Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these mittens touchscreen compatible?

Yes, because the design is fingerless, you can use your bare fingertips on any touchscreen device.

Can I wear these while skiing?

They work best as a base layer under a thicker, waterproof ski glove to add an extra layer of warmth.

Will they shrink in the wash?

Wool can shrink if exposed to high heat. Always wash on a cold, delicate cycle and avoid using a tumble dryer.

Are these unisex?

Yes, these are designed as a unisex product suitable for all adults.

What is the primary material?

These are crafted from high-quality merino wool, known for its temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking properties.

Troubleshooting

Wool fiber pilling (small balls forming)

This is a natural occurrence with wool. Use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove pills.

Mittens feeling damp

While merino manages moisture well, it can become saturated in heavy rain. Ensure you wear a waterproof over-mitten if the forecast indicates precipitation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These mittens do not require any complex setup; they are ready for use immediately. To ensure longevity and performance, follow these care guidelines:

Washing: Machine wash at low temperatures (30C) using a wool-specific detergent. Do not use fabric softeners.
Drying: Air dry only. Lay the mitts flat in a shaded area to avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, which can shrink or damage the wool fibers.
Storage: Ensure the mittens are completely dry before storing them in a cool, dark place to prevent moth damage and fiber degradation.
Compatibility: They are designed to fit under most standard-sized waterproof or windproof outer gloves. Ensure your outer layer has enough room to accommodate the added thickness of the Merino layer.
