You Wouldn't Wear Gloves
If You Didn't Have To.

Most gloves are clumsy, clammy, thickly insensitive.

Goatskin addresses the sensitivity problem, but not the numbing cold. Calfskin, widely available, is poor, in my opinion, at either task. And capeskin is nothing more than high-priced goatskin.

The practical answer, right under the noses of the colonists the day they arrived, is deerskin. It's not only supple and sensitive, but noticeably sensuous. Its inside nappiness is an excellent insulator; its resistance to repeated wetness is unequaled. Wet deerskin gloves don't turn into dry wooden boards.

I know they are available elsewhere. I'm offering them anyway. I can't resist the best.

Deer Suede Shearling Gloves (No. 2614). Ted Turner once said, "I don't want to own every ranch. I just want to own the ranch next door." Of course, all those acres have to be fenced in. You need some real gloves for that. Like these. Real deer suede outer shell is soft and supple. Comes in three different colors with individually matched shearling inner cuff and pile lining. Rugged, yet stylish. Perfect for a night at the theater – whether that's watching the stars outside Bozeman or on Broadway.

Men's sizes: S, M, L, XL. Imported.

Colors: Black/black shearling; brown/natural shearling; walnut/natural shearling.
