I noticed that the sizes are about 2 sizes smaller than normal. I.E. I wear a 40 in regular jeans, and had to get a 44 in these to be comfortable

Held Phantom Gloves? they don't need any break-in. the leather is so damn soft and supple straight out of the package. by far the best gloves i've owned to date.

What he said.

Altho, I kinda wish I didn't get the red/white/blue color scheme...

How are those Puma boots? I'm in the market for new ones, and those Daytona Security boots are too beaucoup.

i like them a lot. fitment is nice, the comfiest boots i've tried on yet. people say they're heavy, be they aren't. trying to keep them clean is the only thing i dislike about them.
