Waterproof Riding Gloves Black Extra Large Winter Equestrian Gloves

Woof Wear Waterproof Riding Glove – Black, Extra Large

This is a riding glove, not a yard glove, and the distinction is built into it. The palm is Woof Wear's Reintex, which is thin enough to keep rein feel, and behind it sits a Hipora waterproof and breathable membrane with a thermal tricot lining. The result is a glove you can ride in through driving rain without losing contact through the reins.

The other detail worth knowing is the cuff: it is extra long and gusseted, so it goes over a coat sleeve and stops water tracking down the wrist, which is how most riders actually get wet hands. Extra Large is the top size Woof Wear list in this glove.

Performance & Benefits

• Reintex palm for grip and rein feel, rather than a thick coated work palm.
• Hipora membrane: genuinely waterproof and breathable, not merely water repellent.
• Thermal tricot lining for warmth on cold, wet hacks.
• Extra-long gusseted cuff seals over a jacket sleeve.
• Machine washable at 30°C, unusual for a membrane glove.

Suitable For

• Winter hacking and schooling in rain, sleet and cold wind.
• Riders who need rein feel and dry hands at the same time.
• Larger hands — Extra Large is the biggest of the five sizes.
• Long days at hunting, endurance or outdoor competitions.
• Overkill for mucking out, where the membrane just gets punctured — the Woof Wear Winter Yard Glove is the cheaper glove for that job.

How to Use

• Fit them closely; a loose waterproof glove twists on the rein.
• Wear the cuff over the sleeve, not under it, so water runs off.
• Close all straps before washing. Machine wash at a maximum of 30°C on a gentle spin with non-biological detergent.
• Reshape by hand and dry flat at room temperature.

Care & Caution

• Do not tumble dry. Heat delaminates the Hipora membrane and the glove stops being waterproof.

• Use non-biological detergent only; enzymes and fabric conditioner clog the membrane.
• Never dry them on a radiator, in an airing cupboard or under a heat lamp.
