Product Information

Full details

Designed for active adults who engage in high-output outdoor sports, the DexShell Ultra Thin Waterproof Running Gloves offer the perfect balance of weather protection and tactile sensitivity for cool, wet environments. These gloves feature a sophisticated, fully laminated construction that keeps water out while allowing sweat to evaporate, making them an essential tool for runners and athletes. However, because they are intentionally designed for breathability and dexterity rather than heavy insulation, they are not suitable for freezing winter temperatures or prolonged stationary exposure in extreme cold.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for heavy snow?

No, these are designed for cool, wet conditions in the 5°C to 15°C range. They do not have the insulation required for deep snow or sub-zero temperatures.

Can I operate a touchscreen while wearing them?

While the ultra-thin design offers great dexterity, they do not feature dedicated capacitive touch-sensitive pads, so performance on screens may vary.

How should I dry them after a rainy run?

Air dry them naturally in a well-ventilated area. Avoid radiators or direct heat, which can damage the membrane.

Are they machine washable?

We recommend hand washing to protect the integrity of the waterproof laminate, though a gentle machine cycle with mild soap is generally acceptable.

Are these gloves windproof?

They provide some wind resistance due to the construction, but they are primarily engineered for waterproofness and breathability rather than wind-blocking.

Troubleshooting

Hands feel cold despite gloves being worn

Ensure you are using these gloves within the recommended 5°C to 15°C range; they lack the insulation needed for lower temperatures.

Water appears to be getting through the gloves

Check for physical tears or punctures in the outer fabric. If the gloves are clean, ensure they are pulled fully over the wrists to prevent water from running down inside.

Gloves feel damp inside

If the exterior is dry but the interior is damp, it is likely accumulated perspiration. Ensure the outer layer is allowed to breathe during use and avoid wearing them in temperatures above the recommended range.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally thin profile provides excellent tactile feedback
  • Fully waterproof yet breathable construction
  • High level of flexibility for natural range of motion
  • Minimal bulk makes them easy to stow in running belts or pockets

Cons

  • Not suitable for extreme freezing temperatures
  • Offers little wind-chill protection compared to insulated winter gear
  • Thin material may be prone to abrasion if used for heavy manual labor

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the waterproof membrane, avoid contact with sharp or abrasive surfaces. When cleaning, hand wash the gloves in cool water with a mild detergent, or use a gentle cycle in a washing machine if absolutely necessary. Always allow the gloves to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or open fires, as excessive heat can damage the laminate bond and the waterproof membrane. Do not wring or twist the gloves aggressively to remove excess water, as this can strain the internal seams.
