Care of Heated Gloves/Gloves with Leather Palms (non-machine washable)Updated 2 months ago


Cleaning our heated and leather palmed glove models can be a little more labour intensive than our regular gloves, however, there are steps that can help keep them fresh and pleasant to wear.
 
Any heavy debris on the outer layer of the gloves can be removed with a dry cloth or a soft brush. They should be hand washed only with a damp cloth, mild detergent and lukewarm water. Use light circular motions to remove dirt and debris to clean.
 
The gloves should then be drip-dried away from any direct sources of heat such as fires, radiators, and heaters. 

They should not be twisted or wrung.
 
The insides of the gloves can be cleaned and refreshed by using a cleaning/freshening spray -- these can be sourced in shops and online and would be products such as Dettol Spray & Wear which are designed to be gentle, anti-bacterial, and will cleanse and freshen items. 
Any spray should be used sparingly and the gloves should not become saturated inside.
 
The leather palm can be kept in a soft and preserved condition by using a leather conditioner in this area.
