Product Information

Full details

The Trekmates Thaw DRY Gloves are designed for adult outdoor adventurers who need reliable thermal protection without the bulk of traditional winter gear. Featuring Primaloft Gold Eco insulation and DRY Protect technology, these gloves offer an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and waterproof reliability, making them ideal for hiking or commuting in unpredictable weather; however, users should note that they are optimized for packability, which may prioritize lightweight materials over the heavy-duty abrasion resistance found in thick leather mountaineering gloves.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves fully waterproof?

Yes, they feature Trekmates DRY Protect technology with a 5000/5000 waterproof/breathable rating.

Can I use these for skiing?

These are ideal for light snow activities and hiking; however, they lack the extra padding and heavy-duty abrasion protection required for high-speed skiing or snowboarding.

What is the insulation made of?

They use Primaloft Gold Eco, which is a high-performance synthetic insulation that mimics down but keeps you warm when damp.

How do I know if they fit correctly?

The gloves should feel snug but not restrictive. You should have enough room to wiggle your fingers easily, which helps blood circulation and warmth.

Do these come with a storage bag?

Yes, each pair includes a compact stuff bag with an integrated key clip.

Are they machine washable?

Hand washing is highly recommended to protect the waterproof membrane and the internal structure of the gloves.

Troubleshooting

Touchscreen sensitivity is low

Ensure the glove is pulled tight against your finger for maximum contact and ensure the fabric is dry.

Moisture inside the glove

This is often caused by trapped perspiration during high-exertion activities; ensure you are not overheating and adjust your layering.

DWR finish wearing off

Wash the gloves to remove surface dirt and treat with a recommended PFC-free re-waterproofing spray.

Pros and Cons

  • Extremely compact and lightweight for easy storage
  • High-loft warmth without restrictive bulk
  • Waterproof and breathable performance
  • Eco-friendly PFC-free water repellent finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your Thaw DRY Gloves, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Storage: Always ensure the gloves are completely dry before storing them in the provided stuff bag to prevent mold or mildew.
  2. Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water with a mild, technical-specific detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach that can damage the waterproof membrane.
  3. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can damage the insulation fibers and the DWR coating.
  4. DWR Maintenance: If you notice water no longer beads off the surface, use a technical fabric re-waterproofing spray to restore the FC-free DWR finish.
  5. Compatibility: The elasticated wrist and stretch cuff are designed to fit under most jacket sleeves to create a seamless heat-trapping seal.
