Ideas for General Veers Gloves?

[Skaught]

Does anyone have any good ideas on where to find something close to the gloves worn by General Veers? They are short and rather snug looking thin leather from what I can tell.

Thanks.

Scott, I found these on a UK supplies website...

www.silvermans.co.uk

Look fairly close....apart from the popper on the wrist.... then again, can't see if the gloves Veers wears has them or not.

HTH..

well keeping with being very tight to the wrist area...

police search gloves...

Are you sure they are leather? They look almost rubber or latex in the pictures. They are an incredibly snug fit to the wrist as if they can be stretched to fit. The band on the wrist could it be the glove folded back or double backed down on itself?

Cheers Chris.

the gloves in the pictures have wrinkles in them, denoting that they have some loose-ness to them. I would imagine that latex would be pretty snug and fitting like you say, but not having a subtle wrinkling to them like pictured. I believe that they were probably leather, just IMO.

I agree. They definitely look like leather gloves.

I've been looking at these gloves for a Luke ROTJ Costume, and that glove was fairly similar to Imperial Officer's gloves.

From www.leatherglovesonline.com:

If you think the cuff is too long, there are other gloves available from here with a shorter cuff.

Unfortunately I can't vouch for this dealer and I'm uncertain whether the price is reasonable.

Be seeing you,

Those would work well for a number of costumes.
