gifts for your best friend: one pair for her, one for you
the short answer
buy two pairs of the same style in two colours, one for her and one for you. the 005 plum python-print gloves and 006 brown python-print gloves are the same glove in plum and brown suede, £84 each, size 7.
why give in pairs?
because a best friend's gift is half about the friendship. two pairs in two colours are a shared thing without being matching outfits. you will each notice the other's when you meet.
how do the two python-print pairs differ?
the cut is the same: suede, the python printed across the back of the hand, a slim leather binding at the wrist. the python is printed onto suede, not real.
- 005, plum: for the one who wears grey, navy and black, and likes one colour against it.
- 006, brown: for the one who wears camel, cream and denim. from a few feet away it reads as plain brown.

how do you decide who gets which?
give her the choice. order both, hand them over together, and let her pick. it is a small thing that makes the gift feel shared.
what if only one pair is in the budget?
give her the 008 knotted fringe gloves: black nappa, a fringe in black, tan and cream, knotted at the wrist. handmade nappa leather gloves.
