Waterproof Gloves for Cold and Wet Weather

Waterproofing helps manage rain and snow, but it does not guarantee warmth. Compare the shell, insulation and intended activity before buying.

Waterproof gloves are designed to limit water reaching your hands, but construction and intended use differ. Compare the membrane or coating, seams, cuffs and care instructions rather than relying on the label alone.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

What is the difference between waterproof and water-resistant gloves?

Waterproof describes a stronger barrier to water under stated conditions; water-resistant gloves offer more limited protection. Check the maker's precise definition and care requirements.

Are waterproof gloves warm?

Not by themselves. Warmth depends on insulation, fit and conditions, so review those specifications separately.

Can waterproof gloves be machine washed?

Care depends on the fabric and membrane. Follow the manufacturer's washing instructions, as unsuitable detergents or heat may affect performance.

How do I keep waterproof gloves working?

Use the care and reproofing guidance supplied by the maker. Store them dry and avoid treatments that the product instructions do not recommend.
