Product Information

Full details

The Sealskinz Broome Waterproof Shooting Glove is designed for outdoor enthusiasts and shooting sports participants who need reliable hand protection in wet conditions. Its key benefit is maintaining optimal grip and dexterity, even when wet, thanks to the sheepskin suede palm and a 100% waterproof Aquasealz membrane. A potential caveat is the need for proper care to maintain the premium sheepskin properties over time. This glove features a durable, water-repellent outer, a fold-back finger for enhanced precision, and a moisture-wicking lining for comfort.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the polyester and COOLMAX lining provides insulation and warmth, making them suitable for cold weather activities. However, for extreme sub-zero temperatures, consider layering strategies or gloves with more robust insulation.

How do I determine my glove size?

Measure the circumference of your hand across the knuckles (excluding the thumb). Compare this measurement to the sizing guide provided by Sealskinz. Typically, M, L, and XL correspond to specific inch or centimeter ranges.

Can I use these gloves for activities other than shooting?

Absolutely. They are ideal for any outdoor activity requiring waterproof protection and dexterity, such as photography, hunting, fishing, hiking, or general outdoor work in wet conditions.

Will the sheepskin palm wear out quickly?

Premium sheepskin suede is known for its durability and actually improves with age when properly cared for. Regular conditioning and avoiding excessive abrasion will extend its lifespan significantly.

How waterproof is the Aquasealz membrane?

The Aquasealz membrane is designed to be 100% waterproof, preventing external moisture from penetrating the glove while remaining breathable to allow internal moisture (sweat) to escape.

What is the primary advantage of the fold-back finger?

The fold-back finger allows you to expose your fingertips for increased precision and dexterity when performing tasks like operating a camera, loading ammunition, or adjusting equipment, without having to remove the entire glove.

Troubleshooting

Hands feel damp inside the glove.

Ensure the glove is fully dry before wearing. Check that the fold-back finger is securely fastened. If persistent, the moisture-wicking lining may need time to draw perspiration away. For extreme conditions, consider if the glove's breathability is sufficient for your activity level.

Grip is reduced on the palm.

The sheepskin palm may require conditioning. Gently clean the palm with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a suitable leather conditioner specifically designed for suede and waterproof materials according to product instructions.

Difficulty with fine motor tasks (e.g., reloading).

Practice using the fold-back finger mechanism. Ensure the glove fits snugly but not too tightly, as this can restrict dexterity. Make sure the finger flap is secured properly when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves require no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: Available in sizes M, L, and XL, ensuring a proper fit for most users. The design is compatible with a wide range of shooting activities and general outdoor use, including photography and hunting.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and performance of the sheepskin palm and waterproof membrane:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing, as this can damage the materials.
  2. Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically, the sheepskin palm can be treated with a specialized leather conditioner to keep it supple and enhance its grip over time. Ensure the conditioner is suitable for suede and waterproof materials.
