About ME
I’m a one person operation and getting to know me is, in turn, getting to know Digits.
Growing up, my family owned a lumber yard in a small town in Wisconsin. My childhood was spent causing trouble in aisles of tools.
When I was 14, my first job was at Ace Hardware. I wasn’t of legal age to work so they paid me under the table to cut keys.
I’ve been a landscaper, pressure washer, fence builder, bike mechanic and welder. The common link with everything was always work gloves.
In 2019, I was building a motorcycle from scratch and I got fed up with not being able to find a good fitting, good quality, kickass work glove.
I have to be scrappy to compete with the massive companies around me but Digits Workwear will always be based around a quality product with above any beyond customer support.
Protect Your Digits.
Digits Workwear's
Progression
Original Design
The original leather glove design from Digits Workwear is a testament to craftsmanship and functionality. Its ergonomic fit and reinforced stitching ensure both comfort and durability, while premium leather provides a balance of flexibility and protection. The design reflects a deep understanding of the demands faced by hardworking individuals, emphasizing grip and wear resistance in high-stress areas.
Thoughtful engineering that defines Digits Workwear’s commitment to quality. This glove isn't just a tool—it's a symbol of reliability and innovation for professionals.
First Glove
If you’ve been following the brand for years, you’ll remember the days when Digits Workwear was called Later Traitor. The first glove design under the Later Traitor name set the foundation for what the company is known for today—tough, reliable, and built for the hardest jobs. That original glove featured the same dedication to craftsmanship, with high-quality leather and reinforced stitching that could stand up to daily wear and tear.
Even back then, the glove embodied the brand’s core values of durability and innovation, laying the groundwork for the evolution into Digits Workwear. The blueprint-inspired design from that era remains an iconic reminder of how it all began.
New Gloves
The newest gloves from Digits Workwear represent the culmination of years of experience, innovation, and customer feedback. Every lesson learned along the way—every stitch, material choice, and ergonomic adjustment—has shaped this latest design into the best glove yet. These gloves combine cutting-edge materials with time-tested durability, offering unparalleled comfort and protection. Whether it’s the improved fit, enhanced grip, or increased resilience, every feature is a reflection of Digits Workwear’s commitment to excellence. This evolution showcases not only how far the brand has come but also its dedication to providing gloves that meet the demands of hardworking individuals everywhere.
I make gloves that I want to wear.
