Shooting Gloves

Not being a glove wearer myself I had to do a bit of research into why people wear shooting gloves. I didnt really appreciate that many people wear them simply to improve the tactile effect of the hand on the barrels and that these people always wear them - so their glove requirements are quite different to those who wear them in cold or very cold weather.

So we now stock 3 types of glove; these are all made by a very old established firm of glovers in Dorset who use the very best dark green Pittard leather. They make a wide range of both Ladies and Gents sizes to fit everyone.

Pittard WR100X leather is the world leader in the sporting glove market. It shrugs off moisture and allows perspiration to escape without any change to the structure of the leather , it is used in many applications in the sporting world.

The CLAY PIGEON glove is unlined with a slit or top hat trigger finger, the wrist is elasticated and fastened by an adjustable velcro strap. This glove seems to worn by the person who likes that tactile feel on the barrels and always wears a glove ( or gloves ) whatever the weather. The MARKSMAN is an all round glove, beautifully made with a real silk lining and proper fine nylon cuffs with an elasticated wrist, I would suggest that this is the glove most guns would wear when in November it starts to get colder. It is made in dark green Pittards WR100X leather with a pleasing pepper pot print - this is the classic shooting glove in very best quality.

The MOORLAND is for those with cold hands. It is similar to the Marksman but lined with the finest of suede lamb to cover the back of your hands ( not the fingers ) this glove will keep the coldest of hands warm but will also allow you to keep that essential contact with the gun barrels.

Finally for those that lose gloves or need several pairs we have the EVERYDAY glove this is a close copy of The clay pigeon glove at half the price, this a well made glove that will give excellent service but wont break the bank.
