Touchscreen gloves in deerskin - Brown

Certified and patented technology in Italy

An improved touchscreen coating vs. the 1st generation

Italy has a solid reputation in leather savoir-faire. On one of our last business trips to Naples, our glove maker presented us with a revolutionary product: high quality leather with full touchscreen properties. Thanks to a unique and innovative process, it is possible to make leather gloves which not only has touchscreen capacity on a small surface but on the entire palm and the inside of the fingers.

Based on your feedback, we have improved the touchscreen faculties of the 2nd generation gloves. For that, the deer leather has been treated with the technical coating before dyeing. This way, the treatment penetrates deeper into the leather and stays.

Certified and patented by the Italian Leather Research Institute Stazione Sperimentale per l'Industria delle Pelli e delle Materie Concianti (SSIP), the institute guarantees the quality of the leather, which does not scratch your devices. They meticulously control all the stages of the leather processing in compliance with specific design and quality standards.

From king of the forest to king of leather

Full grain leather

An animal hide becomes leather after the tanning stage. Basically, the perishable product, the hide, is transformed by a vegetable or mineral process into a non-perishable product, i.e. leather. The leather can then be split into three layers depending on its final use.

The bottom layer, on the flesh side, is called the split leather. Easier to maintain and less expensive, it is usually used for upholstery in furniture or low-end items. The outer part of the animal skin, where the hair is implanted, is called the top grain. It can be corrected or retain its natural and unique beauty, becoming the so-called full grain leather. Dense and resistant, it is also the softest leather and our choice for all our leather gloves.

A traditional, Neapolitan manufacture

10 stages of production in 2 hours per pair

Italy is a special country, and not just for its boot-like shape. Much more than in France, craftsmanship is still very present. This is what makes the label Made in Italy so famous, especially in fashion. The secret behind the preservation of Italian craftsmanship is certainly due to the regional specialisation and the generational transmission of traditional know-how.

Thus, it is in small family-run ateliers of northern Italy that wool is knitted and leather is worked in Naples, the south of the country. The maestri of our Neapolitan glove factory have been working with leather for several decades and 4 generations already. Everything is done by hand: from the choice of leather, to the stretching and cutting, to the adding of lining. The process includes about ten steps and no less than 2 hours of work to make a single pair of gloves!

Small details that make a big difference

The touchscreen gloves are no exception to the rule of our other leather gloves when it comes to attention to detail, whether it be visual or comfort-related:

- Three stitched ribs on the back of the hand

- Double elasticated cuffs with coloured piping

- Coloured cashmere lining in harmonious contrast with the leather shade
