Caring for your gloves

Our gloves are designed to be hard-wearing. Here are some tips for keeping them in the best possible condition though...

Laundering

To keep your gloves looking and feeling great, be sure to adhere to our laundering guidelines.

Pilling

As knitted garments get older, "pilling" can start to develop - that is, fuzzy little balls can start to appear on them. (You'll no doubt have seen this type of thing on old sweatshirts before). As such, you may notice some degree of pilling as your Etre Touchy gloves age. If so, fear not - it's easy to remove. All you need is a "defuzzer" - which you can obtain (from as little as £2 GBP, $3 USD or €2 EUR) from most hardware/haberdashery stores and supermarket chains.

Pulling

To protect your gloves' thumbs and fingertips, don't tug on them when taking your gloves off - remove each glove from the cuff instead (in the same way as you remove your socks). In other words, fold the cuff back to reveal the glove's coloured lining and then pull down gently on it, so that the glove turns inside-out as it peels off.
