Leather Gloves

Guest2 · 13 Nov 2012 at 21:18

I would like some leather gloves for xmas. I have some ski gloves which are great - for skiing, but too big for general wear

Anyone have some recommendation on some good quality leather / other good material gloves?

Price range doesn't really matter unless its stupid money. i.e a shop in Russia sold Tardini aligator skin gloves for 750 euros...

www.tardini-accessories.it/english/prodotto_singolo.asp?id=127&ling=en&cat=1&pag=5

I did try them on and they looked and felt amazing, but then they should.

I get very cold hands for some reason and would like warm but not too bulky gloves which will last a long time

Some of the ones on here look good quality - http://www.dents.co.uk/categories/32/Gloves.asp

Leather gloves make it difficult to feel their skin against your hand which is a deal breaker for me.

I was going to suggest Dents. I have a pair, and they seem good quality and keep my hands and fingers warm.

I have these ones:

These are nice as well:

Agree, if you're really dead set against not leaving prints behind go for latex.

Had a look at some on the site and they dont look very good quality. Think ill stick with leather / other natural lining products.

I have these for skiing which are great but look a bit daft on nights out / to work!

Yeah. Well I think they're nice. I have no idea about "fashion".

Sealskinz are very durable. I had a pair for cycling and they were waterproof, and with grippy texture.

They look quite nice, as do the lambskin ones. Might have a look in Harvey Nichols tomorrow, maybe Churches have gloves as well as shoes...

Also have some for cycling - waterproof/breathable etc. Quality is fine, hasn't let me down yet

I have a pair of dents with the cashmere lining, they're nice but on very cold days I use a pair of lining gloves with them too as they're not overly warm.

God knows how you got that impression, I use sealskinz leather activity gloves for farm work, very durable.

+1 for Dents. I have a pair of driving gloves and they're brilliant. I also have a pair of Grandoe Porsche gloves made from sheepskin leather, which are really good.

I bought some for £15 from John Lewis a couple of years ago and they've been great.
