HOW DO I KNOW WHAT SIZE WINTER GLOVES I WEAR? Use our size chart in the alternate images to find the best fit for your hand. You only need two measurements - tip of middle finger to bottom of palm and width of palm right below the fingers. These gloves run on the small side, so if between sizes select the next size up.
WHAT IS THE THINSULATE TEMPERATURE RATING ON COLD WEATHER GLOVES? These ski gloves come with 40 gram Thinsulate lining and are best for temperatures of 20 degrees Fahrenheit and up, making them the perfect weight for most regions in the United States with exception to those in extreme cold. Ski gloves for women or girls with 40 gram Thinsulate are thin enough to allow for great flexibility yet aren't too hot - heavier weight can lead to sweaty hands which isn't ideal in cold weather.
ARE THESE WINTER GLOVES WATERPROOF? The quick answer is "yes", but the more accurate answer is "yes, these winter gloves are waterproof under NORMAL use conditions". Normal use conditions include playing in the snow, shoveling snow, going to the store, all standard outdoor activities in the cold and snow. Feel good using your gloves outside and expect your hands to be warm and dry under these normal use situations.
HOW DO YOU WASH / CARE FOR THESE WATEPROOF THINSULATE GLOVES? While hand washing is ideal, it's not always practical. These gloves can go in the wash machine on delicate and be partially dried on delicate. We recommend NOT drying them fully and allow them to partially air dry. The exterior shell, liner, and filling are 100% polyester, and the Thinsulate is 65% Olefin/35% Polyester, but there is a synthetic waterproof shield between the shell and liner that could be compromised by extreme heat.
WHAT OTHER FEATURES DO THESE GLOVES HAVE? These gloves come with an elastic wrist band that allows you to expand the opening of the glove to make it easier to get them on and off, while also keeping your hands warm and dry. A 1.25" fleece cuff at the bottom of the glove adds warmth and also ensures limited cold air or snow get into the glove. Rubber Tech grip on the palm and thumb to increase durability. Two exterior hooks to keep gloves together in the off season.
