Just bought some Aero Roper Gloves!

[seagiant]

Hi,
        Well, after a LOT of surfing on the WEB just pulled the trigger on these Elkskin gloves!

I guess you get to a point where you have to just go for it!

I measured a "10" size and that is what I ordered!

We will see and I will report on the fit when I get them.

Hopefully no more than a week!

Hi,
      Ok with some more digging I found the Company that supposedly made the work "Roper" glove that started it for Aerostitch!

Here is a link and you will notice they carry a few like the Aero Roper.

They also have a Kangaroo "driving glove" that looks nice and seems light weight!

Hi,
        Well I reciever my gloves today! :great:

For anyone interested I measured a "10" size and did as I was told and ordered a "10" size, with no second guessing!

The gloves fit me perfect and I'm very happy! :beerchug:

Even the finger length is great and have to admit these could be called "custom"? ;D

Maybe I was lucky, but these are great, soft feeling, but tough and excellent construction! >

You are correct! Geier makes the gloves. I bought mine at the local farm and ranch supply store. Rode the last half of the season with them and they ARE great gloves - something about riding in elk skin...

Hi,
      Yea, color me impressed! :great:

To speed up the break-in, I washed mine with mild soap.

I was also curious about the "dye bleed" which was hardly any at all! :beerchug:

A lot less than my old Olympia gloves anyway!

I will break these in right, running over to Daytona on the 12th! ;D > > >

I have had a pair for almost 10 years.  They are my primary not too hot or not too cold glove.
