We break down the essentials when it comes to producing high-end PECCARY Gloves: gentl.mn/pecca...
These HydroPeccary Gloves from Fort Belvedere are a must-have in your collection! gentl.mn/2iLXNZf
What is hydro peccary?
Basically, it is a peccary leather skin of the highest grade from Peru, tanned in Germany, however, we are the first company in the world to add an agent to the leather that makes it water resistant. Basically, we wanted a leather that was more functional in everyday life without sacrificing the marshmallow soft subtleness as well as characteristic of the natural peccary leather. So Fort Belvedere hydro peccary leather is the softest glove leather you can find in the world today, at the same time, it is also water resistant and stain resistant.
So are Fort Belvedere hydro peccary gloves waterproof?
Well no, they're not. They're not quite like a rubber glove because they have seams that are made by hand. Because of that, water can penetrate that, but in general, for everyday activities, it's totally fine and we like to call it water resistant.
So apart from the hydro peccary leather that is really the first and only of its kind in the world today, what else makes our gloves so special?
One is that they are hand cut by master cutters in Hungary with over 30 years of glove cutting experience. The era of cutting is a dying trade and you'll probably find less than a hundred people in the world who really know that craft. Now it may sound easy to just cut a glove shape from a piece of leather, however, because peccary is a wild animal, it has lots of scars and holes and a skilled cutter has to cut around them to get the maximum yield for every skin.
Now, we have reduced that seam which means your glove is made from one piece of leather reaching from here, all the way over here, that means you can only use the very highest quality skins because lower quality skins will have more imperfections. Once the Fort Belvedere hydro peccary gloves are cut, they are then hand sewn in Hungary by very skilled sewers who have specialized in glove making for over a century.
The fourth hallmark of a Fort Belvedere hydro peccary glove is the hand-stitched points which are the three lines you see on the back of the hand or the back of the glove. The points don't serve a functional purpose and they're merely decorative because of that, we wanted to keep it in line with the hand stitching.
The fifth thing that makes our gloves special are the quirks. By that, I mean the little triangles in between your fingers that add an extra room of movement for your hand without feeling constricted at any point in time.
The sixth hallmark of our gloves is the lining. In the past, we used alpaca linings for our peccary gloves because alpaca is actually warmer than cashmere, at the same time, it is not as soft. Because peccary leather itself is very soft, we wanted to make sure to get the softest lining we can that is likewise warm and so we chose Italian finished cashmere.
The seventh thing that makes Fort Belvedere gloves different is the contrasting elements at the piping, at the buttons, and the quirks, and the thread. We use the dark Fort Belvedere signature green color and it adds a visual contrast which is quite interesting, handsome, and at the same time, recognizable.
Last but not least, Fort Belvedere gloves feature a button closure which has a distinct 1920s and 30s style. The idea is to create something that helps you keep your hands warm and at the same time, look elegant. Again, it's a little detail that takes more time and it's more expensive to produce but we believe is worth it and it's something you will not find in other gloves.
