Target once again has navy blue gloves in the WOMENS section... I picked up a second pair just in case my first ever bites it.
Good for anyone needing blue gloves.
Thanks,
Tony

Thanks for the tip. I may pick up a pair as backup.
Not sure if they have them online or not, but I got mine in the store... they had a strap on the wrist (much like the ones last year) and it is easily cut off... I also heard cutting out the liner makes it fit looser for bigger hands.
The pictures below are to compare to my old ones (the new ones are an inch or two longer) and the color under better lighting.
Your welcome Arturo... you can also kinda see the armor you made right over my thumb in the background sitting on yellow foam board![]()
thanks for the tip. I passed by target earlier and it looks like they haven't put out much cold weather stuff yet but I'll definitely keep a lookout for a set
If anyone wants me to pick them up and ship them at actual costs, just let me know and I'll see what I can do... they have s/m and l/xl sizes
um im guessing medium, do you have any idea of meausrments? I know my previous gloves were 8.5
I would guess probably like me and you would wear a size L/XL... I can see what shipping would be and get a set to you once I get the total cost.
EDIT: USPS.com says Int'l Small Flat Rate box is like 13 bucks to ship... I can very well bet that the gloves would fit in a small box no problemo.
They are 17.99 + 7% sales tax + 13.00 shipping...
I think $33 USD would cover it and most of the paypal fee.
Let me know and I'll pick them up on my way home tonight and ship them Monday.
I'll pm you my pp account
thanks,
me 2... do you have an item number, or name? if i can't find them at my local target, i'll be sending you a PM
hmmm, Ohio may be getting there stuff out earlier than the others then... I'd say within the next month or so all of them will be having them.
If anyone needs me to pick them up PM me.
Thanks guys,
Nice find indeed Tony.![]()

Our Target just stocked them a couple of days ago.
good to hear they are getting them elsewhere too![]()
are you taking orders for these if so i would like to have yo uget a pair for me to
I can pick up a pair for anyone who wants one... just PM me and PP me and I'll get them out to you.... Where are you located?
I got the PM's/PP's and will be doing a target run tonight so I should be able to get them shipped tomorrow via USPS flat rate boxes (god I love these for calculating shipping).
Thanks,
Tony
picked up a pair today... great!!
Hey Tony,
Flat rate boxes are great if you're shipping internationally or if the weight of the package is heavy and if the item in the box is able to fit. In this case USPS don't charge you anything else extra.
It might be a bit costly though if you're just shipping within the U.S. and if it's just a pair of gloves in small box.
I would probably go with something like this to cut down on cost via USPS priority.or maybe smaller...
Just a thought.

For those interested... it would be $34 shipped International and $26 domestic US (I miscalculated the Paypal fees in the above post).
I can get them from my local Target(s), for as long as they have stock, and get them shipped out ASAP
Thanks,
Tony
Tony hi.Thanks for the help!I just picked up my back-up pair of gloves from Target after work today they only had 4 pairs of L/XL left.My original pair of gloves came straight from Italy! When I tried the L/XL on I could barely get my left hand in it let alone my right and I don't have the biggest hands in the world.So I did what was suggested by taking out the liner.Much better!!!Since the gloves are real leather they will stretch a little.I'm adding some pictures of the gloves ,store tag,upc,liner taken out and the buckel/strap taken off,and a measurement of my hand to help out the rest of you interested in figuring what size of gloves to get from Tony.Hope this helps,Jeff

I knew somebody would post it
Thanks Jeff!
just an FYI.. these are WOMENS gloves, so the sizes run small. ive got pretty average sized hands (imho), and i got the L/XL gloves and they are very TIGHT... gotta stretch them out.
i highly recommend getting the larger sizes - women's gloves sizes are different than men's.. like shoe sizes!!!!!
definitely running down to my Target to see if I can fin these babies!!! Perfect find!!!
Yeah they are tight, but they do stretch... I didn't remove the liner and my old ones are really stretched and fit very comfy... gotta stretch these ones now![]()
Nice find man!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need ones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the find Tony !
I bought a pair from Target last year, this style is a little different this year. They are a little and I mean a little larger than last year's model.
I used a trick I found online somewhere on my other pair. Put a latex glove inside the leather glove, fill it with water, tie it off with a zip-strip. Tape the wrist end shut, and throw it in the freezer. When the ice expands, it stretches the gloves. Be careful not to overfill with water, as it might bust the seams. I did this with the pair I bought last year, and it worked like a charm!
Thanks again Tony.

hey ScottyK, that is a great idea, never thought of that, lol.
Got my gloves today and they´re great..thanx for everything!!![]()
Awesome!!! Picked up a pair, the first part of my costume is finished!![]()
Thanks for the tip![]()
No problem... glad to help a fellow Jango out![]()
Now that xmas shopping is upon us, I figured I could find these online...nope
I really don't want to go out on black friday.
I went by target yesterday and saw these gloves. I tried on the L/XL and they fit pretty tight. I am going back today to buy them. After I cut out the liner they should fit more comfortably and they won't be as hot. In Texas that makes a big difference. This will be the first part of my Jango costume. How could I pass it up though...cheap and readily available.
And I suggest wearing them a lot to break them in... I did yard work wearing them and afterwards they fit great; and they were weathered![]()
Ok I have got them all stripped down and they feel great. The one thing that bothers me a little is the loose fitting wrist. Have any of you modified the wrist in any way? I am thinking about stitching in some elastic.
I don't want to take over this thread, but if it needs to start a new one on the same topic then please do so
In my search for gloves I found these, a source inItaly![]()

The color seems to be a little purple but i think it is a good color.
Beware! I took the lining out of these and was Mr. Blueberry hands for 2 days! Great gloves but they will turn your hands blue with the lining out. No big deal but the joke was on me at the post 501st outing dinner. Man, those guys were brutal about it. LOL!
Oh Man, I can imagine. Thanks for brightening my day. It's got to be cold up there in Wisconsin but do you think hand sweat had anything to do with the color transfer?
I think I bought a pair of them too.
Does anyone know if these are back in stock again this year?
Thanks
I have not seen them this year
Nope, my target's all have suede and cloth, no leather except black this year![]()
i checked my target back in mid october and all they had were black as well. i was looking to pick up a second pair for just in case.
None at my Target today.
I might have 1 or 2 extra pairs I'll have to dig around.
That would be incredible if you did thanks. Living in New Zealand it is very hard to track down uncommon items like blue leather gloves.
Thank you for the Tip!
