Prototyping Driving Gloves

- This video shows the processes involved in making Mark 1 of a driving glove design. These are imperfect versions with some details that will be changed or improved. They were made for a specific customer's hand size.
Driving gloves are usually unlined, light gloves with perforations on the top panel for air circulation. Good grip on the palm side is important. Generally driving gloves have a top vent - an opening at the top side of the glove held closed with a buttoned strap. It's normal to find larger holes located at the knuckles - as driving gloves are used predominantly with the hand made into a fist while at the wheel, these holes are meant to reduce strain.
Later on this year, we are hoping to release a range of glove making kits, including a kit for driving gloves. Please feel free to subscribe so that you can hear about it before everyone else.
Very nice video , I appreciate each and every moment you put through in making this video.Amazing colour and fitting, wondered if you could share the PDF pattern you used ,so that I could diy one for my own use as I am fed up of these store bought synthetic low quality gloves ❤❤❤
Una Belleza!!!
Great dear friend Nice work God bless you always Aamin
Very kind
hello, I want to make it according to my own hand size, how did you calculate the hand size?
Starting my glove business and this was helpful thank you!
Hi, I have an idea of my own. How did the business turn out?
Great video! Just had a question about the stitching. It seems to me like you stitch with 1 thread and needle and not the saddle stitch / 2 needles way. What's the reason for that? I've seen it in other gloves too.
You do not stitch gloves with a saddle stitch. You saddle stitch stiff vegetable tanned leather - you pre-punch the holes, use a blunt needle and hold it in a stitching clamp. You wouldn't do that with gloves - for one thing, you are using a sharp needle and could not saddle stitch as you would end up cutting the thread with the blade of the needle. What you saw was probably a lock stitch done by a sewing machine. Saddle stitching gloves would be unnecessarily time consuming.
Hello, please tell me what is the name of the machine on which you sew
And where can I buy it?
Hello I am trying to repair my deerskin dress gloves. May I ask what size glover needle and thread that you used? I am hoping to fix up some parts on my own but my tools are always off.
John James Glover's Needles, I use size 005. Most sewing machine threads work, as do the thicker Gutterman's. I use synthetic thread, personally, but purists would argue linen thread is better. In my experience, older gloves I have seen sewn with linen thread have aged to the point where the linen thread breaks apart easily. Synthetic thread doesn't age as quickly.
Hola!!Que cuero utilizas???
What was that gel you were rubbing on them? Will my gloves be okay if I just use scrap leather "untreated" and with just thread and needle?
The gel was just watered down glue. It's PVA mixed with water - until it's barely tacky. You want to attach the pieces with a very light bond, otherwise you stretch the leather when you separate the piece. Yes, untreated leather is fine. What's more important is thickness, and stretchiness
such satisfying and calming videos you have, congrats! i am finishing my masters in fashion design and i am trying and testing to make a pair of leather gloves, and i am having quite a hard time hand sewing the tip/top of the fourchettes to the tip of the fingers... do you have any tips on this, or perhaps a video? thank you so much!!!
Stitch the fourchettes on the palm side first, lay them so that the fourchette's edge lines up with the middle of the tip of each finger. stitch the entire palm side in one go, then trim the fourchettes to the profile of each finger. then close the glove. you can see a brief snippet of me doing this in my overview video.
@@skinnerdesignsca thank you so much!! It means a lot to have an expert willing to give me some tips! Can you please tell me what is the spacing of the pricking irons you use and the thread? thanks again. much love from portugal!!
@@alanb2325 thank you so much!
@@bananaeater4332 You don't pre punch holes when glove stitching. You use a sharp needle instead, and eyeball the stitch length. You make hand stitched gloves using a running stitch. I generally aim for about 3mm between stitches
@@skinnerdesignsca oh had no idea about that! Thank god i experimented with fabric first because I was about to punch the holes first on the leather now 😖 and what's the thickness of the thread? I have with me 0.5mm 0.8 and 1 but don't know which one to use
What kind of machine I need for made this gloves?
Pattern please!!!))
From where did you purchase the pony clamp?
Hi, I had it made by a local blacksmith. I gave her the specs/online references and photos of historical glove clamps. Try your local smith and see if they can fabricate it for you
Hi, what's the tool you are using during manual stitching?
its a glovers donkey
You have a pdf template please?
No, sorry.
