FAQs

What specific chainsaw protection class do these gloves meet?

The gloves meet EN ISO 11393-4:2019 class 0 (16 m/s) or class 1 (20 m/s), depending on the specific model variant, and EN 388:2016 for general glove protection.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and synthetic materials. Hand clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and air dry.

How do I know which size to order?

Refer to the specific sizing guide provided by Husqvarna for these gloves. Measure your hand circumference and length as indicated. Available sizes typically range from 7 to 12.

Are these gloves completely waterproof?

The goat leather palm is naturally water-resistant, offering protection against light moisture. However, the gloves are not fully waterproof. The fabric backhand may absorb water if exposed to heavy rain for extended periods.

How durable is the touchscreen feature?

The touchscreen functionality is integrated into the knuckle material. With proper care and avoiding excessive abrasion, this feature should remain effective for the lifespan of the gloves.

What is the main difference between the class 0 and class 1 variants?

Class 1 (20 m/s) offers a higher level of protection against chainsaw chain speed compared to Class 0 (16 m/s).

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing chart. If between sizes, consider the larger size for more flexibility, though this may slightly reduce dexterity.

Touchscreen functionality is inconsistent.

Ensure the touchscreen-compatible knuckle area is clean and dry. Some screen protectors or heavily soiled screens may affect performance. Test on different devices.

Leather palm feels stiff after drying.

Apply a quality leather conditioner to the palm area after the gloves have completely air-dried. This will restore suppleness.

Stitching appears to be coming loose.

Inspect the stitching. Minor fraying can sometimes be trimmed carefully. If significant stitching failure occurs, contact the retailer or manufacturer regarding warranty.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent protection against chainsaw cuts and abrasions.
  • Comfortable for long working periods due to breathable materials.
  • Allows for smartphone use without removing gloves.
  • Durable construction with quality leather and stitching.
  • Secure and adjustable fit for good dexterity.

Cons

  • Specific sizing available (e.g., 7-12 or 8-10) requires careful selection.
  • May be warmer in very hot conditions compared to lighter gloves.
  • Requires proper care to maintain leather properties.
  • Only available in specific sizes, potentially limiting options for some users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These gloves require no setup. Simply select the correct size for your hand. Ensure the hook-and-loop closure is fastened securely but comfortably for optimal fit and movability.

Compatibility:

These gloves are designed for chainsaw operation and general outdoor work. The index finger is specifically designed to be compatible with most standard capacitive touch screens found on smartphones and tablets.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the gloves in water. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a damp cloth, then dry immediately.
  • Drying: If the gloves become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight) to prevent the leather from becoming stiff or cracking.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid folding them sharply.
  • Leather Care: Periodically treat the leather palm with a suitable leather conditioner to maintain its suppleness and water resistance.
