Congham - Black

Yes, the Congham mittens feature Aquasealz technology, which is designed to be both waterproof and breathable, keeping your hands dry from external moisture while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape.

The split-finger design allows heat to transfer more effectively between your fingers, enhancing warmth compared to a standard mitten. It also provides greater dexterity, allowing for better grip and manipulation of small objects or equipment compared to a full mitten.

These mittens are designed for sub-zero temperatures and extreme cold, thanks to the Primaloft® Gold Insulation. They are ideal for harsh winter conditions.

Hand wash the mittens in cold water with mild soap. For the leather palm, use a dedicated leather conditioner periodically to maintain its suppleness and prevent drying. Do not tumble dry; air dry away from direct heat.

Absolutely. The robust construction, waterproofing, and insulation make them suitable for various cold-weather activities such as snowboarding, winter hiking, mountaineering, or simply for staying warm during outdoor work or leisure in very cold environments.

The elastic drawcords at the cuffs allow you to cinch the mittens for a secure fit, preventing cold air from entering and warm air from escaping, thereby maximizing warmth and comfort.

This guide focuses on the 'Congham - Black' variant. Other sizes such as Medium and Large, and a specific XL size, are available under different product codes (MPNs) within the Sealskinz Congham WP Thermal Ski Split Finger Mitten range.

Ensure the elastic drawcords are tightened to create a snug seal around the wrists, preventing cold air ingress. Verify that the split-finger design is comfortable and not restricting circulation. Consider if the external temperature is within the intended operating range of the insulation.

While waterproof, heavy sweating can lead to internal moisture. Ensure the mittens are completely dry before use. Allow for adequate ventilation during strenuous activity if possible. Ensure the waterproof membrane is intact and not compromised.

The leather palm requires conditioning. Apply a small amount of a specialized leather conditioner and gently rub it into the leather. Allow it to absorb and then wipe off any excess. Repeat as needed.

Ensure the clasps are aligned correctly before attempting to fasten or unfasten. If they feel stiff, gently work them back and forth. Avoid forcing them to prevent damage.
