Golf Golf Gloves
The most delicate point of contact linking club and player—that is the glove. Naigai studies the movement of the hands during the swing and the contact with the grip, refining fit, grip, and control down to the finest detail. We assess the character of each material and translate it into designs that follow the shape and motion of the hand. Not merely a glove for gripping, but one that conveys even the sensation at the fingertips to the club, supporting the swing the player envisions. For that one shot, we keep thinking about what a glove can do.
Baseball Baseball (Batting)
In a single swing, every ounce of hard-earned power is transferred. That is why the glove connecting hand and bat must deliver reliable performance. Naigai captures the sequence of gripping, swinging, and impact, designing a balanced blend of grip, fit, and durability. From material selection to pattern and stitching, we pour in the know-how built through years of glove making. Channeling the player’s power into the bat without loss—we support the potential of that swing from the hands.
Horse riding Horse riding
Feeling the horse’s movement through the reins and conveying one’s own intention. In equestrian sport, the hands are a vital point of communication linking rider and horse. Naigai pursues fit and control that preserve that delicate sense, while also considering durability and comfort for holding the reins. We study material properties and hand movement, assembling each function into its optimal form. Gloves that support, from the hands, the moment when rider and horse breathe as one.
Training Training
Grip, pull, press, support. In training, the hands take on every one of these movements. That is why Naigai considers the different loads that come with each discipline and motion, placing the needed functions—grip, fit, durability, and more—where they belong. From material selection to pattern design, we draw on the craft we have built as a glove specialist. So those who train can face their own strength without unnecessary stress—we pursue a pair that supports performance.
ROAD BIKE Road bike
Receiving the feel of the road through the handlebars and operating brakes and shifts in an instant. In road cycling, the hands are a critical interface linking rider and bicycle. Naigai designs with long hours of holding the bars in mind, pursuing fit, control, and comfort. We place the right materials and functions where they are needed, finishing a design that does not hinder delicate control. Over long distances and into that next second—we support the hands of riders who stay focused on the ride.

American football
Catching the ball, securing it, competing with opponents. In intense play, the hands demand instant reaction and sure performance. Naigai understands the different roles of the hands by position and play, designing the needed functions—grip, fit, control, and more. Drawing on material properties, we finish a pair that does not hinder the player’s movement. One catch, one play can change a game. We pursue gloves that answer that moment.
Fishing Fishing
Gripping the rod, working the line, sensing the slightest change transmitted from underwater. In fishing, the hands are also a sensor connecting nature and the angler. Naigai cherishes that delicate feel while pursuing control, fit, and comfort. Considering fishing styles and environments of use, we translate material properties into design. To catch the smallest bite and work the rod as intended—we shape the functions needed at the water’s edge into the form of a glove.
Fencing Fencing
The slightest movement of the fingertips can change the path of the blade. In fencing, where speed and precision intersect, the unity of hand and sword decides performance. Naigai considers the sport-specific movements of hands and fingers, pursuing fit, control, and the functionality the sport requires. Drawing on years of pattern design and material selection know-how, we finish gloves that answer quick, accurate motion. Connecting the athlete’s feel all the way to the tip of the blade—a pair for that one instant.
Fashion Globe Fashion Gloves
Fashion Fashion
Because they wrap the hands, neither beauty alone nor comfort alone is enough. Naigai’s fashion gloves make the most of each material’s expression and texture while pouring in the fit and craftsmanship we have built as a glove maker. The silhouette when worn, the beauty through to the fingertips, and the sense of settling into the hand. With making that compromises on neither function nor design, we create “one piece for the hands” that completes an outfit.
Work Globe Work Gloves
Work Industrial & Work
Working hands move in entirely different ways depending on the site. That is why there is no single glove for every need. Naigai looks closely at the nature of the work and the conditions of use, and considers the functions truly required for that job—control, durability, fit, and more. Combining knowledge of diverse materials with glove-making skill built over years, we design so as not to hinder the worker’s movement. Beyond protecting the hands, we draw out the strength those hands hold. We pursue a pair that works on the job.
