Extra Long Leather Gloves

When a gown has no sleeves at all, our extra long leather gloves carry the line high up the arm: they are cut 27.6 or 31.5 inches (70 or 80 cm) long in lined sheepskin leather. An invisible zip along the forearm opens the glove so it goes on smoothly, then closes flat. Colors are black, red, pink and white.

Where 70 cm and 80 cm Leather Gloves Finish

Our arm diagram places both lengths on the upper arm. The 70 cm pair covers most of it; the 80 cm length goes further, a choice for tall wearers or for anyone who wants an unbroken line of color toward the shoulder. Lengths are measured overall, fingertips included. For the 70 cm length, choose a palm size from S, 6.7 inches (17 cm), up to XXL, 8.3 inches (21 cm).

Styling Extra Long Gloves in Four Colors

Black with a strapless gown for opera night; red with black velvet for a holiday gala; pink with a pale beaded dress for a spring wedding reception; white for debutante balls and white-tie dinners. Keep jewelry to the wrist and ears so the long sweep of leather stays the focus. Our opera gloves hold shorter lengths too.

Extra Long Leather Gloves FAQ

Why is there a zip?

Close-fitting leather has far less give than satin. The zip lets the glove open wide enough to pass the hand and wrist, then closes for a sleek fit.

What are they made of?

Sheepskin leather on the outside, with a lining inside.

Which length for a petite frame?

70 cm. The 80 cm pair can bunch on a shorter arm, which some like as a ruched effect, though most prefer it smooth.

Prefer a different color?
