Your horse gallops out onto the fields of a vast plain, chasing after the few orcs fleeing from your arrows. Your horsebow gleams beneath the sunlight, and every arrow you let fly finds its mark. With balance and elven grace, you reach for another arrow in your quiver.
The orcs made a mistake when they entered your family’s forest. You successfully taunted their scouting party into a trap, and now all that is left is a little cleanup.
DETAILS
Epic Armoury’s Hand Protection is designed to protect an archer from the bowstring and arrow during use. Handmade from durable chrome-tanned leather, this glove covers the index finger to the thumb of the left-hand. When used on the bow-hand, this glove will fit around the bow and cover the exposed skin that would otherwise risk injury from arrow feathers or recoiling bowstrings.
This Hand Protection’s edges have been stitched to improve the product’s structure and to increase its lifetime. Adjust this glove using a velcro closure around the wrist. Perfect for archers or someone wanting to look the part.
Available left- or right-handed; and in colours Black and Brown.

Natural leather products are very durable, but require regular maintenance with leather care products to stay flexible and to increase life-time. Make sure your leather products are kept dry when stored. Let wet leather dry naturally before treating. If frequently wet and dry, increase frequency of maintenance.
Cleaning
Clean by removing dirt with a hard brush, then gently rub on leather soap with a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove soap with a separate damp cloth to wipe away any soap residue and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.
Conditioning
You should always condition leather after cleaning, since the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax polish with a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or polish in circles into the leather. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping the leather with a final clean cloth to remove any excess residue.
