How to Use
- Measure around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb, and compare with the size chart.
- Choose the smaller size if you are between sizes and want maximum rein feel; choose the larger size for general yard warmth.
- Work your fingers fully into the glove so the fingertips sit flush, which keeps the touchscreen function working correctly.
- Check the palm grip against your reins or lead rope before riding out.
- After use, rinse off mud with cool water and dry naturally away from direct heat.

FAQ
Are the Mackey Arctic Pro Gloves fully waterproof?
The gloves use a waterproof and breathable outer designed to keep hands dry in wet, cold conditions while allowing perspiration to escape.
Can I use my phone while wearing them?
Yes. The fingertips are touchscreen compatible, so you can use a phone or tablet without removing the gloves.
Are they warm enough for winter riding?
They combine Polartec with Thinsulate by 3M insulation, which provides lightweight warmth while keeping the flexibility needed for riding and yard work.
What size should I order?
Measure around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb, and compare with the size chart. The fit should be snug but not tight - gloves that are too small restrict circulation and feel colder, while oversized gloves reduce rein feel.
Will I still feel the reins?
Yes. The insulation is designed to be lightweight rather than bulky, and the TactiGrip palm gives secure contact with reins, ropes and yard tools.
How should I care for them?
Rinse off mud with cool water and dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid radiators, tumble dryers and direct heat, which can damage the insulation and waterproof outer.
