Description
Leather Yugake (Yukake – samurai gloves), are handmade with white or brown genuine deer leather with optional egawa (printed designs).  They are the perfect accessory for comfort and added protection for sword use. Designed after original yukake (leather gloves) used by samurai in the Sengoku and Edo Eras.
Iron Mountain Armory yugake gloves are crafted from quality deer leather with several options of egawa design. Traditionally the white leather would be smoked to give it a yellow tint or fusube gawa (brown color), and then the designs would be hand embossed onto the leather.  We use tanned leather and print the designs directly onto the leather using a high quality artisan process with modern techniques.  These techniques help us keep our leather yugake affordable compared to more traditional egawa yugake. Please inquire via email or on your order form, about our custom design options.

Ordering Tips: Leather does not stretch. We recommend ordering 1 size larger of these leather Yugake to ensure the best fit. Â Because hand sizes and shapes differ we can not guarantee the perfect fit.
Our leather Yugake are handmade by Iron Mountain Armory at the time of your order. Please allow at least 2 – 3 weeks for crafting of this item. There might be delays if leather color / egawa design isn’t available. We will do our best to keep you informed.

I LOVE these leather yugake! The sizing was perfect for my hands, just make sure you measure carefully. The leather work was amazing and the yugake have a very genuine feel. Not to mention they look great when you’re wearing your armor!

Well made and comfortable. Ordered the exact same egawa that is on the picture but they had no colour on them.
