Daniel Storto Gloves

Undercover Glover

You’ve been known to have cold feet, an icy stare, and a frozen heart. 

But chilly hands? Never. ’Cause you cover your phalanges with beautiful gloves by Daniel Storto.

For today’s video, we visited the genius designer/artist at his studio in — get this — Gloversville, New York (the glove-making capital of the U.S. ’til about 1950), where he hand-makes all his wares.

Storto, who’s collaborated with Alexander McQueen, Dries Van Noten, Bob Mackie, and Derek Lam, generally sells his custom accessories for hundreds of dollars. But for a limited time, he’s selling a special elbow-length black pair for just $25 (!) on his site. (Check back: He’ll be putting up a new style with a similar price every few months.)

We’re kind of obsessed with the idea of wearing long, ’40s movie star-style gloves year-round.

It’s just plain hot.

Did somebody up and put a ring on it? We partnered with Crate & Barrel to give away a dream wedding — worth a whopping $100,000 — to one lucky couple. To enter, go to crateandbarrel.com/ultimatewedding.
