Swelter Plus Glove - Men's

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a treatment applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant, allowing water to bead up and roll off instead of soaking in. This is especially beneficial for outdoor gear like gloves, as it helps keep your hands dry in wet conditions, enhancing your comfort and performance during outdoor activities.

Primaloft Gold is a synthetic insulation that offers superior warmth without the bulk. Unlike traditional insulation, it is lightweight, compressible, and water-resistant, making it ideal for cold-weather gear. This means you can stay warm without feeling weighed down, allowing for greater mobility and comfort during your outdoor adventures.

Neoprene is a flexible and durable synthetic rubber that offers excellent insulation against cold temperatures. In gloves, neoprene cuffs create a snug fit around the wrist, preventing cold air from entering and keeping warmth inside. This ensures that your hands stay warm and comfortable, even in chilly conditions.

Softshell fabric is designed to be stretchy, breathable, and water-resistant, making it ideal for outdoor clothing. It provides comfort and flexibility while still offering some protection against the elements. Softshell materials are typically softer and more comfortable than traditional hard-shell fabrics, allowing for better movement and a more enjoyable experience during outdoor activities.

Thinsulate is a brand of insulation made by 3M, known for its thin yet highly effective heat-trapping capabilities. It keeps you warm without adding excessive bulk, allowing for better movement and comfort. This makes Thinsulate a popular choice for gloves, jackets, and other cold-weather gear, ensuring you stay warm while maintaining your range of motion.

While DWR Coating significantly enhances water resistance by causing water to bead up and roll off, it is not completely waterproof. For light rain or wet conditions, DWR-treated gear will keep you dry. However, in heavy rain, it’s advisable to use additional waterproof layers or gear to ensure complete protection from the elements.
