Elmer by Swany

Elmer by Swany is a glove label run by Swany Corporation, a glove and bag maker based in Higashikagawa, Kagawa. The name traces to Elmer Little & Sons, founded in 1893 in Gloversville, New York, a deerskin tanning and glovemaking hub; Swany now designs the line in Japan. Collections center on wool and recycled-wool knit gloves and mittens with fleece linings, leather trims, PrimaLoft insulation and touchscreen-compatible fingertips. Styles carry short Japanese model names and codes, and typically retail around €60-90 through menswear and sneaker stockists.
