Hestra

Hestra is an old brand that has grown over time to become a world-renowned brand across the globe. Hestra was founded back in 1936 in a small province in Sweden called Småland. It was started by Martin Magnusson and his family who created handmade gloves for workers in the forest. They did this for several years until skiers discovered the quality of Hestra gloves. Skiers have been doing this ever since, with Hestra now supplying gloves to 25 different countries, with more than 400 styles on the market. This includes everything from everyday gloves to hardcore skiers, ensuring an extremely wide range. The company is still run by the Magnusson family, with 3 generations now having taken over. The focus of the family business is still on making quality gloves that should fit any hand to provide the best comfort on the market.

Since the mid-90s, Hestra has focused greatly on delivering an environmentally friendly glove that leaves the smallest possible CO2 footprint on the planet. Since then, they have looked to optimize the production chain with an eye to ensuring a better environment. This goes down to the smallest detail, where the transport and material of the products are controlled and improved. In addition, Hestra has always delivered a glove that has had a long lifespan in a durable material. This allows us to keep the glove for a longer time, and this way, also ensure a better environment. Hestra has two teams, one founded in 1995 and the other in 2008, that only focus on improving an environmentally friendly production.

Since its early beginnings in 1937, Hestra has had a strong focus on delivering top-quality gloves. They still focus on this, using only the best materials in everything from leather, goatskin, fibers, etc. As Hestra has grown over the years, consumer needs have become more diverse. Therefore, Hestra also produces everything from mittens, 5-finger gloves, 3-finger gloves, leather gloves, etc. The mittens ensure you an extremely warm and comfortable glove, where comfort is of the highest priority. However, your mobility with a mitten is reduced as your four fingers are connected. 5-finger gloves are the classic glove, providing maximum mobility and the ability to use all fingers. However, this type of glove is slightly cooler to wear compared to a mitten. The golden middle ground must be Hestra's 3-finger glove, where the little finger, ring finger, and middle finger are "connected," while the index finger is free. This gives a very warm glove, where mobility is still retained as the index finger is kept free.

Ski gloves come in many different types, but some elements are a must-have when buying a ski glove. A good glove is a waterproof glove that has a good grip and a good fit for your hand. It is therefore important to take a thorough look at the size guide before purchasing or try a few pairs in our physical stores.

Hestra produces a wide range of top-quality products that do not go unnoticed by professionals. This is evident with the world-renowned cross-country skier, Johannes Klæbo, who uses an Ergo Grip Windstopper Race glove from Hestra. The same goes for Mike Douglas, best known for inventing the TwinTip ski. Mike has been skiing for 23 years and therefore has many years of experience with good and bad gloves. It is therefore no coincidence that Mike wears a top-quality Hestra glove, which is essential for cold days on the mountain.
