Gordini launches 3-D-Knit gloves with patented ErgoKnit technology

Our proprietary 3-D knitting technique reduces seams in high-impact areas, for gloves that provide more warmth and durability with less bulk. Engineered flex points increase dexterity and range of motion. We’ve applied this same technology in our neckwarmers, designed to be stretchy, quick-drying, and breathable.

Gordini develops CLUTCH™ synthetic leather, a responsible alternative to animal leather

Inspired by the success we had with this material in our work gloves, we adapted this polyurethane-based technology for our most rugged gloves and mitts yet. In addition to being more durable and breathable than traditional animal leathers, the manufacturing process for Clutch is more resource-efficient, using just 4 chemicals (as opposed to the 48 used in leather tanning) and consuming just 40% of the water. The end result: more consistent quality, coloration, and thickness for longer-lasting gloves.

Gordini partners with Libre Designfor brand refresh and launches an updated Gordini.com
