MOTB gloves found at Target as well as some Raider ones!

Post by ReturningSon »

Well, I bought these MOTB gloves a while back while I was browsing through the glittery red and white jungle that is Target. They screamed MOTB and are felt lined. Not bad for $15. They match (in terms of color) with the Raiders lambskin and are not too bad.

I picked up some Stanley working gloves for my workbench and noticed how similiar they are in terms of construction to the Wells Lamont (elastic sleeve band, gunn cut fingers). For only $11, they make great "close enoughs and with alot of use, the color on them will wear down to softer sheen. Anyway, just thought I should post my pics of my Indy "glove" collection!! :)

Here are Targets MOTB gloves

very nice collection. i figure that since you posted a comment of your MOTB lining to be felt, you do know that the screen used gloves were fur lined.

i did find a pair of these in a high end mens shop.....fur lined, good leather colour, and good quality,........but they were like $160 CDN......which equates to about what, $9.41 USD these days??? :lol:

Similar to what I found in B&Q in the UK..

Not nearly SA but not bad as "close enoughs".

The colour is lighter and the leather is Ok.

Your look to be of a better quality though.

MOTB? Huh? I know I'm tired but I don't recall what this acronym stands for

Thanks

EDIT: oh good lordy... MOTB I got it now. :oops: I just looked at Magnoli's scarf and I think I need that. But my girlfriend will know I have a sickness as just the other day a random woman asked me a target if I would wear the scarf that she was holding up, wondering if because it had little frills if I would wear that... I said No. No way. The only difference from the MOTB was that it's black!!!!! :?
