With a variety of leathers, linings, and functionalities, you can choose the pair that best suits your needs. Below, you'll find an overview of the linings used in our collection.
Cashmere & Wool
Our Cashmere & Wool lining combines 85% premium wool and 15% cashmere, bringing together two of nature's finest fibers. Each material has its own unique qualities, creating the perfect balance between warmth, softness, breathability, and durability. The wool provides excellent insulation and moisture regulation, while the cashmere adds an exceptionally soft, luxurious feel against the skin. Together, they create a lining that offers outstanding comfort throughout the winter months.
Wool is a natural insulator that traps warm air while remaining breathable, helping to keep your hands comfortably warm without overheating. It can absorb a significant amount of moisture without feeling damp, ensuring your hands stay dry even during extended wear. In addition, wool is naturally resilient, durable, and odor-resistant, making it an ideal material for glove linings that are designed to last for many seasons.
The addition of 15% cashmere elevates this blend to another level. Cashmere is renowned for its incredibly fine fibers, which provide exceptional softness while remaining lightweight and highly insulating. The result is a lining that feels luxuriously smooth against the skin without sacrificing warmth or performance.

Lambswool
Lambswool is one of the softest and finest natural wool fibers available, making it an exceptional lining for premium gloves.

One of lambswool's greatest advantages is its natural ability to regulate temperature. It keeps your hands comfortably warm in winter while remaining breathable enough to prevent overheating. The fibers also absorb moisture efficiently, helping your hands stay dry and comfortable throughout the day.
