I just received a package from Ivybridge These really are the gloves I've always dreamed about. I hope they're gonna last decades, because I can't cough up so much dinero for gloves anytime soon

Was gonna say bit to expensive for me considering the use they would get but if like u I took to the sky’s no doubt about it I’d be including them they do look the nuts.. plus I’d be looking to spend even more replacing the knits to a rust colour so best I swerve till I have a winner and a lot of spare ££££

 

[Carl]

Mine have worn in nicely!

If someone is prepared to pay for something then it must be a good price or the item wouldn't sell and the price would drop or the item would no longer be made - forcing up the price for second hand.

All about where your interests lie my friend

 

[Carl]

They are quality ! No denying it !

 

[Officer Dibley]

I said i would. And i did. Very nice !
Large is a touch snug for my 9 1/2 hands but i know they'll give a little as they wear and get wet. And the finger length is perfect.
I bet they won't look like this in 3 months !

 

[Smithy]

They look really great OD. I've got the MASH ones which I'm pretty sure are the same as the ELC ones. Only just got mine in June and waiting for the temperature to tank so I can wear them.

 

[Cocker]

They are! MASH is producing the gloves for ELC. Those are one of the best piece of garment I ever bought, spent a lot of time with them last winter!

@Officer Dibley , indeed, they will relax! Mine were pretty tight too, the first couple days, but they quickly formed to my hand and soon fitted me like a pair of, well... gloves!

 

[Smithy]

Aaah that figures. I'd been thinking the ELC ones look exactly the same as the MASH jobs and heard a rumour they were the same.

Bloody great gloves, can't wait for winter.

 

[Silver Surfer]

got my pair from mash some years ago, and wear em every winter. they hold up well, but the knit is beginning to come apart from the leather at the inside tab. expected, i reckon as that is where i tug em on. a snug fit is ok, as just as ya might think, with wear and rain, and snow, they will stretch some. even at the current elc prices, ya get a lotta bang for the buck. and,,,they are perfect for wearing with a b-3.

 

[jeremiah]

When they make speedos I will get a pair.

what's the QM spec order no. for those?

 

[jeremiah]

guess I would need to get two of the meatball AAF stamps on my pair though eh?

and that I do not want to see.

 

[Greg Gale]

There is one thing I'll have to get used to: My A-2 has knit cuffs. The gloves have knits too. Plus there is a watch on my left wrist. All these seem to conflict with each other a bit. What's the consensus, what goes above/ below what? It's a bit tricky to put them on too.

 

[Smithy]

Jacket first, gloves on after and over the jacket knits. Don't know if that's right but that's how I do it.
