Description
As the name suggests, day gloves (sometimes referred to as ‘street gloves’) were worn as gentlemen sauntered about their daily lives, whether visiting their club, meeting their tailor, or conducting important business affairs. Not only did gloves keep their hands warm, but they were also worn for health and cleanliness reasons, too.
You see, Edwardian men were worried about picking up germs, so by covering their hands in a protective layer, they felt more likely to stay in good health.
