American Made Deerskin and Leather Gloves 25% off ....

I also received the Gauntlet Deerskin gloves.
Very nice and if they last 2 1/2 to 3 yrs they will be great especially at the sale price. They certainly look to have the potential to go the distance. Time will tell.
Never had a pair of good deerskin gloves last longer than 3 years. I even made a pair from some “brain tanned deerskin” that was GREAT but thin so they only lasted 2 years. Should have doubled the palms on those. Only got 2 1/2 good years out of Lee Parks gloves.
I’m very pleased. Thanks to the OP for posting this companies product.

Never heard of Leather Honey but will check it out. Thanks for the tip
It was recommended by the glove maker. I found it at Advance Auto parts for $18.99 - 20% if you use the code "CARE" at checkout.

I thought Leather Honey was a product that made a taste of the strap more palatable
Who knew that it’s a person working the Fargo, Vegas Circuit! (I say person because on the Vegas to Fargo Circuit you never know maybe she maybe not )
Did a search for Leather Honey and got this ??

After reading the positive feedback here and also knowing the 25% emergency discount had expired I reached out to Jake at Sullivan and he has developed a 10% discount count for all BMW Riders. You can just enter BMW10 at checkout.
He is truly appreciative of the support from the BMW riders!

Talked to the owner this morning. Ordered the thermlo deeskin guantlet gloves in tan. Very accommodating as others have mentioned. He's VERY aware of this site and appreciates our business. I measured a 9 on their chart, but he recommended the 8 in deeskin, so ordered what he recommended as he also is a 9 but wears an 8, said it would fit perfect.

Got the thermlow gauntlet deerskin gloves this morning. Excellent execution, the thumb and little finger are a tad longer than my fingers so I'll soak them up to the start of the gauntlet and ride till they dry tomorrow morning.

If they did, they would no longer be made 2.5-3 ounce leather, they'd have to be thicker. Aerostich makes these, but they are a lot thicker. I'd not prefer the deerskin gloves be any thicker than they are myself. But here's an option if you must have extra protection https://www.aerostich.com/luxury-deerskin-summer-gloves.html

I would shoot Jake Peterson a note and if they don't have what you are needing he may very well be able to make them. They do make a glove with addition layer in the palm.
