Has anybody washed these gloves yet? I imagine it is ok but just checking. I looked at them this morning and they are moldy. They've been sitting in the garage in all this humidity.

2nd from the bottom.
It doesn't specifically state gloves, but I find it hard to imagine there's a difference.

From the FAQ page posted above.

"Gerbing’s gloves (excluding glove liners and H7 gloves) are all constructed with a waterproof/breathable membrane to keep your hands dry. However, the leather is not waterproof and should be treated."

Sounds to me like you can clean them as any other leather product.
