Protective Gear by Bearpaw Products
Our products are manufactured in Pakistan (Karachi). Our partner in Karachi places great emphasis on consistent quality and good working conditions for employees. Production staff work 8-hour shifts with sufficient breaks. Additionally, our partner provides insurance coverage for employees and their families, ensuring secure incomes through employment. The local wages are three times higher than the regional average, highlighting our commitment to fair employment practices. These aspects, often taken for granted elsewhere, are exceptional in Pakistan, where low job security, low wages, and lack of worker rights prevail. Each employee has been carefully selected for their expertise, reflecting in the high-quality craftsmanship, consistent quality, and elegant appearance of our products.

Furthermore, our partner holds "B Corp" and "BSCI" certifications! "B Corp" is an international certification that recognizes companies for their social and environmental impacts by the non-profit organization "B Lab". The goal of "BSCI" is to improve working conditions worldwide, adhering to a specific code of conduct within the supply chain.

Each of our products is handmade. Whether it's a archery glove, armguard, or quiver, there's a person behind each product performing their work with love and passion. Our partner's team of 30 to 40 employees is dedicated to our products, from sample making to the final product. Some employees have been with us for up to 35 years, mastering their craft.

Materials for Our Protective Gear
We place special emphasis on selecting and sourcing materials for our leather and textile products. The right use of materials ensures sustainability and top-quality results. To introduce sustainable, high-quality, and well-thought-out products to the market, we exclusively use "REACH-compliant" materials. Products and articles are considered REACH-compliant if they meet all conditions of the EU chemicals regulation. We strive to use as many natural materials as possible. For example, most of our quivers are lined with leather rather than synthetic materials. All our materials are sourced locally, considering short transportation routes. The seams of our products are sewn with "German Gütermann thread", known for its exceptional durability.

Archery Gloves for Beginners
For beginners in archery, choosing archery gloves made from soft leather or textile is crucial. These materials offer several advantages: they are comfortable to wear, provide adequate protection, and allow archers to develop a good feel for the bowstring. Developing a good sense of the bowstring early on is important for improving technique and achieving more precise shots.

Recommended models for beginners include the "Dynamic" and "Easy". These gloves are specifically designed for beginners, offering necessary comfort and protection without compromising mobility or sensation. Soft leather or textile conforms to the shape of the hand, enabling natural handling of the bowstring.

Archery Gloves for Experienced Archers
Experienced archers often have specific requirements for their archery gloves. Besides a good fit and reliable protection, thicker and more robust materials are helpful for higher draw weights. Thick leather provides the necessary protection against the forces exerted on the fingers at higher draw weights, preventing injuries.

Recommended models for advanced archers include the "Dark" (made from buffalo leather) and the "DOA" (made from deer leather). These gloves are crafted from high-quality thick leather, ensuring durability even with intensive use.

Archery Gloves for Children and Youth
Children and adolescents starting archery should also use soft and supple archery gloves. These gloves protect young archers from injuries while allowing them to develop a good sense of the bowstring and shooting technique. An example of a suitable model is the "Easy", specifically designed for young archers or beginners.

However, it may also be beneficial for children to initially shoot without archery gloves using light draw weights. This allows them to develop a direct feel for the bowstring and improve their technique. Once they start using higher draw weights or experience discomfort in their fingers, they should definitely wear archery gloves to prevent injuries.

• Material: Archery gloves made from leather or textile are durable and offer good protection. Soft leather is particularly suitable for beginners and young archers, while thick leather is recommended for higher draw weights and experienced archers.
• Fit: The glove should fit well to ensure optimal protection and comfort. A glove that is too tight can restrict mobility, whereas one that is too loose may not provide adequate protection.
• Sensation: A good archery glove allows the archer to maintain a good feel for the bowstring. This is crucial for precise shots and continuous improvement of shooting technique.

Conclusion on Archery Gloves
The choice of the right archery glove depends on the archer's experience level, bow draw weight, and individual needs. Soft materials are ideal for beginners, while experienced archers should opt for thick, durable leather. Children and adolescents benefit from soft gloves but can also start without them to develop a better feel for the bowstring. Archery gloves significantly contribute to safety and performance in archery and are therefore indispensable.
