Those look really nice! I've always baulked at the price of the Eastman / BR gloves. Picked up a no-name repro pair on eBay for a fraction of the price a couple of years ago. No doubt much less accurate as repros, but as a decent pair of gloves they've stood up nicely to the last couple of Winters. They live in the pocket of my B3. I think they're goat. Thin, but durable. Good in all but the worst of the cold - during Second Winter this week I have been wearing the Irvin a lot, and mostly my Sheepskin gloves. Bulkier and clumsier, but they'll handle the worst of the cold better. Fantasising about the Summer weather when I can break out the cotton gloves again...

Snap out of it. Your fantasy is over. Summer has been cancelled, now put those cotton gloves away.

Nice newspaper!....perfect for a "nuclear winter".

:)

Quite a variation in shades of brown on the A-10 (even from the same manufacturer).

For another thread: I'm now looking at unlined peccary gloves for cool weather FQHH jackets. Like the contrast.
