History of the glove

The history of the glove goes back thousands of years, which is consistent with the fact that people of the time had the same, if not more dangerous, problems with cold and hand protection than we do. Writings mentioning the use of gloves for these reasons date back to ancient Rome.

It's worth noting, however, that the glove was first considered a fashion accessory in Europe around the 13th century. It was later popularized and democratized as an ornament by the British royal family in the 19th century.

Today, the glove is considered a useful accessory, providing protection from the cold while adding a touch of elegance to your outfit.

Types of glove

Gloves are used for a variety of reasons, both aesthetic and otherwise:

The main reason for wearing gloves these days is the weather factor. When temperatures drop, it makes sense to wear gloves to protect fingers from the cold. Gloves are made from materials that retain heat, such as wool or acrylic.

As well as for practical reasons, gloves can also be worn for aesthetic reasons. Women often wear gloves on ceremonial occasions or for a classy event. Gloves can be long or short, with details such as bows, rhinestones or pearls.

For certain activities, it's advisable to wear gloves. These activities can be professional, with physical jobs or sports where you use your hands a lot, and it's preferable to protect them.

On long journeys, wearing women's leather driving gloves or men's leather driving gloves can give the driver a better grip on the steering wheel or handlebars.

Mittens are a type of glove in which the fingertips are cut off, giving the advantage of the glove's warmth on the palm and greater freedom of movement than with conventional gloves.

Traclet offers a wide range of men's and women's gloves, whether for winter or any other reason!

Match your winter headgear, be it a bonnet, hat or cap, with your gloves!
