Keep your hands cozy but still functional with these classic fingerless gloves. The magic lies in the lace weight wool yarn, which creates a light but toasty fabric, making these the perfect practical wearables to keep on hand whenever you need just that touch of warmth.

Named after the Plebeius Class in Ancient Rome, the class that included folks who often worked with their hands - a fitting tribute for a pair of practical fingerless gloves honoring the virtue of simplicity.
