  2. I have plenty of gloves but rarely use them cause I like to "feel" the work.

    Been known to by these by the 3-piece box. They wear well, fit pretty nicely, and can be repaired if needed. I just go through them in the shop and grounds. The only pair that lasts a good while are the ones in my car. And unlike Red Wing, they do not run $50 - $95.

  5. A tiny drop of superglue at the ends of the back stitching, then rub in some Skidmore's Leather Cream. Makes for a decent set of riding gloves.

    1. I did this, as I cut the fingertips off the gloves for knot tying, nuts&bolts, etc, overdid it, actually.

    1. That and do NOT get them soaked/sweaty, they leech yellow dye when wet inside. I use them for firewood processing mostly.

  7. These are what I use for barbed wire repair. Nothing else protects my hands the way these gloves do.
