Gradient Gloves - Mission Workshop Collaboration, Black

GRADIENT

HIGH-PERFORMANCE SHORT CUFFED GLOVES

Versatility would come to mind first when describing the Gradient - our latest collaboration with Mission Workshop. Developed from and inspired by our classic Strasse series, the length has been pared down to cut just above the wrist, which allows not only total range of motion for any possible function but also guarantees 3-season use from cold days out in the city to long hauls cycling or exploring the backcountry.

Just like our previous collaborations, the Gradient is handmade in California in numbered batches to create the perfect melding of classic craftsmanship and material technology with practical details to prolong life and equip you for the long haul.

The top of hand utilizes Schoeller®-comfortshell soft-shell for warmth, breathability and weather resistance. The 4-way stretch, water and wind repelling textiles are bonded with the highly breathable c_change® membrane for adaptability in changing conditions. It is finished with NanoSphere® for extra water and oil repellency.

The palm side is constructed with Pittards® WR100X leather for grip comfort and tactile sensitivity. WR100X leather comes from the African Hair sheep and is conditioned and treated in the UK to provide water resistance, softness and durability.

As with all Philleywood gloves, we make with meticulous attention to detail & personally inspect each pair before numbering and adding to the batch.
