August 2022: For over 25 years, British brand Sealskinz has been innovating and perfecting waterproof socks, gloves and hats for the modern-day consumer and everyday adventurer. In 2020, Sealskinz set the bar for endurance brands with its globally patented, revolutionary Fusion Control™ technology. Today, it launches the next generation of Fusion Control™ gloves, with Fusion Control™Insulated: a standout range of insulated gloves and mittens suitable for a range of outdoor activities, including cycling, running, hiking and skiing.
The new Fusion Control™ Insulated range represents a breakthrough in high-performance, biodegradable fibre technology, cementing the British brand’s position as market leader with innovation, heritage, and quality at its very core. Derived from the first-ever biodegradable synthetic fibres, the Primaloft Gold Bio® Insulation in the gloves is made from 100% post-consumer recycled material, with fibres softer than cashmere delivering uncompromised warmth for the winter months.
In the brand-new range of all weather, 100% water- and wind-proof gloves, Sealskinz brings together an impressive combination of advanced benefits offering complete protection and functionality. These include:
• Warmth and dryness. A proprietary, water-repellent finish, with a high Merino wool content (84%).
• Unmatched breathability. Next to skin hydrophilic membrane technology allows for maximum moisture transfer out of the glove.
• Unrivalled dexterity and control. Primaloft Gold Insulation with Grip Control delivers a non-slip grip
• Lightweight and packable. Acclaimed for its ultra-lightweight and insulative properties, the patented insulation has long been used by NASA scientists in aeronautical applications.
Fusion Control™ Technology
Fusion Control™ gloves offer precise control with zero risk of liner slippage or pull out. The unique three-layer bonding process sandwiches a 100% waterproof and breathable hydrophilic membrane securely between a Merino wool or Coolmax® inner and a softshell outer shell, allowing for a closer-to-skin fit that provides high dexterity, as well as a significant improvement in grip. Fusion Control™ technology also prevents hands from getting damp, cold or blistering with its impressive heat retention.
Primaloft Gold Bio® Insulation Technology
Derived from the first-ever biodegradable synthetic fibres, Primaloft Gold insulation BIO is made from 100% post-consumer recycled material. A low-bulk insulation designed to resist compression and provide freedom of movement, while staying warm even in the wettest conditions; this innovative technology makes Sealskinz’s new range the glove of choice for any adventurer who loves the fun, excitement and challenges of the great outdoors whatever the season.
