Mainly questions about the Parks.
Time has come to get a new pair of gloves. Actually it was time a year ago so it's time to quit embarrassing the wife with my nasty holy gloves. Besides they have become unsafe.
I have a pair of Competition Elkskin Ropers now. They are completely worn out. They never fit quite right. Thumb too short and small diameter and fingers too long and too large diameter. A little bulky. They have however broken in and then out, they are totally worn out now.
I always felt they provided good protection as they were nice an thick.
I'm looking at the Lee Parks "Deer Tours" How thick is the deer skin on the Parks gloves? Are they durable? I see they have an extra pad on the palm which the Ropers do not.
How's the fit compared to the Ropers?
Any other suggestions for "leather" gloves of this type that are protective? No gauntlets.
