Brooklyn, New York-based Insiders1 brings us these Urban Runway Gloves. Each pair of gloves is imprinted with Sigal de Mayo's [urban photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leica-luxury-leather-goods).

The photographic images are printed by hand onto leather at the company's [Brooklyn Navy Yard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vanilla-rice-eau-de-parfum) factory. Once printed, the leather is sewn into accessories, [gloves and bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linkdesigns). The gloves are made from Lycra and lined with polar fleece so your digits will remain both warm and stylish.
