Sealskinz Acle WP Waterproof Soft Shell Glove

The Sealskinz Acle WP Waterproof Soft Shell Glove combines fully waterproof Aquasealz protection with a lightweight, dexterous fleece design. Made for everyday wear in the colder months, it protects hands from rain, snow and sleet while preserving freedom of movement.

A soft microfleece lining provides insulation, while a Sticky S Grip formation enhances grip and supports touchscreen use. Wear these thin, thermal gloves on their own or as liners beneath insulated gloves for added protection.

Waterproof & Breathable Construction

An Aquasealz membrane sits between the durable outer shell and soft inner lining, making the gloves fully waterproof and breathable. This construction provides weather protection while supporting comfort during use.

Stretch Fleece & Microfleece Comfort

The outer combines 95% polyester with 5% elastane in a stretch fleece construction. The lightweight, sleek design is intended to keep hands mobile, with a durable shell for everyday wear.

Inside, a 100% polyester microfleece lining is soft to the touch and insulating. The packable format also makes the gloves suitable for carrying between uses.

Grip & Touchscreen Compatibility

The Sticky S Grip formation provides reliable grip in wet conditions. Touchscreen compatibility adds practical convenience without changing the glove’s lightweight format.
