The family business Hestra was founded in 1936. Inspired by the changing conditions of the Småland forests, the work began to meet the need for gloves for every occasion, which they still do today. With Europe's best glove makers in their stable and with their own factories in Hestra where leather, fabric, lining and other materials are purchased, quality is a guarantee. From design, through manufacturing to the final product, Hestra's skilled craftsmen have control over the entire production chain to ensure top results. For over 80 years, Hestra has warmed our hands on cold winter days, kept our fingers dry during wet forest walks and helped us maintain fingertip sensation when doing needlework. As durable as they are durable, Hestra provides us with uncompromising quality right down to those gloved fingertips.
