ELC A-10 gloves

[Greg Gale]

My jacket's knits are looser than the gloves', so for me it's the other way around. I'm just afraid that one day I might accidentally tear one of the knits with all this pulling and stretching.

 

[Cocker]

I do it the other way round, I stuff the glove knits inside my jacket's knits. No problem at all, even with the watch. We'll see on the long run.

I know it's a bit of a mis-match, but I prefer the USN gloves with my jackets with knits and the A-10 with my shearlings. The USN gloves fit right on top of the jacket-knits while the A-10 knits fits nicely inside the shearling sleeves.

Na not those these ones are genuine Eastman ones I never pasted links so not sure how to.. the ones you’ve linked to are Garcia aviation ones I think they are just copy’s only worth what there advertised for,Ive actually got a similar pair already

That's correct, Art, those are Garcia Aviation POC. I guess the price tag you told us gave me the wrong idea

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

And don't forget to put your boxers on before your jeans if you are struggling to dress yourself at you age Greg

This is a serious First World problem Greg and if that is all that keeps you awake at night, please can we swap lives !

Sweet Art. Jacket looks damn nice too.

Here are my MASH A-10's. Goatskin looks like it's a tad lighter russet color than the Eastman A-10's.

The Mash gloves posted at the start of the thread have the Joseph Eisendrath contract # The ELC have the the very same contract #

 

[Grant]

Apologies if these have been posted here before, but Toy's McCoy's make a decent A-10 reproduction as well. Picked these up second hand recently and thought they were really well made. The OD stitching is a cool detail.

My ELC A-10 gloves. They are at least 15 years old and still work well.
