Gloves Manufacturers in Pakistan
We connect you with gloves manufacturers in Pakistan that we have checked ourselves, for sports, safety and leather gloves. First we verify the factory; then we follow your order and inspect it before shipment.
Working With Gloves Manufacturers in Pakistan Through an Agent
ProQ Sourcing is a sourcing and inspection agent in Sialkot, not a glove factory. We connect buyers with verified gloves manufacturers in Pakistan, and then stay on your side through sampling, production and final inspection. You buy directly from the factory, while we check that what you approved is what gets packed.
Sialkot has made gloves for export for decades, especially leather sports and work gloves. As a result, the area has cutting rooms, tanneries, latex and padding suppliers, and skilled stitching teams. However, quality between units varies a lot. For example, one factory may stitch a goalkeeper glove perfectly and still struggle with a cut-resistant liner.
That is why glove sourcing needs a match between product and factory, not just a low quote. So we find that match first, and then we manage the order.
What We Source in Gloves
Gloves look simple, but each type has its own materials, construction and weak points. Below are the groups we source most often.
Sports gloves
Goalkeeper gloves combine a latex palm, a foam or neoprene backhand and a wrist strap. Palm latex grade decides grip and wear: softer contact latex grips better but wears faster. Cut styles include flat, roll finger and negative cut. In addition, some buyers ask for finger protection spines, which we check for fit and stitching.
Boxing gloves use leather or PU shells over layered foam, with lace-up or hook-and-loop closures. MMA gloves, by contrast, are lighter, with open fingers and thinner padding. Because padding shifts over time, we check foam density, weight per pair and stitching at the thumb, where most failures start.
Cycling gloves use synthetic suede or silicone-printed palms with gel pads and mesh backs. Weightlifting and training gloves add wrist wraps and reinforced palms. For winter riding, on the other hand, buyers specify windproof shells, fleece linings and touchscreen fingertips. We then check sizing, pad placement and closure strength.
Golf gloves are usually thin cabretta (sheep) leather or synthetic, sold singly by hand. Baseball fielding gloves are thick, stiff leather with laced webbing, so leather grade and lacing matter most. Batting gloves need a soft palm and good finger movement. We therefore check leather thickness, stitching and left/right hand counts.
Work and safety gloves
Work gloves come in cowhide, buffalo, goat or pig leather, either full-grain or split. Welding gloves add long cuffs, heat-resistant lining and aramid thread, so seams do not burn through. Since leather thickness varies from hide to hide, we measure it on samples and check that bulk stays within your tolerance.
Coated gloves pair a knitted liner (polyester, nylon or HPPE for cut resistance) with a nitrile, latex or PU dip. Nitrile resists oil, latex grips in wet conditions, and PU keeps fingertip feel. For cut levels, buyers specify EN 388 or ANSI/ISEA 105 ratings, and we check the supplier’s test reports against them.
Mechanic gloves use synthetic leather palms, stretch backs and TPR (thermoplastic rubber) guards over the knuckles. Impact gloves follow the same idea with heavier protection. Therefore we check that guards are firmly bonded or stitched, that fingertips allow fine work, and that sizing is consistent across the size run.
Winter work gloves add thermal linings and waterproof inserts, while hi-vis gloves use fluorescent fabric and reflective strips on the back. For both, comfort and dexterity are often the trade-off. So we compare samples with your intended use, and we also check insert seams, reflective tape adhesion and colour.
How We Check a Glove Factory
Not every one of the gloves manufacturers in Pakistan that sends you a quote is the right fit. So before we shortlist a unit, we check the points below. Our full method is on the supplier verification in Pakistan page.
Leather source and grading
We ask where hides come from and how the factory grades them. As a result, you know whether you are paying for full-grain or split leather.
Cutting accuracy
Gloves are cut with dies or by hand. We check die condition and how cutters handle leather stretch, because poor cutting shows up as uneven fingers.
Stitching skill
Glove stitching is fine work. So we watch operators on fourchettes (the strips between fingers) and thumbs, where weak seams usually open first.
Material suppliers
Latex, foam, liners and coatings often come from outside suppliers. We therefore ask for their test reports and see how incoming material is checked.
