Never, not all the brands, only a few brands supply waterproof leather gloves. This type of gloves keeps the hand dry and comfortable. They secure the hands during freezing weather. It is used to have a good grip on to the items what we hold on be it sports tools or general heavy tools.

What is it?

They are nothing but the “another skin form” also cover the hands and fingers are covered by sheath are made of animal skin after removing its hairs. The holes provide a good frictional force and grip is acquired; has a natural resistance to objects.

Mainly used for sports like handball, cycling, football, driving, ski polling. Welders too use it to reduce the heat effect on their hands.

They add warmth to the hands during winter climates. A leather glove gives more protection to the hands while working. They last for a long time without tearing if a branded product is bought.

Waterproof technique of leather gloves:

The glove is cleaned well by dusting it. Then a brand of waterproofing wax is used. A small lemon size gel is squeezed. Spread the gel evenly on to the glove leaving not even a pinpoint sized area. Allowing it to settle for a few minutes, remove the excess that is standing out with a waste cloth. Then time is given for the gel too completely set and dry

We can find a change of colour to a darker tint as it dries; mostly it is very obviously noted on the light coloured gloves. For test try, we can check on a small part of white gloves.

The shape is compromised, if dried by using radiator or hair dried it will crack if dried so. The dried must be on the natural way and slow, the gel is available in different brands but only few products give a quality output. After all these to keep it soft leather creams are available in locals.

Cleaning a waterproof leather glove:

Only if necessary rather avoiding is the best option. If required, then wipe it with soap solution and allow it to dry naturally. Never to use a sponge as pieces of it may be seen after drying. That makes the entire process to be a flop show. If, well maintained then stay good in soft texture. If soaked in water or put in washing machine, then it will become hard in a very short time.

They are of different sizes for a woman that is from 6.5 to 8. Getting a leather gloves and maintaining it is fun.
