Dents
Dents: One of Britain’s Oldest Craftmakers
Founded in 1777 by John Dent in Worcester, Dents is possibly Britain’s oldest fashion manufacturer—and still makes its Heritage Collection gloves in Warminster, Wiltshire, guided by centuries of tradition.
Dents gloves have served British royalty, including coronation gloves for George VI and Queen Elizabeth II, and featured in pop culture, from Downton Abbey to James Bond and Batman. The brand maintains full production in England. Relying on human touch, from hand-cutting to stitching, Dents preserves reserving its essence in every seam.
At Claymore Shop, we bring Dents because our clients understand that true refinement is in details that last—and gloves are as foundational to an outfit as the suit under it.
Gloves That Earn Your Hand, Not Flash a Logo
Claymore clients don't settle for trends—they build wardrobes with intent. Dents gloves offer that grounded confidence:
- Decades of craft excellence packed into every stitch.
- Heritage that matches the finish on your Edward Green or Crockett & Jones.
- Gloves that age gracefully, resisting fads and staying timeless.
- Functionality coded in elegance—for driving, layering, or standing calm when others rush.
In short: these gloves say you know what you’re doing—without telling.
