Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

How to clean goose down ski gloves
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

So sadly my ski holiday has ended and I am back at my desk once again [big sigh]. Have decided that I need to clean my gordini goose down ski gloves as they are getting smellier and smellier year on year, can anyone tell me the best way of doing this? Label says to wipe clean outside only, so not sure what to do. Cheers.

If you follow the instruction as per down pillows and dry them in a tumble dryer with a few tennis balls which helps to break up any clumps..it depends what the outer layer is made of

@bendiddley, I’ve washed my Gordoni down mittens a couple of times (they got so smelly it was either risk washing them or throw them away) using Nikwax Down Wash and then Nikwax Down Proof. It seems to have worked. I think the down feels a little less fluffy but, with silk liners, they withstood wind and seriously low temperatures on the Kleine Matterhorn last week. I don’t wear them for “normal” skiing temperatures - too hot and I do feel the cold so they must have survived the washing.

I wash my rab and alpkit down jackets in the normal washing machine with about a quarter of the normal detergent, and they seem to cope very well.
