Kilt sock glovies

Fingerless tie dyed glovies made from dead-stock kilt socks with stripe cotton binding and ties. Each pair of gloves are made to order and come in either worker blue or shocking pink. If you would like to mix and match colours please state when placing your order.

These glovies are made from dead-stock kilt socks donated by Edinburgh based Gordon Nicolson Kiltmakers and stripe cotton. Each pair are inspired by wraps that the local fish wife’s would make by tearing up old rags and wrapping them round their hands with twine. This was to prevent the women from cutting their hands when gutting fish. Similar wraps were made from old stockings for fisherman, this was also to prevent any damage to their hands, in particular salt blisters when at sea.

Each pair of socks is washed and hand dyed in London. Please allow 2 weeks production time from placing your order.
