| COMPONENT REPELLENCY |
All Wedze gloves and mittens have a water-repellent treatment that means their fabric does not absorb water, but instead ensures it slides across the surface. As a result, the fabric does not become saturated with water. It remains light and warm. A fabric becomes water-repellent thanks to a treatment applied to its outer surface. To remain effective, this treatment must be renewed every 2 to 3 washes with specific products that are available in our stores. |
| WATERPROOF MEMBRANE |
This ski glove has a water-resistant membrane that consists of a very thin polymer film, placed between the lining and the part of the glove in contact with the outside. This membrane acts as a barrier to water and makes the product waterproof.In addition, the outer materials of the product benefit from a water-repellent treatment that reduces water absorption.Only a rubber-type glove is watertight.A glove with a membrane, under extremely damp conditions, will have limited waterproofness. |
| WINDPROOFING |
All Wedze gloves and mittens are windproof. Did you know that the wind makes you feel colder? At an outside temperature of 0°C and a wind speed of 20 km/h, the temperature will feel like -10°C. Windproof fabrics limit windchill and cold caused by the speed of the sport. |
| ANTI-LOSS SYSTEM |
An elastic drawstring that goes around the wrist can be used to take off the gloves on ski lifts without losing them. |
| WHAT IS THE DEXTERITY OF A GLOVE/MITTEN? |
It reflects how easily you can handle objects while wearing the glove. All our gloves are given a dexterity score on a scale of 1 to 5 as part of a field test. Gloves with a dexterity score of 5 allow you to handle objects just as you would with bare hands.
To give our gloves a dexterity score, we tested how well we could remove and put on ski goggles, adjust the hooks on a ski boot and open and close a jacket. |
