DENTS - DRIVING GLOVES

The history of Dents can be traced back to 1777, when John Dent established his accessory company manufacturing fine leather gloves in Worcester, England. 

The company continued to grow under the guidance of Dent's two sons, John and William, and by 1833 Dents was employing 133 craftsmen and craftswomen at its factories in Worcester and London, engaged in hand cutting and stitching, a unique skill still practiced today.

Hairsheep Leather

The sheep that provides the leather grows hair, not wool, hence its name. The fine hair leaves no markings resulting in smooth leather. Favoured for its natural strength and elasticity, hairsheep leather is generally acknowledged as the best leather for gloves. Durable and supple, this is an excellent choice for lasting comfort.

Measurements:

If you are not sure about your glove size, measure the hand you normally write with at its widest point in inches (excluding the thumb), then round down to the nearest half or whole number - this will be your glove size.

Gloves sizes come in half and whole numbers, between 7 and 11½ for men and 6 and 8½ for women.  For example, if your hand measures 8½ inches around its widest point (excluding the thumb), your glove size is 8½.

If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size.  Gloves should be snug at first but will stretch.
