The real ones were weathered, look at this pic of the right glove, it has some yellow tones on the white. It can also be seen on other pics:

I justed misted lightly with my airbrush. Some black, and also going to add ome earthtones as well.
I didn't really weather mine. After two troops they got so dirty I had to wash them. They look good now with a little wear and tear from trooping.![]()
GOd sakes man! You're gloves got dity that fast? Where were you trooping? Dagobah? HahAhA
Shake hands with a hundred kids and you'll see.Plus there is always food and snacks at troops to get on them as well.

Misting rattle can spray paint from a foot out...
Shaking hands with kids weathers them enough.
There isn't a single item on the Fett costume that doesn't look weathered and used. As a point in fact, the whole idea of 'worn and used' was the basis for the aesthetic for Star Wars. Lucas wanted the SW world to look lived-in. That is a complicated way of saying yes -- weather those puppies -- either with chocolate cupcakes like cojakeor fuller's earth like ILM-- but, yes, weather them. Weather everything.
