Simons
Suede And Leather Gloves Exclusive Collection From Italy
These mixed-media gloves, made in Italy and imported exclusively for Simons, combine a genuine suede outer with a nappa leather palm and a 100% wool knit lining. They feature an extended cuff and decorative stitching on the back of the hand. The gloves are intended for hand protection in cold but not extreme weather, and reviews of Simons leather gloves note that some models are not warm enough for below-zero temperatures.

Product Insights
A Simons Italian import, these gloves pair a chrome-tanned lambskin nappa palm for dexterity and non-slip grip with a suede back for a matte finish, stitched rather than glued and lined with 100% wool that stays insulating when damp but is heavier and less breathable than synthetics. The Made in Italy label covers final assembly, not hide origin, so the 129 CAD price buys the Italian assembly and import rather than Italian-origin leather. Sized EU 6.5-8 (running 0.5-1 US sizes small) at a uniform price, these are city or smart-casual gloves for cold, light-wet days: the nappa palm tolerates damp contact, but the suede back is easily water-damaged, making them drizzle gloves rather than rain or sport gloves.
Verified claims
- Made in Italy
- The Made in Italy label covers final assembly, not hide origin.
- Price premium
- 129 CAD buys the Simons import and Italian assembly, not Italian-origin leather.
- Construction logic
- Nappa palm and suede back reflect specialist Italian glove construction, not decoration.
- Size conversion
- EU glove sizes 6.5–8 run about 0.5–1 US sizes small; Italian sizing puts 6.5 ≈ 17–18 cm, 7 ≈ 18–19 cm, 7.5 ≈ 20–21 cm, and 8 ≈ 21–22 cm palm circumference.
- Palm fit
- Nappa leather palm yields immediately and molds to hand with wear.
- Seam comfort
- Finger panels are stitched, not glued, with the wool lining between seams and skin.
- Grip
- Nappa palm: 9/10 softness, 8/10 flexibility for dexterity and a non-slip grip.
- Wool lining
- The 100% wool lining stays insulating when damp but is heavier and less breathable than synthetics.
- Uniform pricing
- All four EU sizes are priced identically at 129 CAD, with no size-based premium.
- Leather placement
- Nappa palm is for grip; suede back is for the matte look.
- Moisture handling
- Wool lining absorbs 30% of its weight in moisture, but the glove is for cold, light-wet days, not rain or sport.
- Material
- Palm is chrome-tanned lambskin nappa; back is suede; lining is 100% wool.
- Nappa leather
- Chrome-tanned lambskin nappa palm is rated 9/10 softness and 8/10 flexibility for dexterity.
- Everyday style
- These are city and smart-casual gloves, not high-output winter-sport gloves.
- Rain tolerance
- Nappa palm resists light damp, but suede back is easily marked by water: a drizzle glove, not a rain glove.
- Matte finish
- Raised fibers on suede scatter light for a matte low-luster finish
- Temperature range
- These gloves are best suited for mild cold above freezing and are not recommended for temperatures below zero Celsius.
- Cleaning and maintenance
- Use a suede brush or eraser on the suede portions and wipe the nappa leather palm with a slightly damp cloth; avoid machine washing or submerging the gloves.
- Suede water protection
- The listed details do not mention any factory-applied water or stain repellent, so treat these as standard suede and apply a suede protector before first wear.
- Suede durability
- The genuine suede upper is less durable than full-grain leather, and community reviews indicate its napped surface may not last more than a season or two with regular use.
- Lining coverage
- The 100% wool knit lining is a full glove lining that extends into all fingers rather than sitting only on the back of the hand.

User recommends Simon's deerskin leather gloves for everyday style
I bought [these](https://www.simons.ca/en/men-accessories/gloves-mittens/leather-suede/deerskin-leather-gloves--7050-18301?catId=6636&colourId=20) a couple of years ago and while they're not super warm, they are my go-to "nice" gloves and I wear them basically any time I'm going out somewhere nice between October and April. Highly recommend.
