To wash Klim gloves, use a mild detergent and rinse them thoroughly twice, avoiding cleaning products with bleach. Do not dry leather components under high heat and condition the leather as needed to prevent damage.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
-
Avoid Bleach: Never use cleaning products containing bleach, such as Oxiclean, as they can damage the materials.
-
Use Mild Detergent: Wash the gloves with a mild detergent. This will clean the gloves without being too harsh on the materials.
-
Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the gloves twice to ensure all detergent is removed. Residue can cause irritation or material degradation.
-
Avoid High Heat Drying: If your gloves have leather components, avoid drying them under high heat. Air drying is preferable.
-
Condition Leather (If Applicable): For gloves with leather, condition the leather regularly to prevent it from becoming stiff, tearing, crumbling, or cracking. Use a leather conditioner specifically designed for the type of leather in your gloves. Follow the conditioner's instructions carefully.
