Break in your new Schmitz Mittz

Schmitz Mittz Safety Gloves provide superior hand protection, comfort & dexterity that increases with wear.  Your gloves will feel firm initially but will quickly soften and mold to your hand with use, becoming exceptionally comfortable over time.  The issue of time might pose a problem for other gloves but Schmitz Mittz, made to last, will be on the job protecting your hands long after other gloves have given up.

Washing Schmitz Mittz

When necessary your gloves can be washed in warm water by hand or on the delicate cycle of a front load machine only.  Do Not use a standard rotational washing machine - it may damage the inner liners as it twists and beats the gloves.  A front load machine offers a gentle tumbling on the delicate cycle.

Note: Some qualities such as waterproof may be affected by machine washing, we recommend that you wash your gloves by hand. 

 

Drying Schmitz Mittz

Lay out or hang to dry.  You may use a dryer rack inside the dryer selecting low temperature, delicate or air only dryer options.

Note: DO NOT TUMBLE DRY IN THE MACHINE. Do Not use High Heat.
