Glove Leathers & Linings - Peccary Gloves, Lamb Nappa, Hairsheep & Deerskin Leather

About this video

The Gazette team explores the various leather types and linings used in men’s gloves, discussing their properties, durability, and appropriate use cases. They guide viewers through options ranging from common leathers like deerskin to premium choices like peccary, and explain how different linings—from alpaca to silk—affect warmth, comfort, and elegance.

Key takeaways

• The Gazette team argues that peccary leather is the superior choice for dress gloves due to its exceptional softness, durability, and beautiful patina development, and recommends that every gentleman should own a pair
• The Gazette team recommends natural fiber linings like alpaca, cashmere, or wool over synthetic alternatives, with alpaca being their top choice for its superior warmth and softness
• The Gazette team cautions against lower-quality leathers like goat skin and warns that carpincho leather is often falsely labeled as peccary, offering inferior quality at lower cost
