+Washing

  • All Ground Effect clothing enjoys a warm 40ºC machine wash. Try to avoid cold-water detergents and those with bleach, 'oxygen whitener' or fabric softener.
    • The cold-water varieties have little enzymes that are super-charged to brave the cold but can damage technical fabrics and cause skin irritation.
    • Bleach rots natural fibres like merino, strips the dye, attacks laminates of waterproof fabrics and can also cause skin irritation.
    • Sodium Percarbonate (the main ingredient in oxygen whitener) can make colours run.
    • Fabric softener and stuff containing it like wool wash destroys the water repellent finish on waterproof and water resistant fabrics, and can cause colours to run.
  • As a rule of thumb, a product that is easy on the planet is also easy on your body. Select a mild plant-based soap like Ecostore, Earthwise or Aware.
  • Hand washing is sometimes the only option on tour, but a washing machine rinses more thoroughly and is preferable if you have the choice.
  • Most Ground Effect gear dries super-fast so hanging on the line or drooping over the bedpost is generally the best option. High heat can damage some fabrics so if you do take your threads for a spin, set the device on 'medium' or 'warm' rather than hot. A lap in the dryer is recommended for your rain jacket, after it has dried on the line, as it helps recharge its water repellant finish.

  • Wash your gloves separately - the synthetic suede can cause havoc staining other clothing.
  • Air dry only - no dryers for these puppies.

      They Work.

      These gloves just work. I had some other more expensive gloves that bunched up under my palms all the time and its was irritating. They were made of cheaper materials. The most noticeable thing about high fives is that I don't notice them. When I'm riding I forget they are there and just get on with the riding. I like the orange bits too.

      Hi Fives a bit long in the finger

      Dang. The felt lovely and would've been perfect in every way for a good summer light glove apart from the fingers being just too long. I ordered the smallest they had and a long fingered bloke friend said they were too short in the finger for him (he does have quite long fingers...) so was hopeful. But not to be, and you can't have gloves that are too long, cause too many issues when gear changing and breaking in a hurry. The folks at GE were excellent though and refunded my money. If GE ever evolve into Women's sizing of gloves I'll be into them faster than you can DO a hi five!

      Second pair!

      They're just as comfortable as my first pair I purchased a couple of years ago. They actually look really cool now with the orange paneling on the side of the fingers. Also the reflective logo is a good touch.

      High Fives Out of Fives

      Comfortable fit, just enough padding and light as air. Great pair of gloves.

      High fives all round

      Had these for few weeks now and really like them. Feel really comfy on and I love the phone friendly fingers. Would totally recommend these for spring and summer rides.
