Elkskin Roper Gloves, Natural

Product Review (submitted on November 4, 2023):

I bought a pair of the elkskin ropers 12 years ago because I was looking for something better than the leather work gloves that I bought in 3-packs from Costco. I was blown away. Without any breaking in, they were more comfortable than any other glove I had ever worn. They wore like iron and finally got a hole after 12 years of nearly daily riding. I ordered a replacement pair and waited patiently for the backorder to be filled. These aren't the same gloves that they used to be. They'll break in eventually, but they're pretty stiff, uncomfortable, and unwieldy. The cuffs are longer and now snap over my wristwatch, which is uncomfortable. They're stiff and bulky, not supple like the old ones. Overall, I think they'll break in and be serviceable motorcycle gloves, but it's disappointing to rebuy and favorite product only to find that it isn't as good anymore.
