FAQs

What makes sheepskin suitable for gloves?

Sheepskin is naturally insulating, breathable, and soft, providing warmth without overheating and a comfortable feel against the skin.

How should I clean my sheepskin gloves?

Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth or a specialized sheepskin cleaner, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

Will these gloves keep my hands warm in very cold weather?

These gloves offer good insulation for moderate cold. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, thicker, specialized winter gloves might be more appropriate.

Can I wear these gloves for driving?

Yes, the supple nature of sheepskin provides a good grip and dexterity, making them suitable for driving.

How long will these gloves last?

With proper care, hand-sewn sheepskin gloves can last for many years, maintaining their quality and appearance.

Are these gloves waterproof?

No, sheepskin is water-resistant to a degree but not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the leather.

What does '3 Point Stitch' refer to?

The 3-point stitch refers to decorative stitching typically seen on the back of the hand, often in groups of three, adding a classic and refined aesthetic detail.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff after drying

Gently massage the leather with your hands or apply a small amount of sheepskin leather conditioner to restore flexibility.

Minor scuffs or marks on the surface

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently buff out the mark. For more persistent marks, try a specialized leather cleaner for sheepskin, testing in a hidden spot first.

Gloves feel too tight

Sheepskin can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially. If still too tight after several wears, consult the retailer regarding sizing options.

Discoloration from water exposure

Allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Once dry, if discoloration persists, professional leather cleaning might be necessary.
