Product Information
Full details
The Fox Defend Lo Pro Fire MTB Gloves are designed for mountain bikers who ride in cold, challenging weather conditions and require a blend of warmth and tactile feedback. These unisex gloves feature a fleece-lined ripstop back and a conductive palm to ensure your hands stay warm without sacrificing your ability to handle the bike or use touchscreen devices, though the performance-focused, low-profile fit may feel restrictive for those who prefer a looser, bulkier winter glove.

FAQs
Are these gloves waterproof?
They feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to shed water and mud, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.
Can I wash these in a machine?
Hand washing is highly recommended to protect the integrity of the fleece lining and the conductive materials.
Are these suitable for deep winter riding?
They are designed for cool to cold weather. If you ride in extreme sub-zero temperatures, you may need a dedicated heavy-duty thermal glove.
Does the fleece lining add too much bulk?
No, the fleece is engineered for a low-profile fit to maintain dexterity and bar feel.
What should I do if the hook and loop closure loses grip?
Clean any lint or debris out of the hook fastener using a small brush or comb to restore its original stickiness.
Troubleshooting
Touchscreen functionality is unresponsive
Ensure your fingers are positioned correctly against the contact points and verify that the glove palm is not overly dirty or wet.
Water is soaking through the glove
The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the gloves and apply a fabric-safe DWR re-waterproofing spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Fox Defend Lo Pro Fire gloves, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the hook and loop cuff is tightened after you put the gloves on, but avoid overtightening, which can restrict blood flow and decrease warmth.
- Cleaning: Hand wash in cold water using a mild, technical-friendly detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners that can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not place these gloves in a tumble dryer, as high heat can damage the conductive material on the palms and the TPU gussets.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
