Well, he is selling them for $39 shipped, so that's not too bad...but not great.

Yeah, I grabbed a pair on Ebay last week too, so the price drop comes just in time to not make a difference. (IMG:http://forum.bikerscout.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Oh, well.

I know and trust this guy bigtime. If you have a set of FX Stormtrooper armor, you have worked with him before. No website, thats why he asked me to post here. Chris |

Mine just arrived and I have to say WOW! I was worried about them being a little large as I usually buy small and rip the liners out to keep cool then they fit perfectly. These I got in Medium and they come already without the liners and fit perfectly. Nice, smooth and comfortable. 100% worth every cent.

Gotta agree with Troy, my Large's just arrived this afternoon and they fit MUCH better than the mediums did! Totally worth it, virtually no modifications required. My only concern is the stiffness of the leather in the fingers, but I'm sure there are ways to "work in" the leather so it's more flexible or something.
IMHO these beat the tar out of the JCW's. |

Hey guys and gals,
I want a pair of these gloves, but I'm concerned about the size of the golves. (IMG:http://forum.bikerscout.net/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) My question is I wear a large in gloves, but I heard these ran larger than normal, what size should I get a large or a medium? I would aprreciate any help. Thanks. (IMG:http://forum.bikerscout.net/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Get a Large. I have big carpenter hands too, and I also heard that they ran large, so I ordered a Medium. BIG mistake, horrible fit. If your hands are at all bigger than other people's, go Large.
Edit: My Larges just arrived today and they fit wonderfully. |

Well I just ordered a pair of mediums, being [as tony put it] bloody girly handed, much like my GML apparently.
The guy is quick with comms and the gloves themselves look to be exceptionally good; postage is fast too so I'm looking forward to getting my hands on/in them as this is the last part of my whole armour/costume. |

Hmm, I PM'ed the guy from eBay, not knowing of this thread. He asked if I was a BSN member, and then offered the lower price!

Hey guys, Ladyghst surprised me the other day and gave me a pair of these gloves. I think they are awsome but need three things changed on them. The suede on the palm and the stiching on the guantlet needs to be fixed. As does the suede on the thumb, it needs to have an egg shaped piece of suede on it with a single stich around it with the V stiching on it too. Other then this they are awsome and feel great on. The fingers flex very well when wearing them once these three small things are fixed these will be the best gloves you can get for your scout uniform next to finding the real gloves.
OK, I just noticed one more then the gloves don't have that I think they should have. This would be a satin liner inside so after wearing them for a few hours your finger's won't be black from wearing them. A liner will keep the dye from come off onto your fingers. If they can fix these few things, I would have to say that they will have a 99% screen accurate looking gloves for us to wear. If they do fix these. I can tell you I WILL buy another pair from them. We to go guys on the gloves EXCELLENT work, the best gloves I have seen yet. |
