Ansell ProjeX 97-978 Leather Driver Glove, Medium (Pack of 1 Pair)

I got these gloves on a lightening deal for a few dollars off regular price. I like them.They are snug, yet comfortable and allow pretty good dexterity for using buttons etc in the car. I do not have any black rubbing off like someone else mentioned.It is nice to have something comfortable and good looking to keep my hands warm when the steering wheel is so cold on the winter mornings!

The leather on these gloves is very soft and springy, which is great for driving, but may be a tad delicate for heavier everyday wear. The workmanship is decent, and the grade of leather is pretty good, too. They aren't very warm (being driving gloves, they don't have insulation), but they do keep the wind out on chilly days. I've got a couple complaints, though. First, I wear a size large glove (8.5" palm circumference), and these gloves are very tight for a large. I get indentations on the top of my hand from the seams if I wear them for more than 10 minutes. Being leather, they will loosen up, but there is so much stitching involved (good for durability) that there isn't a lot of budge. I have put Lexol conditioner on these several times now, and it's made them more supple. A big improvement. The second complaint would be that there is a lot of extra material on the seams inside the fingers of the gloves. I had to turn the gloves inside out and trim off the excess leather at the seams near the fingertips, because it felt like I had a good centimeter of bundled leather between my skin and the outside of the glove (very bad for feedback/finesse in a glove that's made for control). With that said, I like these gloves, and I'm sure they'll hold up for a good while. If you can look past the sizing (they're about a 1/2 size too small) and the extra stitching (easily trimmed off), you'll enjoy these gloves immensely. These gloves are so close to perfect, it's a shame they have a few issues.

These are the first gloves I've loved -- they are very comfortable. I almost look forward to winter. They fit far better than any other set of gloves I've had.As mentioned in the title, I am typing this review with the gloves on. Imagine I have my hands out, 12345 67890. The fit is near perfect for 345 678. The Pinky and Ring fingers are a bit loose, at least for precision work like typing, for my hands. Finger 9 is the worst fitting. That could just be my hands, but I'm managing okay with those four fingers being inactive for the moment. Also, I would have preferred about another inch or two on the wrist.I do like how they feel while driving -- it's been warm lately, but these gloves don't seem to get too hot -- the spandex between the fingers seems to help. If I ever get a bespoke pair of gloves, these will be a good starting point. Now, typing with gloves on, i am finding that i'm needing to use the backspace key more than usual, so for my next sentence, i will not use the backspace or other corrections. Uneditted, uncorrescted sentence now, seeing just how much these gloves are truly messing wth my typng. That turned out better than i expected -- maybe I'm just getting used to having them on. I'm even managing the scroll wheel okay.I would not recommend typing with heavier gloves on. I'd really like to have a set of gloves like Spiderman had in his latest movie, where he was typing on a capacitive screen tinyphone with gloves on, which has to be a superpower. For reasonably precision work in cold weather, though, or basic driving, I can highly recommend these deerskin gloves. My border collie loves them, too.

I need These, I a driving glove for long drives because the steering wheel in my car is just too hard for hours on end. But, a driving glove needs to be skived very thin. The deer skin used is well finished, but it's too thick to work well as a driving glove unless you are driving a tractor or a crane.

I purchased these gloves, literally, to keep in my car for driving when needed in winter. For that purpose, they are ideal. They are not lined, however, so they are NOT very warm. On a few of the coldest mornings this winter, I did wish they had some sort of lining, but they warmed to my body heat pretty quickly. They seem well made & sturdy. A good deal for the price.

Not bad for the price I suppose. The index finger on both gloves is twisted and doesn't exactly fit right. But whatever. They were cheap and it is deerskin.

The deer skin gloves I ordered for my husband were not only quickly shipped but wonderful quality. They were a perfect fit, the hide used for this makes them very soft to the touch. The insides are soft as well. They are warm but thin enough he can use them on the motorcycle on cool days and keep his hands warm. I would highly recommend them.

These gloves fit ok for me in XL as size but that is where anything positive ended for me.These do not have any lining at all and has the seams on the insides of the gloves which means that they are going to be both uncomfortable and not provide warmth with the lack of insulation.They would make horrible "driving gloves". There are specific driving gloves for those that wish to wear them which, depending upon ones preference and environmental conditions can find some that breathe or have linings etc. These are not them.They are also horrible motorcycle riding gloves. Again they would be both uncomfortable and also offer no protection such as most motorcycle riding gloves offer either warm or cold riding gloves. There are tons of great bike gloves, don't use these.These will protect your hands from damage if handling something such as cargo but that is the only use I could find for these.So they are made of decent leather and sizing seems to be accurate but beyond that the lack of comfort or insulation makes them unusable for me.

thanks
