FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, the Fransham Ski Gloves feature Primaloft® Gold Insulation, which is designed for excellent warmth in sub-zero temperatures.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. Measure your hand circumference and length to find the best fit.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, insulation, and waterproof membrane. Hand clean gently as per care instructions.

What makes Aquasealz technology different?

Aquasealz technology provides a combination of complete waterproofness with high breathability, ensuring hands remain dry from both external moisture and internal perspiration.

How does the glove clip work?

The clasp allows you to fasten one glove to the other, making them easier to store together and less likely to get lost.

What is the benefit of the goatskin leather palm?

Goatskin leather offers a natural grip, durability, and a premium feel, enhancing control and comfort while skiing.

Do these gloves come in other colors?

While this guide focuses on the Orange variant, similar models may be available in other colors from the brand.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp inside.

Ensure the gloves are fully dry before use. If dampness persists after drying, the waterproof membrane may be compromised; consider professional assessment or replacement.

Reduced grip on ski poles.

Clean the leather palm with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue. Ensure the leather is properly conditioned.

Elastic drawcord is loose or not functioning.

Check for any obstructions in the drawcord channel. If the elastic has lost its tension, it may require professional repair or replacement.

Leather feels stiff.

Apply a leather conditioner suitable for goatskin gloves and allow it to absorb fully. Avoid exposing leather to extreme heat.
