Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for extreme Arctic conditions?

Yes, the Rocklands Glove is designed for extreme cold weather conditions, featuring advanced waterproofing, insulation, and breathable technologies.

How do I clean the sheepskin leather palm?

Gently wipe the palm with a slightly damp cloth. Allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat.

Can I machine wash or dry these gloves?

No, machine washing or drying is not recommended as it can damage the waterproof membrane, insulation, and materials. Hand wash in cold water and hang dry.

What is Fusion Control?

Fusion Control is a technical bonding process that ensures the cohesive functionality of waterproofness, insulation, and breathability within the glove's layers.

How do I know if I have the right size?

A proper fit should be snug but not tight. Your fingers should reach the end of the glove without being constricting, and there should be minimal excess material in the palm or fingers to ensure dexterity.

Are the insulation materials eco-friendly?

The Primaloft® Gold Bio Insulation used in the glove is made from 100% post-consumer recycled materials.

Will these gloves keep my hands warm if they get wet inside?

While the primary function is to keep water out, the insulation and merino wool lining offer some warmth even if a small amount of moisture gets in, though it's best to keep them dry for optimal performance.

Troubleshooting

Reduced waterproofing

Ensure the glove is clean and dry. If performance degrades, consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment suitable for technical outdoor gear, following product instructions carefully.

Loss of grip on palm

Clean the sheepskin palm with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt or oils. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents.

Inconsistent insulation or cold spots

Verify the glove is properly sized and not too tight, which can restrict blood flow. Ensure the internal lining is smooth and free of bunching. If insulation appears compressed, allow the gloves to air out fully.

Touchscreen not responding

Ensure fingertips are clean and dry. The conductive properties may be affected by moisture or dirt. Try gently wiping the fingertips on a clean cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance.
  • Superior insulation for extreme cold.
  • Enhanced grip thanks to the sheepskin palm.
  • Comfortable and warm merino wool lining.
  • Maintains dexterity for outdoor tasks.
  • Touchscreen compatible for modern convenience.

Cons

  • May require specific care due to advanced materials.
  • Premium price point may not suit all budgets.
  • Sizing may need careful consideration for optimal fit.
  • Bulkier than non-insulated, non-waterproof alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The gloves are ready for use straight out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal performance and comfort; a proper fit prevents excess movement and enhances insulation.

Compatibility: These gloves are designed for general outdoor use in cold and wet conditions. They are touchscreen compatible with most modern smartphones and tablets.

Care: To maintain the waterproof and performance qualities:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and insulation.
  2. Drying: Hang dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or fires. Avoid machine drying, as high heat can degrade materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid folding them tightly in a way that creases the palm or membrane.
