New custom gloves
« on: September 09, 2014, 12:54:43 AM »

Hello all,

SO my brother is having a birthday and has set me the task of creating him some new gloves for him to use this season.
SO after listening to what he wants in a glove, and talking with my agent we have come up with this



Most will know the design, it is a paint drawing that is very poor but is the easiest way to show what it will look like if you dont have appropriate software.
In essence, they will be entirely white except for the logo in the middle.
They will contain top notch protection for the fingers and thumb.

after showing the design to my club mates last night, many were impressed and asked me to order a pair or 2 in some cases.

I am a sucker for all white gloves as is my brother and most of my club.

Cant wait to see the end product in a few weeks

Was offered a wide variety of palms and decided to go with a treated calf palm.
A calf leather palm which has been treated with a bio degradable solution.
Which offers supple leather with maximum grip

Was there a Pittards option of palm?
And I think I may regret this question.........but how much are these gloves costing you?

Only problem with stockist is the crazy postage charges, they were wanting 70 AUD for a set of gloves.

Pittards was an option hosk, but i went with my agents suggestion of supple leather.

Price per pair is $23.50 USD

would not assume they will be in need of any modifications mate, probably wouldnt be practical to have wheels on gloves. Pads possibly, but not gloves

**UPDATE**

Just got off the blower with my agent. He has reduced the price of the gloves to $23.00 a pair and has started production.

Enjoy the $0.50 price reduction, will there be a reduction in quality to reflect this?

Looking forward to the glove modification thread now  ;)

Odds on these being called the XGloves with PalmX Protection and Poron X-not-RD inside?

Only kidding  ;) hopefully they'll come as you've ordered for your brother!

What's with the fingertip flap things? Guessing they're just not completed yet?
