Glove Terminology


http://www.handandglove.com/browse.cfm/ladies-saddle-stitch-leather/4,260.html
Gauntlet: A very long cuff to protect the forearm.


This ladies leather glove is an excellent example of a "guantlet" style glove.  It is available in the shop today but it is so popular right now not to mention I only one or two sizes left in stock. 
It does come in terrific Brown too. They are "silk" lined so they are perfect for spring and fall and those areas of the country that don't get bitter cold.
Like Texas or Florida.
 
I have SO many people that come through from Texas and Florida and they swear it never gets "cold enough to wear gloves", however as these gloves, there are gloves that are for protection and style/fashion as much as they are for warmth. 
Not to mention a person wearing gloves instantly shows that they are disctinctive, a tad bit different, a unicorn perhaps.
 
Fourchette: The piece of leather sewn between the fingers on some kinds of gloves. Also known as the sidewall or gusset.
This glove shows the "fourchette" in red between the fingers.
This was a fun glove to have in stock and they too are almost gone.  I believe there are one or two sizes and/or colors left.  You can see them at the http://www.handandglove.com/ to see what we have left.
This glove was popular with the shoppers all winter.  They are cashmere lined and ultrasoft Italian leather. So stylish and warm you just may want to visit the special page on handandglove.com to see the terrific gloves on sale!  This IS one of the styles.!
