Product Information

Full details

The Sealskinz Hanworth Solo Gloves are designed for adults seeking a versatile, lightweight hand-warming solution for autumn and mild winter conditions. These merino wool-based gloves excel at providing natural insulation and moisture management while maintaining high dexterity, making them ideal as standalone gloves or as a thermal base layer beneath bulkier waterproof mittens. Please note that while they offer excellent warmth for their weight, they are not waterproof and are best suited for dry weather or layering purposes.

FAQs

Are these gloves touchscreen compatible?

The Sealskinz Hanworth Solo Gloves do not feature integrated conductive fingertips; they are designed primarily for thermal performance and layering.

Can I wear these in the rain?

No, these gloves are not waterproof. They are best used as a dry base layer or for dry-weather activities.

What is the material composition?

The gloves are made from 98% Merino Wool and 2% Elastane to provide a balance of natural insulation and a comfortable, secure fit.

Will these gloves shrink in the wash?

To prevent shrinking, always wash in cool water and avoid the tumble dryer. Merino wool is delicate and should be handled with care.

Are these gloves gender-specific?

The Hanworth Solo Gloves are a unisex design, providing a comfortable fit for a wide range of adult hand sizes.

Can I use these for winter sports like skiing?

Yes, they make an excellent thermal base layer underneath waterproof ski or snowboard gloves to provide extra insulation on cold days.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel damp after intense activity

While the wool is moisture-wicking, it can become saturated during extreme exertion. Allow the gloves to air dry in a well-ventilated space between uses.

Fabric surface appears fuzzy or 'pilled'

Pilling is a natural characteristic of merino wool. Use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove pills and restore the smooth appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your merino wool gloves, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cool water using a gentle wool detergent to preserve the natural fibers.
  2. Drying: Lay the gloves flat to dry in a shaded area. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can cause shrinkage.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. To avoid moth damage during long-term storage, ensure they are clean before packing them away.
  4. Compatibility: These gloves are designed to be compatible with most standard heavy-duty outdoor gloves. If pairing with a waterproof shell, ensure the shell has enough room in the cuff to accommodate the layering.
