Mission Workshop Launches 3-Season Gradient Glove for Optimal Performance
Mission Workshop’s Gradient glove ($165) collaboration with Philleywood offers a versatile design. Whether you’re navigating chilly city streets or tackling demanding hikes, this glove guarantees 3-season wearability. These are hand-made premium gloves designed and proudly made one batch at a time in the USA with the finest materials from around the world. Supreme fit and meticulous attention to detail guaranteed with every pair.
Developed from the long cuffed Strasse, the length is pared down to cut just above the wrist. This allows not only total range of motion for any possible function but also guarantees 3-season use from cold days out in the city to long days cycling or exploring the backcountry. For the upcoming ’23 edition, Mission Workshop has chosen a striking palette of black and midnight navy for their softshell gloves. And for the first time ever, they are offering size XS gloves to fit those with smaller hands.
The Gradient is crafted in the U.S.A., with each batch labeled and numbered to create a harmonious blend of classic craftsmanship, modern materials, and functional features for optimum comfort and longevity.
