paumier

paumier (say poh-mee-ay) comes from jeu de paume, the game of the palm. before there was tennis, players in france hit the ball with a bare hand, and by the end of the thirteenth century with a leather glove to protect the palm; the first racket is recorded in 1505.

the people who kept the courts and made the rackets were called paumiers, and we borrowed their name for our gloves.

we make gloves by hand in the uk, in nappa leather, suede and calf hair, for the darkest part of the year: one bright thing against black coats and grey streets. every style comes in size 7, in small runs of each colour.

every order ships tracked from the uk (in-stock pairs the next business day, late-shipping styles 14 days after you order), delivery is free to the uk and eu (£15 to the rest of the world), and you can return your order within 14 days of delivery.

printed and patterned leather gloves

printed leather gloves for women, made by hand in the uk in spotted calf hair, checked or python-print suede and striped nappa: statement gloves that change a plain coat on their own, all in size 7.

questions

do you make leopard print gloves?
not at the moment. our animal print gloves are python print, on suede in plum or brown, and our spotted gloves are cream calf hair with round black spots rather than leopard rosettes.
do you make two-tone leather gloves?
yes: the striped gloves are cream nappa with three glossy black stripes, and the checkerboard gloves are black suede checked in cream.
what do you wear with printed gloves?
a plain coat and one other note of the glove’s colours nearby, such as a black bag with black and cream gloves, so the pattern does the work.
