Overview

This edition of our Cortex series features the last leather skins bought from our go-to UK tannery before they closed in fall '23 - the end of an era, so to speak.

They're a tale of two sides - luxury classic vibes at top of hand paired with ultra rugged texture at palm. As with our previous Cortex editions, they're the ultimate in versatility, resilience and function. Made for multiple terrains and endeavors, they’re performance detailed, extremely durable, supremely comfortable and perfectly fitted at the wrist.

Two kinds of Pittards® leathers are used:

- Palm side uses Keratan™ goatskin. Used exclusively for our TAD collabs', it's treated to increase the abrasion protection and durability of the skin with it’s unique “etched diamond” surface. This is bonded to the leather’s fiber structure and allows the leather to retain flexibility and maximum abrasion resistance.

- Top of hand, thumb, Palm heel padding, binding and pull strap uses African Hairsheep leather. It delivers tactile sensitivity, exceptional comfort, extended softness and durability.

Both leathers are additionally treated with a WR100X finish. They are water and perspiration resistant - the UK tanning process permanently protects the leather fibers, both limiting water uptake and helping reduce damage from perspiration.

Cortex gloves are made in collaboration with our friends at Triple Aught Design – a San Francisco based company committed to making high quality gear and apparel in the USA for the capable individual.

As with all Philleywood gloves, they’re handmade in California with meticulous attention to detail. We inspect each pair before numbering and adding to the batch.
