Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves fully submersible?

While the Aquasealz membrane is waterproof, the seams and cuff are designed for rain and splash protection. They are not intended for full underwater submersion.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

Hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the technical fabrics and the S-grip texture.

Will these keep my hands warm in freezing temperatures?

These are lightweight thermal gloves. They are ideal for temperatures just above or near freezing, but may not provide sufficient insulation for prolonged exposure to severe sub-zero conditions.

Does the touchscreen feature work on all fingers?

The touchscreen compatibility is optimized for specific fingers—typically the index finger and thumb—for precise control.

What material are these gloves made of?

The construction features a durable outer shell paired with a soft, insulating fleece interior for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Touchscreen sensitivity is low

Ensure the contact point on your finger is clean and dry. A thin layer of moisture or dirt on the glove's conductive area can interfere with the device's digitizer.

Water seems to be soaking through

If water is beading off less effectively, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on the outer shell may be worn. Allow the gloves to air dry completely to see if the internal Aquasealz membrane is still providing the primary waterproof barrier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These gloves are ready for immediate use out of the packaging. To ensure longevity and maintain the integrity of the waterproof membrane, hand wash the gloves using mild soap and cool water only. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the membrane's breathability and waterproof properties. Always allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, which can cause the fleece material to shrink or the membrane to delaminate. For storage, ensure they are completely dry to prevent odors or material degradation.
