Nursey's Sheepskin Gloves are a hallmark of British heritage and natural luxury. Our collection combines the finest materials with meticulous workmanship, resulting in durable, exceptionally warm gloves and mitts suitable for every British winter.

We understand quality. Every item in our range, whether Handmade in our Suffolk workshop by third-generation glove makers or sourced and crafted outside the UK by specialist artisans, undergoes rigorous finishing, trimming, and checking to guarantee a consistent fit and feel across the entire range. This dedication to expertise ensures you invest in timeless accessories built to last for generations.

Why Choose Nursey's Real Sheepskin Gloves?

Real sheepskin operates fundamentally differently from synthetic alternatives. Its wool is naturally moisture-wicking and temperature regulating, meaning hands stay warm in deep cold while avoiding the clamminess and overheating common in milder conditions. The wool fibres trap small pockets of air, providing superior insulation without heavy bulk.

  • Authentic Construction: We specialise in real double-faced sheepskin for many styles, ensuring the wool is an integral part of the skin, not glued on as a separate lining. This provides maximum longevity and warmth.

  • Artisan Craftsmanship: Our gloves reflect the same careful workmanship found across our wider collection. Patterns are hand-cut to ensure a natural shape that follows the hand, while seams are hand-stitched for superior comfort and durability.

  • UK Quality Assurance: The Nursey's company heritage means every pair, regardless of origin, meets our exact cutting and finishing standards set right here in the UK.

Choosing Your Perfect Sheepskin Glove

When selecting from our collection, consider the activity and the level of warmth required:

Requirement Recommended Style Key Feature
Deep Winter Cold Full finger traditional mitts or double-faced sheepskin gloves. Maximum insulation; reduced cold exposure.
City; Office Use Slim leather gloves with a natural lining (e.g., cashmere). Refined look; less bulk; moderate warmth.
Active Use & Grip Fingerless gloves and shooting mitts. Warmth over the back of the hand; maximum finger dexterity for tasks/screens.
Outdoor Durability Styles treated with water and stain resistance.

Extra protection against rain and light moisture.

 

Real Sheepskin vs. Synthetic

Feature Real Sheepskin Gloves Synthetic Winter Gloves
Moisture Management Naturally moisture-wicking; manages sweat for comfortable wear. Can trap sweat, leading to cold hands once moisture cools.
Longevity Lasts for many winters with proper care. Wool fibres retain spring. Linings flatten more quickly; lifespan is generally shorter.
Material Base Natural byproduct; temperature regulating and breathable. Plastic base; relies on trapped air without breathability.

 

Care, Sizing, and Investment

Real sheepskin gloves benefit from simple care: allow wet gloves to dry slowly at room temperature, and brush the wool gently once dry to lift the fibres. A proper fit is essential for warmth and longevity, so always consult our detailed Size Guide before purchasing.

You will find options across a range of prices, allowing you to choose the level and style that suits your wardrobe and budget, whether you prefer British-made gloves from our Suffolk workshop or classic styles sourced to our precise UK standards.

Are Sheepskin Gloves truly warmer than synthetic gloves?

Real Sheepskin Gloves hold warmth exceptionally well because the wool fibres trap air and naturally help manage moisture. This often results in hands feeling comfortable for longer than in synthetic gloves, especially during cold, dry weather.

Do Sheepskin Gloves stretch?

Sheepskin has a small natural give. Your gloves may feel snug when new, but they will settle to the unique shape of your hand with wear. They should never restrict movement. Always check our Size Guide before selecting.

What is the difference between your British-made and sourced styles?

British-made Sheepskin Gloves and mitts are cut and stitched in our Suffolk workshop by third-generation glove makers. Other styles are sourced and crafted outside the UK by specialist artisans. All styles pass the same quality checks to guarantee a consistent fit and feel.

Can I wear Sheepskin Gloves for driving?

Yes, many customers use both full finger and fingerless styles for driving. Fingerless options provide the most feel for the wheel and controls. Always ensure the fit is secure before driving.
