So, I figured I would update this thread.
I ended up purchasing a pair of ropers as well as a pair of #466, Tan, Gauntleted ELK / Deerskin goves

I road with the gauntleted gloves today I they felt GREAT! They are also a lot better made than the Deerskin only gloves. They have a wrist strap as well as a TF2 memory foam sewn across the knuckles. They also have an extra layer stitched into the palm of the hand.
They feel much more secure when compared to the ropers.
For what it's worth....they appear to be EXACTLY the same material (as well as stitch pattern and thickness) as the original ropers.
I think I have found a good touring alternative to my Teknic race gloves.....
