FAQs

What is the material of the lining?

The lining is a warm and breathable blend of 50% cashmere and 50% wool.

How should I clean my leather gloves?

We recommend professional leather cleaning. Avoid washing or immersing the gloves in water. For minor surface dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used carefully, followed by air drying.

Can I use these gloves in very cold weather?

The cashmere and wool lining provides significant warmth, making them suitable for cool to cold weather. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, additional insulated gloves might be necessary.

What does 'inseam stitching' mean for the palm?

Inseam stitching means the seams are enclosed within the glove, creating a very smooth surface on the palm side for maximum comfort and a clean aesthetic.

Is the zipped vent functional?

Yes, the antique brass zipped vent on the palm is functional and allows for adjustable ventilation to suit your comfort level.

What is the main benefit of the calf leather?

Calf leather is chosen for its super-fine texture, softness, and durability, providing a luxurious feel and a refined appearance.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing guide, typically measuring the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand. A proper fit ensures both comfort and effectiveness.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff or dry

Apply a small amount of a suitable leather conditioner using a soft cloth and allow it to absorb. Avoid over-conditioning.

Zipped vent is difficult to open or close

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small application of zipper lubricant (specifically for metal zippers) may help, but use sparingly to avoid staining the leather.

Color transfer onto lighter clothing

This is a potential risk with darker leather dyes. Ensure the gloves are well-conditioned and avoid prolonged contact with light-colored, damp fabrics. A protective spray for leather may offer some prevention.

Pilling or loosening of the lining

While the cashmere/wool blend is durable, some minor pilling is natural over time. Gently remove any significant pills by hand. For more significant issues, professional repair may be needed.

Cons

  • Leather requires specific care to maintain its condition.
  • May be too warm for very mild weather due to the lining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves require no setup; they are ready to wear immediately. Ensure you select the correct size for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these gloves are intended as handwear for general use in cool to cold weather.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For best results, professional leather cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
  • Conditioning: Periodically use a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather soft and prevent cracking. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth.
  • Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding them tightly, which can cause creasing. If the gloves become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
