GLOVE/MITTEN CARE GUIDE
After a day on the slopes, your gloves or mittens could be damp or very wet, depending on your day! It's essential to care for your ski gloves and mittens correctly, so follow these tips.
- Always dry your gloves at room temperature or in a drying room – avoid heaters, dryers and ovens. You can’t speed up the process!
- Gloves dry best in an upright position.
- Do not turn gloves and mittens inside out. The liner, insulation and fingers of gloves can be challenging to put back into place.
WATERPROOF INSERTS
All our snow gloves and mittens have a water-repellant coating. Two of the better compositions are Gore-Tex and Hipora.
Gore-Tex is designed with high waterproofing but also windproof and breathable protection.
Hipora inserts are three-layer microporous fabric that is both waterproof and breathable.
INSULATION
Insulation is essential to keep your fingers warm to ski and snowboard on the mountain all day. Two insulation compositions for snow gloves, mittens, and clothing are Primaloft and Thinsulate.
Primaloft® Gold insulation offers warmth without compromising performance. Lightweight, water-resistant, 4-way stretch, and breathable, encourage comfort throughout intense activity on the slopes.
3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation traps body heat with thin microfibres allowing moisture to escape. The extremely thin yet warm technology allows greater performance and movement.
