Vermont Glove
Est. 1975
Heritage & History
Vermont Glove was established in Randolph, Vermont as one of a number of small New England leather goods manufacturers that developed after World War II to serve the agricultural and construction trades. While most American leather glove manufacturing moved overseas through the 1980s and 1990s, Vermont Glove maintained its Randolph operation and its commitment to domestic craftsmanship.
The result is a company that today stands as one of very few remaining American manufacturers of leather work gloves. Vermont Glove produces deerskin, cowhide, pigskin, and split leather gloves using North American leather and American labor — a distinction that has become increasingly rare in the work glove category and increasingly valued by buyers who want a product they can trust.
Made in Randolph, Vermont
Every Vermont Glove is cut, sewn, and finished in Randolph, Vermont. The production process begins with the selection of leather appropriate for each glove style — deerskin for driver and light work gloves where dexterity matters most, cowhide for general farm and construction work where durability is paramount, and pigskin for wet environments where natural breathability is an advantage.
The Randolph facility employs skilled glove cutters and sewers whose work requires precise hand skills that machinery cannot fully replicate. The patterns are cut to maximize leather yield while maintaining the grain direction that gives each palm its strength. The seam placement is designed to minimize contact with the hand during use — a detail that separates a well-designed work glove from one that causes blisters.
What Sets Them Apart
Vermont Glove's domestic production guarantees something that imported work gloves cannot: traceability. When Vermont Glove says deerskin, it's North American deerskin tanned and finished to standards the company can verify. When they say full-grain leather, it's the outer surface of the hide — the tightest, most durable layer — rather than corrected-grain or split leather marketed under misleading names.
For buyers who work with their hands daily, the quality difference between a Vermont Glove and a cheap import becomes apparent within weeks. Vermont Glove's stitching uses heavier thread at higher thread counts; the gloves hold their shape and function as the leather ages and conforms to the wearer's hand. The American agricultural and construction workers who have trusted Vermont Glove for decades understand this distinction through experience.
