Stylish and practical urban photo gloves with excellent customer service
I ordered the Djuke gloves because I wanted a glove that did double duty: an everyday glove for around town and a photography glove. The Djuke gloves meet both my needs.
Features-wise, they work great. The magnets are strong enough to keep the finger caps out of the way. The capacitance touch also works well for using a phone or my car’s touchscreen (works on my camera’s touchscreen too, but the LCD buttons are too small to select). The merino wool keeps my hands warm down to about 25 degrees Fahrenheit/4 degrees Celsius, even with the finger caps off while I’m shooting (on windier or colder days, the caps stay off just long enough for the shot). The leather feels soft out of the box; this allows for a lot of flexibility in the glove. I keep the cuffs at the wider setting, making it easier for me to pull the gloves on and off. I’m able to use these with a Peak Design Clutch attached to my camera. By the way, I’m not a fan of the cold, and the Djuke gloves keep my hands warm while doing urban, street, and nature photography.
I noticed that the gloves feel slick when driving; my steering wheel is also leather-wrapped. A recent application of leather conditioner seemed to help add some tackiness, but I’m not sure if this is the glove or the steering wheel. This has not been an issue when using the gloves for photography, though.
I initially ordered a pair in XL, based on the same size Markhof V2 that I purchased the prior year. The Djuke XL were just a bit tight, so I exchanged them for XXL right before Christmas (Dec 23). Denisa was absolutely fantastic and helpful throughout the entire exchange process. I had the new gloves on Dec 30, during the busiest shipping time of the year. Denisa demonstrated first class customer service!

Amazingly Warm!
I decided to "upgrade" to the Alta Mitt before a trip to Yellowstone. Just like the ad states, they are like a sleeping bag for your hands. They were very warm, even on subzero days. I wish I would have bought these years ago.
