity while offering good abrasion resistance.

Will the touchscreen feature work with gloves on?

Yes, the gloves are designed with a touchscreen system that allows you to operate compatible devices like smartphones and navigation units without removing them.

Troubleshooting

Touchscreen not responding

Ensure the glove surface is clean and dry. Try pressing more firmly or adjusting the angle of your finger. Confirm your device's touchscreen is functioning correctly without the glove.

Hands feel wet inside

Check if the gloves are properly sealed at the wrist and if there are any punctures or tears in the waterproof membrane. If the issue persists, the waterproof barrier may be compromised.

Gloves feel too tight or restrictive

Leather gloves can take time to break in. Wear them for short periods initially. If they remain uncomfortably tight after a break-in period, they may be the wrong size.

Reduced grip on handlebars

Clean the palm area of the gloves to remove any residue or conditioning product. Ensure the gloves are fully dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Rukka Apollo 2.0 Gloves are designed for immediate use upon purchase. Ensure you have selected the correct size for a comfortable and secure fit. The gloves should fit snugly without being restrictive, allowing for full range of motion in your fingers.

Compatibility: These gloves are compatible with most touchscreen devices, including smartphones and GPS navigation units, thanks to the integrated touchscreen system. Performance may vary slightly based on the device's screen protector and the glove's condition.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Rukka Apollo 2.0 Gloves:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Allow the gloves to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the leather and waterproof membrane.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically treat the goatskin leather with a suitable leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking. Follow the conditioner manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
