While attending IML in America earlier this year I lost one of my vintage motorcycle gauntlet gloves somewhere while walking around the markets. I was suitable disappointed to be left with one, and even after lots of asking around and searching the missing glove never surfaced.
Fast forward almost half a year and my boy in training presented me with a new pair in a wonderful gift. He had found a pair on Ebay in America that were in very bad condition and has lovingly restored them with some bootblacking into an amazing pair of gloves.
They are wonderfully snug and have a vintage leather smell to them still, mixed with the smell of the new conditioner and dye. I’m extremely honoured and proud to have them to wear. Thank you 13.
