VANCOUVER, BC, JUNE 1, 2021—Herschel Supply Co. is proud to partner with Watson Gloves, Canada’s largest retail distributor of quality gloves on a collaborative glove made for work, play, and weekend projects in the Pacific Northwest.

Handmade in Vancouver, the limited-edition Herschel Shop Glove reimagines the original work glove with 100% premium full-grain leather.

“We’re excited to partner with another like-minded brand also founded in Vancouver, BC to collaborate on a shop glove that speaks to Watson Gloves high-quality craftsmanship as well as Herschel Supply’s approach to design,” says Jamie Cormack, Managing Director and Co-Founder at Herschel Supply. “The versatile glove incorporates signature Watson and Herschel design details while championing functional utility and is equally perfect for weekend projects in the backyard or a day on the motorbike.”

“Something that we are really proud of is our heritage,” says Laura Whitlock, Director of Marketing and Innovation at Watson Gloves. “Over a century in business with roots in Vancouver, partnering with Herschel, a company with similar family values, timeless product and a globally recognized brand, was an exciting moment for us.
