Why am I selling?
Well I have problems with gloves due to me breaking my hands some years ago, I have medium sized fingers but due to the calcification of the bone on the back of my hand the circumference here is more on the large side, so a med glove fits my fingers for length but are tight over the back of my hand, a large glove that fits well over my hand is more often than not to long in the fingers, typically the little finger ends up with ¼ inch loose material at the end which is annoying. I bought these glove as they fit my fingers perfectly but were a little tight around the hand, I’d hoped they’d ‘break in’ and free up but they are so tough and the construction is such I don’t think this will happen anytime soon so rather them gathering dust unused I’ve decided to sell them.
Originally these retailed at an eye watering £159 see link below

As you can see above they are still available from J&S discounted down to £79 so even discounted they aren’t a cheap glove,
I’m after £25 delivered, which is a massive saving on even the discounted price so represent fantastic value for money (if you don’t mind the dubious Toesland branding). To be fair the Toesland stuff isn’t that bad and is quite tasteful consisting of engraved / etched metal panels and ‘52’ branding and the cuffs, I’ve only worn them a handful of times (no pun intended) so they are pretty much as new, the only issue is a very slight nick in the leather on the cuff of the left glove (this isn't visible when the cuff is fastened), I’ve no idea how this as happened , I’m guessing it’s caught on my watch strap whatever the cause it doesn’t effect the function of the glove it’s just a bit annoying as it mars an otherwise perfect glove, anyway I’ve allowed for this when deciding on the asking price.
BTW I can bring them to Wales this weekend if anyone should want to have a look and try them on.
