Summary
Specialized profession that decorates the surface of gloves with patterns or logos using embroidery machines or by hand.
Description
Glove embroiderers apply patterns or letters to leather or fabric gloves using machine embroidery or hand embroidery based on specified designs. They read design data, select threads and materials, operate machines, and maintain high precision with fine stitches. In addition to maintaining uniform quality in mass production lines, they handle custom orders individually, and are responsible for understanding material properties, machine maintenance, and quality inspection.
Future Outlook
While mass production efficiency will improve with the spread of automatic embroidery machines, demand for hand embroidery for high-value-added and custom orders is expected to remain stable and expand.
