Product Information

Full details

The Husqvarna Functional Winter Gloves are designed for professionals working in cold and wet outdoor conditions, offering reliable warmth and protection. Their key benefit lies in keeping hands dry and comfortable thanks to a water-repellent membrane and Thinsulate lining, while the touch-screen compatibility adds significant convenience. A potential caveat is that while designed for warmth, extreme sub-zero temperatures might still require additional layering.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for very deep snow or ice handling?

While the gloves offer good warmth and water repellency, for prolonged deep snow immersion or handling ice without breaks, consider additional waterproofing or layering. They are designed for general cold and wet work conditions.

What does EN 511 and EN 388:2016 certification mean?

EN 511 certifies performance against cold (convective, contact cold, and water penetration). EN 388:2016 certifies resistance to mechanical risks like abrasion, cutting, tearing, and puncture. These certifications indicate the gloves have met specific safety and performance benchmarks.

How do I choose the right size?

The gloves are available in sizes 8, 10, and 12. It's recommended to measure your hand circumference and compare it to the brand's sizing chart, or try them on if possible, to ensure a snug but comfortable fit.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these gloves. Hand washing in cold water with mild soap is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the water-repellent membrane and insulation.

How durable is the touch screen feature?

The touch screen feature is integrated into the fabric of the index finger. While designed for regular use, excessive abrasion or rough handling on the fingertip area could potentially reduce its effectiveness over time.

What is Thinsulate and micro fleece lining?

Thinsulate is a synthetic insulation material known for its warmth and thinness. Micro fleece is a soft, lightweight synthetic fabric that provides additional comfort and thermal insulation.

Troubleshooting

Hands still feel cold.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If hands are still cold, consider using a thinner liner glove underneath for added insulation in extreme conditions.

Touch screen function is not working.

Ensure the touch-sensitive area of the index finger is clean and dry. Wipe the screen gently. Note that very dirty screens or certain screen protectors might reduce sensitivity.

Gloves feel stiff after washing.

Ensure the gloves are fully air-dried away from heat. Flex your hands while wearing them to help restore suppleness. Avoid machine drying.

Snow or water seeps into the glove.

Check that the knitted elastic cuff is snug against the wrist and that there are no tears in the glove material. Ensure the cuff is properly positioned over or under sleeves depending on your preference for sealing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth and insulation for cold conditions.
  • Water-repellent construction keeps hands dry.
  • Convenient touch screen compatibility.
  • Secure fit prevents snow entry.
  • Meets relevant safety standards for cold and mechanical hazards.

Cons

  • May not be sufficient for extreme sub-zero temperatures without additional liners.
  • Touch screen sensitivity can vary with device and finger moisture.
  • Durability on the touch-sensitive fingertip could be a long-term concern with heavy use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves require no setup. They are ready to wear directly out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: The primary compatibility feature is the touch screen-friendly index finger, designed to work with most capacitive touch screens on smartphones, tablets, and GPS devices. Performance may vary based on screen protectors or device sensitivity.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash with cold water and mild soap. Do not bleach.
  2. Drying: Air dry thoroughly. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
