RYNOX Urban Riding Gloves

Step 1 – Prep

• Undo all buttons, Velcro, and buckles
• Shake off any surface dirt
• Wipe clean with a damp microfiber cloth
• Dissolve 1 cap of detergent in a bucket of water, per pair of gloves
• Soak for at least 30 minutes
• Avoid hot water. Test with your fingers first. If it’s too hot for your fingers, it’s too hot for your gear.

Step 2 – Which Detergent?

• Use (in order of preference)
  • Purpose-made tech-wash
  • Neutral unscented liquid detergent
  • Woolen liquid detergent
  • Baby shampoo
• Completely Avoid
  • Any type of granular powder detergent
  • Any type of heavily scented liquid detergent

Step 3 – Wash and Rinse

• Wear the gloves and dip your hands in the bucket
• As if you’re washing your hands, scrub the gloves together
• Focus on spots with grease and grime
• Repeat until clean
• Rinse multiple times until free of detergent
• Avoid using hard, abrasive brushes. Use a soft brush if required.

Step 4 – Flat Dry

• Lay the gloves flat over a towel, in a well-ventilated area.
• For leather gloves, during the drying process, put the gloves on at regular intervals, and flex your fingers and wrists.
• This is important for leather gloves to retain the shape and fit of your hands.
• Do not hang dry. Do not expose to direct sunlight while drying.

Step 5 – Condition

• Once completely dry, gently rub the leather conditioner over leather panels.
• Lay flat over a towel to allow the leather to absorb the conditioner.
• Repeat as required. Wipe off any excess conditioner with a microfiber cloth.
• Skip this step for textile or mesh gloves/panels.

Step 6 – Storage

• Store in a cool dry ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.
• Do not store while damp or wet. Dry completely before storage.
• Clean thoroughly before long-term storage.
