FAQs
Is this set suitable for extreme cold?
Yes, the set is designed for cold climates, featuring insulative lining and a design that promotes heat retention in the mittens. For extreme conditions, consider adding a base layer.
How do I know which size to choose?
The set is available in S/M and L/XL. It is recommended to measure your head circumference for the hat and hand size for the mittens to determine the best fit.
Can the hat and mittens be washed in a machine?
It is recommended to hand wash the set with a mild detergent in cold water. Avoid machine washing, bleach, ironing, and tumble drying to preserve the material and waterproof properties.
What does 'Aquasealz technology' mean?
Aquasealz technology refers to the waterproof and breathable membrane integrated into the hat, providing protection from external moisture while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape.
Are the mittens touchscreen compatible?
The product description does not specify touchscreen compatibility. The S-Print palm is designed for grip, not for use with touchscreens.
How do the glove clips work?
The glove clips are designed to attach the pair of mittens together, preventing them from getting separated when not in use, which is useful for storage or travel.
What materials are used in the set?
The hat's outer is acrylic knit, the mid-section is an Aquasealz membrane, and the interior lining is polyester microfleece. The mittens are made from acrylic knit.
Troubleshooting
Hat or mittens feel damp inside after prolonged use.
This can occur due to high exertion levels causing significant perspiration. Ensure the garment is fully dry before next use. Proper drying after washing is crucial for membrane performance.
Water appears to be penetrating the hat.
Check for any visible damage to the fabric or membrane. Ensure the hat is properly washed and dried according to care instructions, as residual detergents or improper drying can affect performance. If damage is present, the waterproof integrity may be compromised.
Mittens feel less warm than expected.
Ensure the mittens are completely dry. The mitten design relies on trapping air and transferring heat; if damp, their insulating properties are reduced. Consider wearing a thin liner glove underneath for added warmth in extreme cold.
