FAQs

1. Why do leather work gloves get stiff after use, and how can I soften them?

Leather work gloves become stiff due to exposure to moisture, dirt, and natural oils from your hands, which dry out the leather over time. To soften them, apply a leather conditioner or mink oil, gently working it into the material. Alternatively, wearing the gloves while slightly damp can help break them in naturally.

2. What is the best type of leather for work gloves, and how do they differ?

The best type of leather depends on the job. Cowhide is durable and abrasion-resistant, pigskin is flexible and withstands moisture well, deerskin is soft and offers great dexterity, and goatskin provides excellent grip and water resistance due to its natural lanolin content.

3. Are leather work gloves good for winter use, or should I look for insulated options?

While leather provides some warmth and wind resistance, unlined gloves are not ideal for extreme cold. For winter use, choose insulated leather gloves lined with materials like Thinsulate or fleece to retain warmth without sacrificing flexibility.

4. How do I clean leather work gloves without ruining them?

Avoid soaking leather gloves in water. Instead, wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap, then let them air dry. For deep cleaning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner to keep them supple and prevent cracking.

5. Why do some leather gloves cause allergic reactions or skin irritation?

Some leather gloves contain tanning chemicals, dyes, or adhesives that can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions. Opt for natural, vegetable-tanned leather gloves if you have sensitive skin, and wear cotton liners if needed.
