A couple of months ago, I spent a fruitless 10 or 15 minutes searching through “The wall of gloves” at my local North 40 farm and ranch store. I was disgusted find that ALL of them were made in mainland China. Every stinking pair of them! So I went home and searched online and found some leather work gloves [15] that are made in U.S. of A., from genuine American buffalo hide. These tend to “run large”, so if you normally wear a size Large, then order “Medium.”