Product specialisation
A unit strong in goalkeeper gloves is not automatically good at welding gloves. Instead, we match each glove type to units that already make it.
Capacity and timing
Finally, we count stitching lines and compare them with your quantity and delivery date, along with the orders already on the floor.
Quality Checks on Glove Orders
Glove defects are easy to miss in a photo, yet they show up fast in use. For that reason, we check during production and again before packing; both visits are explained on our inspection services in Pakistan page.
For safety gloves, we also compare test reports with the ratings printed on the glove and packaging. EN 388, for example, rates abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance. This overview of cut-resistant gloves explains how those ratings work.
What we check
- Size and fit against your size chart (hand length, palm width)
- Leather thickness and materials against the spec
- Grip, padding and closure function
- Logo position, print and embroidery quality
- Left/right pairing, labels and packing
Defects we look for
- Uneven or twisted fingers
- Open or skipped seams at fourchettes and thumbs
- Colour variation between leather panels
- Latex delamination or uneven coating
- Loose straps and weak hook-and-loop
- Mismatched pairs
Why Sialkot for Gloves
Sialkot’s glove industry grew out of leather work and sports goods, so many units here make both sports and work gloves. In addition, tanneries, latex suppliers and packaging printers sit within easy reach.
As a result, one visit can cover the factory, its leather source and its subcontractors. That keeps checks fast and makes it harder for problems to stay hidden. Most units here also export regularly, so they already understand size charts, labelling and pre-shipment inspections.
For buyers of leather gloves, Pakistan offers a mature supply base. Even so, leather grade must still be checked order by order.
Glove Categories We Cover
Sports Gloves
Goalkeeper, boxing, MMA, cycling, golf, baseball and training gloves.
Safety Gloves
Cut-resistant, coated, mechanic, welding, gardening, military and hi-vis gloves.
Each category page goes deeper into types, materials and test points. See our pages on sports gloves suppliers in Pakistan and safety gloves manufacturers in Pakistan. Leather gloves sit within these two groups, depending on use.
Custom Gloves and Private Label
If you need a custom gloves supplier for your own brand, the small details decide the result. However, branding choices also affect cost and timing, so we review them with the factory before sampling.
- Logo by silicone print, screen print, embroidery, debossing or rubber patch
- Custom palm materials, colours and padding layouts
- Woven labels, size tags and care labels inside the cuff
- Header cards, hang tags, polybags and boxed pairs
- Barcodes and carton marks for your warehouse
For OEM gloves, the factory makes the glove to your design and spec sheet. Therefore we start with a clear spec and an approved sample, and we keep that sample as the standard for inspection. You can see how this fits into a full order on our how it works page.
Questions About Glove Orders
Orders, samples and sizes
Is there a minimum order quantity for gloves?
It varies by glove type and factory. For example, simple leather work gloves often allow smaller runs than gloves that need custom latex, printed liners or moulded guards. So tell us the glove type, quantity per size and branding, and we will check which factories can work with your volume before you commit.
How do I get glove samples?
First we share your spec with shortlisted factories; then they make samples, usually in your main size. You review fit, grip and finish, and we also send you our own comments. If changes are needed, a second sample follows. Sample charges and timing vary by factory, so we confirm them in writing.
Can one order include several glove sizes?
Yes. Most glove orders are split across sizes such as S to XXL. However, each factory works to its own size chart, so we compare it with yours before sampling. In addition, we check the size breakdown on the packing list during the final inspection.
Materials and standards
How do I choose between leather and synthetic gloves?
It depends on use and budget. Leather breathes, moulds to the hand and resists heat, which suits welding and heavy work. Synthetic leather, on the other hand, is lighter, more even in colour and easier to wash. We can source both types and help you compare samples side by side.
Do you certify safety gloves to EN 388?
No. ProQ is not a test lab or certification body. Instead, the buyer specifies the standard, and the factory or its lab provides test reports. We then check that those reports match the glove you ordered, and that markings on the glove and packaging agree with them.
Can you match a glove I already sell?
Yes, if you send a physical sample or a detailed spec. We share it with factories that make that glove type, and they produce a counter sample. Then we compare it with your original for materials, size, stitching and grip, so you can approve with confidence.
