The Best Kept Gloves Secret of 2011

Allen Edmonds Wool Flannel and Leather Gloves – $58.00

UPDATE:  These are sold out.  But there will be more.  See the other update below…

Just different enough.  With a wool flannel exterior, a strap at the wrist, leather palms, and a sub $60 price, these might rocket right to the top of many a Christmas list.  The fact that they’re from Allen Edmonds is an obvious huge bonus.  But browse around on their site and you won’t find them, even though they’re staring you right in the face:

Now you see them, now you… wait, actually you don’t see them.

If you’re scrolling through their hats/gloves/scarves section, you might take a look at the pair in the center and think those are just another basic glove with the standard three lines of stitching across the back.  Mouse over and the pic doesn’t even change.  You have to click to get to the item page, and that’s where you’re greeted with the wool version.

UPDATE: The wool/flannel are sold out for now, but should be available after Thanksgiving

For whatever reason, the all leather versions are now only showing on the interior.  Although it says “black calf and wool” the flannel exteriors aren’t available online.  Word is they might get more after Thanksgiving.

Drop them in your cart, and the small pic returns to the all leather.  But the style description says “Black Calf Leather and Wool.”  They aren’t made in the USA, but instead are “imported exclusively for Allen Edmonds.”  So who knows where they’re made.

Just like the minus worlds in Mario Bros.  They’re there.  All you have to do is know how to get to them.
