Size

Not sure what size of gloves you need? Please watch our video measuring guide and refer to the size chart below. This will help you capture the most accurate measurements. Our gloves are made to measure, so we want to ensure a perfect fit.

We make our gloves in hand sizes from 6 to 8½. To find your glove size, pass a tape measure around the widest part of your hand - usually over your knuckles, excluding the thumb. The result, in inches, is your glove size. If you are between two sizes, round down to the lower.

Here is how you convert from centimetres to inches:

Glove size	Inches	Centimetres
6	6	15.2
6½	6½	16.5
7	7	17.8
7½	7½	19
8	8	20.3
8½	8½	21.6

How do I guess someone's glove size?

If you are buying gloves for someone and don't know their glove size (and don't want to ruin the surprise), their height can indicate their most likely glove size. Please note, this is statistically most likely but won't be correct 100% of the time.

Applies to women only

Description

Emilie is a classic leather glove done right. Simplicity and charm in wrist length nappa leather. The 3 points and a side vent adds elegance to your everyday wardrobe and the glove is lined in pure silk for easy wearing. A classic winner.

Material: Cabretta Leather & Silk Lining

Ethiopian Cabretta leather, derived from the highland hair sheep of Ethiopia’s pristine plateaus, is revered as the world’s finest glovemaking material. Its unparalleled softness, achieved through the hide’s fine grain and natural suppleness, drapes the hand like a second skin, while its remarkable durability ensures timeless elegance. Expertly tanned using age-old techniques, this leather offers a flawless balance of breathability and grip, making it the choice of connoisseurs for gloves that embody sophistication and precision.

Care Guide

The more you wear them, the better they look. That’s why leather gloves aren’t just accessories — they’re something personal. They soften with your every movement, remember your shape, and gain character over time. They don’t ask for much, just that you handle them with care, not control.

A mark or a bit of weather isn’t a tragedy — it’s part of the story. But when they need your help, leather gloves respond best to time and restraint. No rubbing, no shortcuts, and certainly no heat.

Let It Breathe

Forget conditioners and quick fixes. To lift a mark, dust on a touch of talcum powder, smooth it with a dry cloth, and leave it be for a couple of days. If your gloves get wet, blot gently, reshape them softly, and let them dry at their own pace — away from the radiator, the sun, or any artificial heat.

Care Method

Apply talcum powder over marks with a dry cloth. Leave for 48 hours, then dust off gently. If wet, blot carefully, reshape, and air dry naturally. Never fold or store while damp.

For Deeper Care

If your gloves become stiff, lose their shape or develop persistent stains, a leather care specialist can restore their structure and surface without compromising their character.
