When winter hits, window cleaners don’t get the luxury of waiting for warmer days. Cold,
wet conditions demand gear that keeps you working comfortably without sacrificing
control. That’s exactly why one glove continues to stand above the rest
at Detroit Sponge.

Year after year, the Showa Blue Winter Gloves have earned their place as our top-
selling winter glove-and for good reason. Professional window cleaners consistently
tell us these gloves hit that sweet spot between warmth, dexterity, and durability.
Unlike bulky winter gloves that kill feel and control, the Showa Blues are engineered for
real work in real winter conditions.

Why Pros Keep Reordering Showa Blues


Ideal Warmth Without the Bulk

These gloves are lined with a warm acrylic interior that keeps hands protected from frigid temperatures-without turning your fingers into clubs. You stay warm and precise.

Smart, Breathable Design

The double-coated polyurethane exterior is paired with a breathable liner between the coating and the insulation, helping reduce sweat buildup. Cold hands are bad-but sweaty hands in winter gloves are worse. This design keeps moisture under control, so your hands stay comfortable longer.

Grip You Can Trust

The rough-finish coating provides excellent grip on wet glass, squeegee handles, poles, and tools-exactly what winter work demands.

Seamless, Flexible & Durable

With a seamless construction, these gloves move naturally with your hands while holding up to daily abuse. Flexible enough for detail work, tough enough for those long winter days.

Ergonomically Designed

Showa designed these gloves to reduce hand fatigue, making them easier to wear for extended periods. Less strain means better productivity and fewer sore hands at the end of the day.

A Window Cleaner’s Winter Essential

It’s no surprise the Showa Blue Winter Gloves have become a window cleaner
favorite. They’re not just warm-they’re workable. When temperatures drop, these
gloves help keep jobs moving efficiently without compromising safety or performance.
