ExploreThe Chicago Difference
Crafted to
Last a Lifetime
Full-Grain Leather Only
We never use corrected or split leather. Every glove begins with the top layer of the hide — the strongest, most breathable cut.
Hand-Stitched Construction
Each pair is assembled by a single craftsman using a saddle stitch — the strongest seam in leatherwork, used since 1850.
Lifetime Craftsmanship Warranty
If a seam splits or hardware fails, we repair or replace it. No forms. No fuss. That's our promise since 1987.
Custom Monogramming
Add initials, a crest, or a date. Hand-stamped in gold or platinum foil — included free on orders over $200.
Know Your Leather
The Hides We Use
Not all leather is equal. We source exclusively from tanneries with 100+ years of heritage.
Peccary
The finest glove leather
Sourced from South American wild boar. Renowned for its unique pore pattern, extraordinary softness, and unsurpassed durability.
Nappa Lamb
Feather-soft & supple
From New Zealand Merino lambs. Impossibly soft with a buttery drape — the preferred choice for dress and evening gloves.
Buffalo Hide
Rugged & weather-resistant
Thick-grained full-grain buffalo with natural water resistance. Ideal for winter and outdoor gloves that must endure the elements.
Carpincho
Polo player's choice
From the South American capybara. Extremely pliable and grippy — used by professional polo players worldwide since the 1920s.

Perfect Fit
How to Measure
A glove should fit like a second skin — snug but never restrictive. Follow these three steps to find your size.
Wrap a tape measure around the widest part of your dominant hand, just below the knuckles. Exclude the thumb.
Note the measurement in inches. This is your glove size. If between sizes, size up for a comfortable fit.
For custom orders, also measure the length from the tip of your middle finger to your wrist.
Leather Care
Keep Them
Beautiful
Full-grain leather improves with age when treated with respect. A few minutes of care after each season will preserve your gloves for decades.
Store Properly
Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a cedar insert to maintain shape.
Condition Regularly
Apply a natural beeswax conditioner every 3–4 months to prevent drying and cracking.
Dry Naturally
If wet, reshape and allow to dry at room temperature. Never use a heater or hair dryer.
Spot Clean Only
Use a slightly damp cloth for surface marks. Never submerge in water or machine wash.
What They Say
Worn by Champions
I've competed in polo for 18 years and tried every glove on the market. Chicago Leather's carpincho polo gloves are in a completely different class — the grip is unreal and they've outlasted every other pair I've owned.
Ordered custom monogrammed nappa gloves as a gift for my husband. The presentation box, the quality, the fit — everything was impeccable. He hasn't taken them off since Christmas.
The peccary driving gloves are my signature piece. I wear them every time I drive — whether in my vintage Jaguar or daily commute. The leather has aged to the most beautiful cognac tone.
