Gloves

[lascaux]

I got a pair of Dent's Clifton unlined Peccary gloves that are a tad too big. Any way to shrink them? The thumbs are a little long and the fit around the wrists are loose.

I picked them up for $50 on ebay, originally $300ish so don't mind experimenting

Any suggestions?

Grifter sell a range of made in the USA gloves. They're designed for motorcycling, though I prefer my gear to be more technical.

I like the fabric and leather designs they offer.

Just got me some blue gloves form Churchill. More of a royal blue than dark Navy blue.

Grifter gloves are nice, just preworn, which is a required taste. I rather out the age in most of my gear.

Does anyone have a source for horsehide gloves – like riding style unlined gloves...

Like them…

Thanks folks - got my horsehide gloves in the mail today. Wow! These are one seriously nice pair of gloves. I'm sure they'll soften up and look even better with use and some war marks

Hey everyone. I recently lost on of my gloves I bought like 8 years ago and am a little devastated, but that does allow for getting a new pair. I had some cashmere lined leather gloves that I can't even remember the brand or where I purchased (they even might have been a gift). Anyways I need something good for the winter for driving and walking around.  I know there are a few links in here with some places to look. But what I'd like to ask the stubborn crew is what exactly to look for in quality.  I want these to last just as long if possible. Thanks in advance for all your help!

Hestra gloves all the way

[Fadez]

Thanks guys. Definitely looking into them.  The Hestra dress ones off the bat look the sharpest to me. But I'm hellbent on getting the perfect pair.

My favorite leather gloves….ranging from Churchill, Pratt & Hart, Loser Machine and Tough Gloves

Like your gloves a lot, @Jordonf9, especially the fact that they are all so short and leave the wrist free. Cool. Are they lined or unlined? Impressive palette of colours, too!

[Jordonf9]

All unlined. I use them for daily wear all year and on the bike mostly. All are deer skin(different weights) except for one that is sheepskin and one that is elkskin. I also have a pair of black that is really effective in this low 30 weather. Damascus is the brand, short cut.

I want to see who would take leather I sent them and make me gloves, I think Churchill will. I want some of the Vicenza veg tanned leather to be made into short wrist glove, they would age BEAUTIFULLY! Horsehide as well

[Aetas]

That´s a really impressive collection! What about some deerskin?

[Jordonf9]

5 of the gloves are deerskin
1 is elk
1 is….I think sheep and is ULTRA thing and grippy. Can use a smartphone like no problem and feel everything with them on.

Thinking about getting some leather gloves. Any recommendations?

I was looking at some of the Grifter ones.

The three pairs on the left, fight like another layer of skin. Nice, tight and I love them! The other ones are just a little looser than them, but still fit beautifully. They use thicker deerskin than the ones on the left.
