You’ve probably noticed that most of those gloves are pretty utilitarian with bulky, thick bodies in bland colors like black or dark gray. These gloves are a far cry from the colorful, fine gloves that were once common in menswear. These colorful gloves were often called day gloves. Because they were worn during the day as part of regular attire and were distinct from formal evening gloves. 01:35 → Gloves as Class Marker 02:54 → Environmental Evolution 04:07 → From Fashion to Functionality 06:02 → Day Gloves Become Formal and Superfluous 06:59 → Cost and Quality: Modern Glove Production 08:20 → Cartoons and Caricatures Featuring Gloves 10:00 → Gendered Gloves 10:39 The Decline in Overall Glove-Wearing We’ll briefly conclude by noting that the decline in the use of day gloves parallels a decline in other forms of non-utilitarian men's gloves. We’ll briefly conclude by noting that the decline in the use of day gloves parallels a decline in other forms of non-utilitarian men's gloves. 11:10 Conclusion We have no intention of leaving you on a sad note as we conclude our examination of why men stopped wearing colorful day gloves. So to brighten the mood and add some color, we’ll say that just because colorful gloves have fallen out of favor doesn’t mean you shouldn’t wear them! Not only can modern-day gloves keep your hands warm, but they also remain the perfect accessory for adding unexpected visual interest or a dash of color to any outfit. We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how much a pair of colorful day gloves can change the overall look of your wardrobe. 12:17 Outfit Rundown
