Frequently Asked Questions

What is peccary leather?

Peccary is leather from a wild boar species native to South America. Distinguished by clusters of three pores in the grain, the hide produces leather that is soft as silk yet three times stronger than lamb. Considered the most prized glove leather in the world.

Is peccary regulated?

Yes. Peccary is listed under CITES Appendix II, which means international trade is permitted only with documented permits and traceability from origin. Each hide we work with is traced from the regulated quota in Peru through tanning to final manufacture.

Why is peccary so expensive?

Limited supply (only regulated wild quotas, no farming), labour-intensive tanning to preserve the grain, very few European glovemakers handle it. The cost reflects rarity and craft. The pair is built to last decades rather than seasons.

How do I care for peccary gloves?

Peccary is more durable than lambskin and more forgiving with moisture. Blot dry if wet, air-dry at room temperature, condition once a season with a high-quality leather cream. Avoid the strongest commercial conditioners; the grain reads cleaner with minimal product.

What size should I order?

Measure the circumference of your dominant hand at the knuckles. View the men's size guide for the full method. Peccary stretches very little but moulds to the hand; pick your true size for a fit that holds for years.

The leather that costs more for a reason

Peccary is the most prized glove leather in the world. The animal is a wild boar from regulated quotas in Peru, distinguished by a grain marked with clusters of three pores. The leather is soft as silk, three times stronger than lamb, supplied in small batches under CITES Appendix II traceability.

Why peccary is rare: Peccary cannot be farmed; supply comes only from regulated wild hunts under permit. Each hide must be CITES-traced from origin through tanning to manufacture. We work with batches as they become available, not on a fixed annual production.

Hand-feel: Peccary's tensile strength means a thinner shell can handle the same wear as a heavier nappa. The result is a glove that is featherweight in the hand yet built for years of daily use. The grain reads cleanly under direct light, the famous triplet pores visible on every pair.

Who orders peccary: Leather collectors, drivers who appreciate the difference, wearers of bespoke suits looking for the matching glove. This is the top of the men's leather hierarchy.
