TouchTec Gloves – What you didn’t know about Winter Leather Touch Screen Gloves

Posted on by The Glove Guru


Many phone calls this year about cell-phone and touch screen gloves has been largely generated with questions about three new leather models we just introduced.
The simple answer: “No! You do not have to remove the gloves.” 

That’s because these new revolutionary gloves combine the new TouchTec™ nanotechnology into fine glove leathers which enable “any” finger and thumb to navigate a touch screen.

I won’t bore you with all the technical mumbo jumbo since I know it’s more important to see the gloves we are taking about this year. 
The gloves getting all the kudos are three new models by the legendary Grandoe Glove Company and we offer both men’s and woman’s models. Another kicker – NO premium upcharge!
Now you can keep your hands warm when you’re out in the cold and using your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch without taking your gloves off – it’s possible with TouchTec-enabled gloves. You can even use the mouse pad on your favorite laptop computer. Try doing that with normal gloves on.
In closing, order today before they sell out. 

Your Cell Phone Gloves Source and Headquarters

Posted on by The Glove Guru


A year ago today I mentioned our record sales of cell phone gloves and one year later things haven’t changed. This past weekend we surpassed last year’s sales already. I’m not surprised since we expanded our cell phone glove choices to over 23 models and styles – not including all of the sizes and color options. 
In fact, we even have a special shopping page dedicated to Cell-Phone Gloves. This page makes it easier to narrow your choices down from all of our winter glove offerings and includes all of the men’s, women’s, and girl’s models ranging from fashion leathers to colorful knits. 
When shopping for cell-phone gloves you need to know that there are two types. One type has removable finger tips and thumb tops and the newer types are touch-screen versions. With either type you don’t have to remove your gloves in the cold weather to use your cell phone or tablets. 
We also offer a handy Gift Certificate option for those picky persons on your holiday shopping list. This way they can pick the model they prefer and you don’t have to guess on the size or color either. 
Although we are probably the largest source for cell-phone gloves, I wouldn’t delay. They will sell out fast since they make ideal gifts and stocking stuffers. 
Happy Holidays, The Glove Guru

The Mystery of Naked Metisse Leather Solved!

Posted on by The Glove Guru

When the new line of luxurious leather gloves by Grandoe arrived a few days ago (tagged: Made from Naked Metisse Leather), I struggled to recount my 2 decades of glove experience to interpret the meaning. I even beckoned our warehouse manager, Alaqui, a Moroccan who speaks fluent French, thinking it was one of those fancy words inspired by the French romantics. No luck there either. Google and my Webster’s failed me, too.

I then resorted to humble myself and go back to the source. First, I sent an e-mail to my new glove friend, Mike D’Arcy, one of the Czars at Grandoe, and asked for the meaning. His reply was simple as if I (The Glove Guru) should have known, “Metisse is the finest leather available.” Hmmmm, Thanks a bunch, Mike, I said to myself.

Thinking there was no way we could convince any of our customers from CPW (that’s Central Park West in case you’re not into NYC acronyms) that Naked Metisse leathers were the finest for gloves, I had to call Mike.

Mystery Solved: When I asked Mike on the phone, he simply chuckled. Instantly, I felt foolish but I still had to know. The nerve of him, I thought. After a short pause, he said laughing; it’s a word we made up! “OK, fine, but what is it, Italian Nappa? European lambskin?”, I asked.

Incredibly, I soon learned that these fifth generation glove makers from Grandoe were onto something new to me; old to them. The leathers they use (for more than a century) are made from Ethiopian Highland Sheepskins, which are the finest leathers available and have an international reputation for use in gloves. Sheep raised there near the Equator provide a softer and finer grain ideal for luxurious fine fashion leather gloves.

Now that I solved the mystery of Naked Metisse Leathers, I wonder who is going to make it to Wikipedia first, Mike or me. I know I’ll beat him to Google due to this post. He still gets kudos for the word and the gloves.
