Gloves for forest firefighting are exceptional for their high breathability, tactility and protective properties.

Description

UPPER MATERIALS:

  • Back: EffiSHELL, a 3-layer laminate with reduced flammability developed by Holík, ensures high breathability and water resistance. The quick-drying knit fabric is supple and flexible. The inner membrane prevents the penetration of carcinogenic substances and other unwanted particles into the inner space of the glove. The layer in contact with the skin is modified to bring maximum comfort, does not irritate the skin and ensures easy putting on and taking off the gloves, even when wet.
  • Palm:  washable, water-repellent, thermostable goatskin with minimal shrinkage.

REINFORCEMENTS:

  • Back: Goatskin in the knuckle area.
  • Fingertips: Goatskin

LINING:

Care & Maintence

Choose a more ecological short washing program at 40 °C.

 

Care and storage:

Remove excess dirt after every use. Before washing fasten the velcro and remove the carabiners. Use liquid detergent. Wash gloves at the short program.

 

To make the glove fit better:

After washing and during drying shape the glove several times. Do not dry in direct sunlight, or on heat sources, do not use the dryer. Store the gloves in dry conditions.

 

RECOMMENDED USE:

Washing Gel

Washing gel is natural based for leather and textile gloves with high washing efficiency. It reduces bacteria, does not pollute the environment and is fully biodegradable.

 

Holík impregnation

Highly effective impregnating spray for leather and textiles. The fluorocarbon based impregnation adds water repellency, oil repellency and anti-chafing to the face of the glove while leaving the product breathable. The impregnation is applied to the dry product in a thin layer and allowed to dry for a minimum of 12 hours.
