wutong吴

in shanghai, the plane trees that line the old french concession are called 梧桐, wutong. london’s streets are lined with plane trees too, and each leaf opens like a hand.

the name begins with 吴, wu, the family name behind the label, and the leaves fall just as it turns cold enough for gloves.

we make handmade gloves in nappa leather, suede and calf hair, in small runs of each colour, all in size 7.

不来也不去: leaves come and go, and the tree stays.

every order ships tracked from the uk (in-stock pairs the next business day, pre-orders within 14 days), delivery is free to the uk and eu (£15 to the rest of the world), and you can return your order within 14 days of delivery.

a gift that is worn every day: handmade leather gloves for christmas 2026

published , by wutong studio, 3 minute read

the short answer

wutong studio, handmade nappa leather gloves. each pair is cut, stitched and finished by hand, in size 7. a leather gloves gift is worn most days from november to march. this winter it is also part of what the runways showed.

black nappa leather gloves with a long fringe in black, tan and cream knotted at the wrist, laid flat

the 008 knotted fringe gloves are in stock and leave the next business day. last day to order for christmas: fri 18 dec.

why gloves are the gift this winter

net-a-porter's porter called gloves the finishing touch of fall/winter 2026. max mara styled all 45 of its looks with long suede gloves, and sportmax, balenciaga, ralph lauren and khaite used gloves to finish many of theirs1. who what wear listed leather gloves among the season's seven accessory trends2.

fringe ran through the same shows, from bottega veneta to burberry34. a fringed glove ties the two together.

the gift also has a plain reason. it is used. a pair of gloves goes out every cold morning.

what to look for: leather, stitching, fit

leather. nappa should feel soft and smooth, and give a little when you flex your hand.

stitching. look along the fingers. the seams should be even and close, with no pulling at the fingertips.

fit. a leather glove should be snug at first. it softens and settles to the hand over a few wears. our guide on how leather gloves should fit goes through it.

sizing a gift: what size 7 fits

every wutong style comes in size 7. it is a small-to-medium hand. if you aren't sure, compare with a glove they already wear.
