Where can I get Twins Synthetic Leather Gloves - Or any good synthetic leather glove!

sizzv3 · 10-14-2006, 03:55 PM

According to the twins website, their non-fancy gloves are available per-request as synthetic leather. However, this leads me to believe that they are quite rare. I've been searching on google and these forum for an hour for major brands (fairtex, twins, windy) but I can't find any good synthetic leather gloves anywhere!

If anyone knows where I can get a really good pair of synthetic leather thai gloves and bag gloves, I'd love you long time

.

Edit: The best I could come up with so far are the Everlast Synthetic MT gloves, and the CSI super soft gloves. I'd really prefer hook and loop gloves, too!

It looks like I might have to end up getting these http://www.fittofight.co.uk/ishop/1024/shopscr100.html

Why would you want synthetic leather???????? Leather is the way to go. It will generally last longer and is breathable so your gloves (with the addition of glove dogs) wont smell like a *@$#%&% you get the idea.

Ah I knew this would come up. I' m a vegetarian and can't stand the though of using anything that's leather

Unfortunately all twins fancy gloves are made with real leather. They have some awesome designs though.. I guess there isn't much demand for vegetarian-friendly gloves!

do you guys/gals not wear like leather footwear also? not being a as%, just wondering

To be honest, I do wear leather shoes (and feel super guilty about it), but that is the only non-vegetarian thing I own. I even use fucking vegetarian soap. The leather shoes will be phased out next time I buy shoes.

Most vegetarian I know aren't too anal about non-vegetarian things as long as there's no meat in their food. Vegans tend to be more hardcore about it.

Edit: If anyone is interested in how much every day stuff unnecessarily uses dead animals ask and I will tell

I know a few vegetarians who will eat meat, wear leather, and hunt. They just don't like the taste of most meats.
