No, I am not trying to stir something up here first off. Anyway, personally I would never oil a camel PP, but whatever this guy did to the glove I think he did an exceptional job if he was trying to change the color. Maybe it's just my comp but its like a shade lighter than the HOH chocolate brown gloves you can get, I really like the work he did. I would be curious how much oil or cream that took to darken the leather so much.

I don't know that looks dyed to me. It sure looks even but for me it's ruined.

"folding on its own weight" If leather has a memory, this thing might have nightmares.

If I didnt look up what the glove originally was, I would be a little more likely to bid, but I am just impressed the white fur is still white, painters tape?

comeon guys.... we dont want a repeat of a few weeks ago

personally I think the glove looks beautiful. nice chocolate color

perhaps it was one of those "sandstone" colored pro prefs that were limited run about a year ago. didn't really seem to "catch" on (pun intended). i barely got out from under those

I think that is its natural color

That's not the natural color. In the description he says you can scratch the leather to reveal the original camel color.

I like my steaks hand rubbed then cooked at 800 degrees.

your right not natural. check dark stain near logo caused by leaving on finishing hand too long and allowing the heat to bring the pocket grease through. A trick I might have used at one time heheh is to oil the complete glove to make mark show less. no harm to glove but doesn't look the best. will take my beating for thinking natural color.
