Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your SealSkinz Walpole mitts, start by testing the fit to ensure the fingers do not feel restricted, which can impede blood flow and reduce warmth. For care, avoid machine washing the leather palms, as this can strip natural oils. Instead, spot clean the exterior with a damp cloth. If the goatskin leather becomes stiff or dry, apply a leather conditioner specifically formulated for outdoor gear. Always store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack and the insulation to degrade.
