Full details
The DexShell Ultra Flex Waterproof Gloves are engineered for outdoor enthusiasts, such as cyclists and hikers, who require a balance of weather protection and manual dexterity. These unisex gloves feature a seamless construction designed to keep hands dry in wet climates, though users should be aware that the high-performance waterproof membrane may limit overall breathability during high-intensity exertion in warm temperatures.

FAQs
Are these gloves touchscreen compatible?
While they offer excellent dexterity, they are not specifically advertised as having capacitive touchscreen fingertips. You may need to remove them to use a smartphone.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No. Heat from a dryer will damage the waterproof membrane and the structural integrity of the glove material.
Are these suitable for heavy winter use?
They are designed for cool to cold, wet conditions. They are not rated for extreme arctic or high-altitude winter conditions.
How do I determine my size?
Measure the circumference of your dominant hand just below the knuckles and consult the brand's specific sizing chart for the best fit.
Can I use these for gardening?
While durable, the waterproof membrane can be punctured by thorns or sharp objects, which would ruin the waterproof seal.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel damp inside
This is often caused by perspiration buildup. Ensure you are not wearing the gloves in temperatures too high for their insulation level.
Waterproofing seems to be failing
Check the outer shell for any punctures or abrasion damage. If the outer layer is intact, ensure you have followed the correct hand-washing and drying procedures.
Pros and Cons

- Reliable waterproof protection in wet weather

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the waterproof membrane, proper care is essential. Do not machine wash these gloves; instead, hand wash them in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, as this can damage the internal membrane. Always air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources such as radiators or open fires, as high heat can compromise the bonded layers. When choosing a size, ensure a snug fit that allows for finger movement without excess material at the fingertips, which can impede dexterity.
