Canada Post + Holiday Shipping Update

Product & size
How do I know my glove size?
No two hands are alike and finger length relative to palm size is not constant for each person. To find your glove size, measure your hand with a tape measure around the palm area. You should use your dominant hand, the right if you are right-handed, and the left if you are left-handed.
For more information, please refer to our size chart.
What is the difference between a women's model and an adult model?
Models for women tend to have a slimmer fit than adult models. A woman can fit in an adult glove by sizing down. Example: If you wear a women’s medium, take an adult small.
What is your warmest glove/mitt?
This is a question that we receive fairly often, as we would all like to have a glove that will keep our hands warm during the winter season. Unfortunately, we can not provide an exact answer due to a number of factors such as: your resistance to the cold and the type of activity you are partaking in. Therefore, we recommend referring to warmth scale found within the product description of our winter gloves.
From a scale of 1 to 5, 5 being the warmest and 1 being the least warm.
- Level 1 : For when temperatures start to dip and your hands need a little warmth. This warmth level is for models that are lightweight, versatile and can be used to add an extra layer inside the gloves or to be worn as is at the start of the season.
- Level 2 : This warmth level is for when winter has started or nearing its end but the weather is still cold enough to head to the slopes. It will keep your hands dry and warm in these conditions.
- Level 3 : When the days get chillier and the wind is stronger, this warmth level is best if your hands are not used to dealing with the cold. Ideal for any winter activity, from skiing to touring.
- Level 4 : Models with this warmth level are often made with PrimaLoft or 3M Thinsulate and are designed for when winter conditions are not favorable. Perfect choice to practice your favorite winter sports while keeping your hands nice and toasty
- Level 5 : Often made of down insulation, these models are very warm, sometimes even too warm for many. This is perfect for extremely cold days where intense winter sports activities are practiced at a minimum as the hands can heavily perspire.
I lost my right/left glove, can I buy a single glove?
Unfortunately, our inventories do not allow us to sell gloves in broken pairs.
What is the difference between waterproof and water-resistant?
A water-resistant glove will keep your hands dry for a certain amount of time and will protect against a certain quantity of water. It is not fully impenetrable, whereas a waterproof glove will keep your hands dry in extremely wet conditions and is technically impenetrable.
How do I wash my gloves?
If you want to wash your gloves, it is very important to be very delicate and not to wash them too frequently. Well-maintained gloves will last for years. Here are some instructions for washing your gloves:
1. Be sure to use a damp cloth and gentle soap. For leather, saddle soap is a good option, as it cleans the leather while protecting it.
2. Wipe the outside of the glove clean, rinse the damp cloth and wipe again to remove any soap residue.
3. You can then lay the gloves flat to air dry or hang them up by your fingers. It is not recommended to dry the gloves in the dryer or directly over a heat source, as this may damage the glove material.
4. For extra protection, you can apply wax to the gloves. We recommend the application of NIKWAX wax at the start of each season for the protection and longevity of the leather.
Heated liners
We're all about making sure your heated liner experience is seamless and cozy. If you've still got questions that aren't answered in this FAQ, just drop us a line!
Can you take heated gloves on a plane?
Certainly! Indeed, our heated glove batteries are TSA-compliant. Since all Ewool batteries are lithium-based, they should be securely stored in your carry-on luggage for safety reasons.
Do our heated glove liners have waterproof features?
Our heated gloves have been crafted with waterproof panels (IP67) to shield the technology from environmental conditions. To stay completely dry in the rain, it's best to wear them as a layer underneath another glove. When you do that, you won't have to worry about water getting inside.
What are the benefits of using heated gloves?
One of the advantages of our heated glove liners is the ability to control the temperature. Our heated gloves provide three levels of heat, allowing you to customize them based on the weather. Having warm hands enhances circulation, dexterity, and lets you spend more time outside comfortably. Whether you're working in challenging outdoor conditions or simply enjoying activities like hiking or fishing, heated gloves enable you to embrace the cold with ease.
How can I store my heated gloves?
When storing heated clothing for an extended period, it's important to disconnect the batteries. Before storing, ensure the batteries are fully charged. It's also a good idea to recharge them every three months to maintain their charge. By adhering to these instructions, you can keep your batteries in optimal condition and ready for use whenever necessary.
How can I wash my heated gloves?
To start, make sure you take out the batteries. Wash separately in cold water using a gentle detergent if machine washing. Then, either let it air dry by hanging or use a low-heat setting if using a tumble dryer.
How do I adjust the heating on the liners?
Our haptic system simplifies the process of identifying your selected heat setting with a single button press. It's easy to understand: three vibrations correspond to Level 3, two vibrations indicate Level 2, and one vibration signifies Level 1. This immediate feedback, combined with light indicators, ensures that you can effortlessly determine and feel your current heat level.
How much time does it need for the battery to charge completely?
You can recharge your battery in less than 2.5 hours, ensuring minimal downtime between uses. Plus, thanks to the SnapConnect feature, you can charge your gloves without the need to take out the batteries.
How long do the batteries typically last before they need to be replaced?
You can charge the 22W Flat Battery up to 300 times. Once you reach that limit, you have the option to buy a new battery to keep using your line
Is my Ewool battery compatible with other brands?
Ewool batteries are specially designed to be compatible with other Ewool products. If you own heating clothing from another brand, check with their seller to see if other batteries can be used with their clothing.
