Leather Glove Sizing Guide
Our gloves are made using traditional glove sizing. To work out your glove size, simply measure around the widest part of your hand, as shown in the image, and take the next half-inch measurement. This should give you your glove, and your fit should be perfect.
If you can't measure the person's hand and you want a rough guide, then we would advise as follows:
Mens: XS (8) S (8.5) M(9) L(9.5) XL(10) XXL(10.5)
Ladies: XS(6.5) S(7) M(7.5) L(8) XL (8.5)
Understanding Finish Options
Our gloves often offer you a choice of finishes for points, cuffs and linings. Here we explain those options so that you can choose the perfect glove for you.

How do I care for my leather gloves?
Here are some tips to keep your leather gloves looking and feeling their best:
1. Proper Handling:
Putting on: Alternate pulling on the palm and back of the hand to avoid stretching the leather.
Taking off: Pull each finger individually to loosen the glove before pulling all four fingers simultaneously.
2. Maintain Elasticity:
Periodic stretching: Hold the cuff and fingers, then gently stretch the glove downwards. Repeat for each finger.
3. Drying:
Air dry only: If your gloves get wet, let them air dry flat on a towel.
Avoid heat sources: Do not use a hair dryer or radiator to dry them.
4. Storage:
Cool and dark: Store your gloves in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area.
Rotate usage: Alternate between multiple pairs to allow the leather to rest and recover.
5. Professional Care:
Periodic relining: Consider having your gloves professionally relined to maintain quality and warmth.

How do you wash leather gloves?
Hand wash only. Leather products should never be machine-washed. Use a damp cloth with a small amount of delicate detergent to remove stains. Gently scrub the stained area, being careful not to scrub too hard.
Avoid harsh chemicals, and do not use fabric softeners or bleach on leather, as these can damage the material. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning, and rinse the leather with clean water to remove all traces of detergent.
