FAQs

How do I choose the right size?

Measure the circumference of your hand across the knuckles and the length from the base of your palm to the tip of your middle finger. Compare these measurements to the brand's sizing chart to find the best fit. A snug fit is ideal.

Can this glove be used in the rain?

While the leather offers some natural resistance, it is not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to rain can saturate the leather, affecting grip and potentially damaging the material. It's best to avoid heavy rain or ensure the glove dries thoroughly afterward.

How long does the leather typically last?

With proper care and maintenance, a high-quality leather archery glove can last for several years of regular use. Consistent cleaning and conditioning are key to maximizing its lifespan.

Is this glove suitable for left-handed archers?

The product description does not specify handedness. Typically, archery gloves are designed for the shooting hand. If you are a left-handed archer, you would need a glove intended for the left hand.

Can I wash the glove in a washing machine?

No, never machine wash a leather glove. This will damage the leather, causing it to shrink, stiffen, and potentially disintegrate. Always follow the hand-wash/spot-clean care instructions.

Will this glove protect my fingers from heavy draw weights?

Yes, the durable leather construction is designed to protect your fingers from the friction and pressure of drawing a bowstring, including those with heavier draw weights. It helps ensure a smooth release and protects the skin.

Troubleshooting

Glove feels too tight or stiff.

Leather gloves often require a break-in period. Wear the glove for short periods during non-shooting activities to help it conform to your hand. Avoid excessive force when putting it on.

Grip feels slippery when hands are sweaty.

Ensure your hands are clean and dry before wearing the glove. For very humid conditions, consider using a small amount of rosin or chalk on the string for extra grip, but be mindful of over-application.

Leather appears dry or cracked.

The leather may need conditioning. Apply a quality leather conditioner specifically designed for gloves or apparel. Repeat as needed, typically every few months depending on usage and environment.

Stitching is coming loose.

For minor loose stitching, a needle and thread can be used for repair. For significant issues, consult a local leather repair specialist or consider replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This glove requires minimal setup. Simply slide your hand into the glove, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit. It is designed to be worn on the shooting hand.

Compatibility:

The Slazenger Archery Glove is compatible with most archery equipment and disciplines, including recurve bows, compound bows, and traditional bows. It is suitable for archers of all experience levels.

Care:

To maintain the quality and lifespan of your leather glove:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the glove with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid soaking the leather.
  2. Drying: If the glove becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
  3. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent it from drying out. Follow the conditioner manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Storage: Store the glove in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid folding it tightly, which can cause creases.
