Custom Gloves — Split Leather with Pleating
We supply gloves to brands, retailers and uniform programmes, made in Split Leather with pleating for uniform and corporate programmes. On a piece like this the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is seam strength at the finger crotch, which is where gloves split — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered after the shipment lands. Programmes start at 300 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: a finish that tarnishes or rubs off after washing, or packing that arrives mixed and unusable on the line. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare UKCA and REACH documentation so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

Packing, testing and delivery
Pieces are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by style set — with barcodes applied where the channel needs them. Test reports for GRS recycled content claim are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Felixstowe with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and keep the approved reference on file so reorders reproduce the same material, the same construction and the same seam strength at the finger crotch.
