designer-look leather gloves under £100: khaite and toteme alternatives
the short answer
khaite’s remo gloves cost $780 and toteme’s leather gloves £280, both made in italy. for the same idea under £100, choose good leather with one strong detail: paumier’s fringe and python-print gloves are £84 a pair, hestra’s wool-lined elisabeth is £95, and dents’ ginny comes in bright colours for £55.

what makes designer gloves look expensive isn’t a logo but soft leather, a clean shape and one deliberate detail, all of which you can find for much less.

- a colour that looks chosen: bordeaux, chocolate, cream or one bright shade.
