About the Manufactory
Our Glove Factory belongs to one of the most revered glove master families in the world. Located in Napoli, Italy, they have been crafting gloves of superb quality for many of the top luxury brands since 1860. They have successfully adapted to the times by combining traditional craftsmanship and skills handed-down from generation to generation with modern technology. Every single production step from the inspection of the leathers, over the cutting and sewing of the leather, to the ironing is done 100% in house.
How we found the manufactory
The crafting of handmade gloves is an extremely difficult and intricate process. We knew that, if we wanted to create premium quality gloves, we would have to look where fashion is a form of life: Italy. Our research finally led us to Naples which is known for its traditional glove making artisans. So, we travelled to beautiful Naples, met with several glove makers, and finally found our Glove Factory. We feel very fortunate for the opportunity to be working with such an esteemed Family.
Sustainability
The most sustainable products are the ones that last for many years to come; maybe even for generations. Our gloves are designed to achieve that very level of exceptional longevity. Bringing together traditional glove-making techniques and premium materials, the gloves turn into true gems of Italian handicraft which not only fit like a second skin right from the first wear but only get more beautiful with age. Our elegant deerskin is the by-product of population control hunting in North America and our luxurious Peccary leather is the by-product of subsistence hunting in Peru.
Where the materials come from
For our gloves we use premium quality Peccary, Carpincho and Deer leathers which are all tanned in Europe. The cashmere lining is crafted in Italy. Our Glove Manufactory asked us not to disclose the name of the Tanneries and Cashmere Factory which is why we are not revealing them at this point.
