With the vast selection and many options in lady leathers gloves choosing the right pair, especially if they’re a gift for someone else, can sometimes be challenging.
Here are some tips and suggestions to help make your ladies leather gloves shopping experience an easier and more successful one:
The Right Fit

The most important factor in purchasing ladies leather gloves is fit. So how do you know what size glove you are?
Begin by measuring your hand.
Hold your hand up or lay it flat on the table and measure the widest part of your hand – across the four lower (base) knuckles – excluding the thumb.
Anything less than 6 inches will be an extra small sized glove.
6.5 inches is ladies size small. 7 inches is medium. 7.5 inches is ladies size large and 8 inches is an extra large glove size.
Style
Once you know the correct size, it all comes down to style and length.
Ladies leather gloves are available in lengths from wrist to above the elbow.
They’re also lined in several different materials which may include cashmere, silk, fur (both real and faux) and wool.
Some ladies leather gloves are elastic at the wrist for a snugger fit to keep the cold air out and some are designed with venting both at the wrist and throughout the glove to allow air in.
Also, be sure to look for details like open fingers, buttons, buckles and stitching, as well as a multitude of colors to match all of your winter outfits.
Quality
While North America now manufactures quality ladies leather gloves, Italy is more recognized for its renowned fine leather products, including of course, ladies leather gloves.
To ensure shape retention after they’ve been worn, Italian ladies leather gloves are hand stretched to create elasticity. They also undergo a special process that enhances the leather’s natural color.
Cost
Authentic Italian ladies leather gloves usually average somewhere between $50 and $100.
There are of course many lower priced ladies leather gloves to choose from depending on the type of leather and the manufacturer.
The bottom line when purchasing ladies leather gloves is to first be sure the size is right and from there, its basically a matter of personal taste and desired function.
If your gloves are more of a fashion accessory rather than a source of cold weather protection, it isn’t necessary to choose wool, cashmere or fur linings.
Shop around and check out the many styles and options available until you’re able to narrow the selection down to your desired look and feel.
