If you have specific types of leather you'd like to list, feel free to share!

        - Lambskin : Soft and smooth, but not as durable as other types of leather. Suitable for tasks that require delicacy.

        -  Cowhide : Strong and durable, suitable for heavy-duty use. Resistant to scratches and tears.

        -  Goatskin : Offers strength, durability, and good flexibility, making it a great choice for work gloves.

        - Full-grain Leather : The outer layer of leather is strong and durable, with an attractive surface, making it a high-quality option.

        - Top-grain Leather : The lower layer of leather is more porous than full-grain leather. It is less durable but also more affordable.

2.Construction and Stitching: Sustainable strength.                

      Inspect the stitching carefully. Neat and strong seams indicate the quality of the gloves. Look for gloves with double-stitched seams for added durability

3.Size and Fit:

      Comfortable to wear and offers good protection. Choose a size that fits your hand well—not too loose or too tight. Properly fitting gloves will effectively protect your hands.

4.Functionality:

        Choose leather gloves suitable for different activities, as they come in various designs. For example, motorcycle gloves may feature padding for impact protection, while work gloves for trades may have reinforced areas that come into contact with tools for added durability.

5.Maintenance of Leather Gloves: Extend the lifespan of your gloves. Proper maintenance of leather gloves helps prolong their usability and maintain their appearance. Here are some care tips:            
        1. Clean Properly :  Prevent dirt buildup by using a damp cloth to clean the gloves. Avoid harsh chemicals or strong cleaning agents. For stubborn stains, use a soft brush to gently scrub.

        2. Conditioning with Cream or Oil : Maintain softness and flexibility. After cleaning, regularly condition with leather cream or oil to keep the leather supple, flexible, and prevent it from drying out and cracking.
        3. Proper Storage : Prevent damage by storing leather gloves in a dry, well-ventilated area. Use a cloth bag or storage box to protect them from dust and moisture.

Choosing and properly maintaining leather gloves will ensure you have a strong, durable pair that lasts for many years. Select high-quality leather gloves, care for them regularly, and you will experience true value.
