Product Information

Full details

These Simms Bugstopper UV Sun Protective Gloves are designed for adult anglers and outdoor enthusiasts seeking protection from both the sun and insects. The key benefit is comprehensive hand coverage with UPF 50 sun protection and Insect Shield® technology, while a potential caveat is the half-finger design which may not offer complete finger warmth in cooler conditions. Key features include durable Solar Flex® fabric, a built-in stripping guard, and extended cuffs.

FAQs

What material are the Simms Bugstopper gloves made from?

The gloves are made from Solar Flex® fabric, which is 92% polyester and 8% spandex, offering stretch and comfort. They also incorporate Insect Shield® technology and suede overlays on the fingers.

How long does the Insect Shield® protection last?

Insect Shield® provides long-lasting protection. While durable, its effectiveness may gradually decrease with frequent washing over time.

Are these gloves waterproof?

No, these gloves are designed for sun and insect protection and are not waterproof. They are made from breathable, stretch fabric.

What is the UPF rating of these gloves?

The gloves offer UPF 50 sun protection, blocking a significant portion of harmful UV rays.

Can I use these gloves for cold weather activities?

These are half-fingered gloves, primarily intended for sun and insect protection in warmer conditions. They do not provide significant insulation for cold weather.

What sizes are available?

The gloves are available in adult sizes ranging from Small to XLarge.

What are the color options?

The gloves are available in Cinder and Stone colors.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing chart and try a different size if available. The Solar Flex® fabric offers some stretch.

Reduced insect repellency.

Insect Shield® is designed for long-lasting protection but may diminish with excessive washing. Consider replacing gloves after extended use or if repellency is no longer effective.

Fingertips feel exposed during cooler weather.

These are half-fingered gloves; for full finger coverage and warmth, consider a different glove model or wear these in conjunction with liner gloves if needed.
