Product Insights
Simons' collaboration with Auclair yields the Manon Plush Trim Suede Gloves, a single-piece suede shell with internal seams and continuous palm to block wind and cold infiltration, rated for 0-10°C with Thinsulate C40 fill, but the suede exterior is damaged by moisture so gloves are unsuitable for rain or heavy snow and require spot-cleaning only; the polyester sherpa cuff is low-profile and slides under sleeves, yet the gloves run small and lack touchscreen compatibility.
