Hestra Elk Handsewn Cashmere – Cork

Read more

Elk leather goes back a long way in Scandinavia and its properties are ideally suited to gloves. It is thick and warm, as well as being unusually supple and flexible. The feel is naturally robust, with a beautiful grain. Not to mention the fact that it has also protected the “king of the forest” through the Nordic winter.
This classic men’s glove is handsewn in carefully selected elk leather and is lined with cashmere for soft, luxurious warmth. Points on the backhand and an elasticated inside wrist enhance the fit. A high-quality glove made for chilly autumn and winter weather.
Each pair of gloves is cut by hand from a single hide by skilled glove cutters in Hestra’s workshop in Hungary. The craft follows principles developed in seventeenth-century France that have remained largely unchanged to this day. The result is gloves that are unsurpassed in terms of style, suppleness and fit.
