Written by the company
Incredible waterproof accessories. Welcome to Sealskinz. Our passion (some might say obsession actually) is to craft the finest waterproof accessories in the world. And while waterproof will always be our #1, we also want to keep you protected from snow, sand, mud, dirt and anything else that can get in the way of doing your thing in the outdoors. Because to so many, accessories are an afterthought. But to us at Sealskinz, they’re everything. And the best part? They work really, really well. We believe that no matter what’s going on around you, you can stay dry, protected, warm, and cosy by paying a little attention to what you put on your hands, feet, and head. Using innovative technology, premium materials, and a close attention to detail, we are confident that our socks, gloves, and hats will keep you dry, blister free, and comfortable. Any weather, any activity Sealskinz accessories have been to the top of Everest, braved the snowy winds of Antarctica, stayed dry on wilderness rafting trips in Alaska, and are trusted by the UK military. However, they’re equally incredible at keeping you comfortable while walking your furry friend, rushing on a brisk morning school run, or even watching an exhilarating children's football game (sarcasm intended). To say they’re up for any weather challenge is kind of an understatement.

Hi Jeniffer,

We are thrilled to hear the Christmas present exchange was seamless.
Many thanks again for the review,

After weeks of researching reviews
After weeks of researching reviews, materials, and the 2-year warranty, I decided to try Sealskinz based on the reputation and price. While I’m not necessarily questioning durability, my main issue is warmth.
I bought these expecting a premium sock suitable for around 0°C, but I still ended up with cold feet. For me, a standard merino wool sock has performed better for warmth and comfort, which makes the £35 price hard to justify.
I really wanted these to be a long-term “buy once, buy well” purchase, but I feel disappointed and frustrated with the performance. I wouldn’t recommend these to new buyers looking for warmth in cold conditions—especially when cheaper merino alternatives have worked better.

Sealskinz thank you!!
Sealskinz thank you for being an amazing company! I ordered some gloves for my dad at Christmas but they were too small, I contacted Sealskinz and the communication and helpfulness of your customer service was second to none! I was sent a return label and a new pair of bigger sized gloves were sent out when they had received the others. Thank you and continue the amazing service.

Don’t give them your email address for a discount.
Avoid this company. The entice you to give them your email address with discounts. When you apply those discounts to check out it tells you that the discount isn’t available on the product you’ve selected. Completely dishonest.
Update: A refreshingly honest response.

Ordered gloves from “Sealskinz USA” on…
Ordered gloves from “Sealskinz USA” on January 7, and they are shipping - very slowly - from UK. There was nothing to indicate shipping was from overseas or that it would take so long. They were in Los Angeles customs for over a day and seem like they are sitting around at each stop for days. I can’t opine about gloves because I still don’t have them!

I had a slight issue on the size of a pair glove which meant I had to return and get a larger size. Unfortunately the same version was now sold out but the support team took me through the process and got it all sorted and kept me up to date with the progress of the return.

Good customer service …
Gloves arrived quickly but while they fitted my hands the wrists were too tight to actually get them on. System for return or swapping was simple to use and I await the arrival of the new gloves of the next size up.

Excellent proactive customer service
Excellent customer service- within less than a minute of sending my email re. a product issue, I received a response, which was then followed up within a 10 minutes re. a solution. The whole experience was exceptional! The expeditious way in which my query was dealt with was impressive and has surpassed my experience with larger brand retailers. Well done Sealskinz, I definitely look forward to ordering from you again soon.

I had an issue with a pair of gloves and so contacted the company via their customer support desk.
