Sherrise, The Spark Behind the Glove

I grew up in Minnesota, where winter isn’t just a season—it’s a personality trait. I loved bonfires, tailgates, and snowy nights with friends, but cold hands had a way of cutting the fun short. Holding a drink in bulky gloves meant spills, numb fingers, and checking out of the moment when I wanted to be all in.

One night, someone said, “Why not take it up the wrist?” That little comment lit the spark. I didn’t set out to reinvent gloves—but I knew there had to be a better way to keep people warm, connected, and present.

So I started sewing. Stitch by stitch, idea by idea, the Giddyup Glove™ was born—a mitten that keeps your hand cozy and holds your drink steady. It was practical, a little cheeky, and unlike anything else out there.

Today, Giddyup Gear is about more than just gloves. It’s about sparking joy, confidence, and connection in the everyday moments we don’t want to miss. Whether you’re around a fire, at the game, or on an RV adventure, I want you to feel comfortable, playful, and fully in the moment.

This is my story—but really, it’s about you. Because comfort is the gateway, and connection is the point.

Top Five Frequently asked questions

Does it fit hot and cold drinks?

Yes. Works with most cups, cans, and bottles.

Can I use it for coffee?

Absolutely. Protects your hand from heat while keeping drinks warm longer.

Left or right hand?

Either! The Giddyup Glove™ is designed to work on either hand, so you can sip comfortably no matter your grip.

Where are your products manufactured?

Every Giddyup Glove™ is designed and sewn in Bend, Oregon in a tiny little studio. We currently make our gloves in small batches locally—so you’re getting a product crafted with care, not churned out on an assembly line. As we grow, we’ll continue to scale production thoughtfully while keeping design oversight here at home.

Can I throw it in the washing machine?

While the lining technically says “dry clean only,” we’ve tossed ours in the wash plenty of times and they’ve come out just fine. Gentle cycle, cold water, air dry—and your glove will stay in top shape.
