So every now and then you run across that guy, the guy who does everything a little bit better than everybody else, I ran across this guy who makes gloves, he's located in our great state of Texas. I am one of those guys who likes nice tight fitting gloves, I don't like the ones with the plastic over your knuckles, I don't like the fingerless gloves they don't work either for me, so most of the time I use skin tight deer skin gloves, the first time I saw these gloves rooster was wearing them, and I said to myself I have to have those gloves, I did a little bit of digging, they have a small Studio out in the middle of bum fuck Texas. So I decided I would order me a pair of blood red shanks gloves, when they arrived I was definitely not disappointed, I only had to put them on a couple of times and they were already starting to feel pretty good, stitching on these things it's a crazy, these remind me of the old cowboy gloves back in the day, anyway I want to say these are the best gloves I've ever had, and God knows I've tried a bunch, I just like the old school hand stitched look.... these are those gloves!!!

I received mine after a couple months. There nice looking gloves but in reality there not motorcycle gloves. There’s no curve to the palm so you do get some bunching in the palm. I don’t find them super comfortable. I’ll add them to my collection that doesn’t get used.
I’ll agree with that. But I’ll use them just cause they are red leather. I love how leather smells and ages

Plenty comfortable for me after you sweat them out a few times they will conform to your hands. Never experienced any bunching either perhaps yours are too big 🤷🏼♂️……..I have two pairs and they’re all I’ve worn for the last year and love them….
I prefer my bloody shanks, over my dear skin gloves.
I guess me and rooster are the only ones, whose gloves fit like a glove!!! And look badass in the process!!!

Order a pair of Pinto Shanks on 7/7 and finally received them yesterday, 9/16. As with others, any attempts to reach out via email, phone, or social were ignored.
That said, the quality is surely top notch. My problem with them is I suspect I should have ordered a L instead of a M (I was right near the line per the sizing chart). They are ultra tight to put on, my finger tips are right at the tip of the glove, and my knuckles at first finger bend rub on the inside seams.
Poor customer service aside and because of the quality, I'm leaning toward starting this arduous process again and ordering the L. From others that have purchased and are happy with the sizing, how did yours fit comparably to my description above? Trying to get some perspective to validate before I pursue another order.

There was a complaint previously of uncomfortableness due to bunching in the palms, but me thinks that was because they ordered them too large……. Mine were a little tight to start with, but after I sweated them out a few times and got in a few hours wear, they fit perfect now……. Unless yours are just so tight they’re uncomfortable, they will form to your hands in time……
Love mine...

Thanks for that input. Here's a couple more photo's.....first shows how bunched my hand is and the second shows where it's rubbing on the knuckles.
I wore them for several hours last night and albeit they loosened up from what they were initially, but I still have to really force them on.
The inside seems were a bit bothersome at first but now I hardly notice them. Leather is going to have a break in period. and that all depends on the conditions you wear them in and how often you wear them. Remember getting a new baseball glove and you'd put a ball or two in the netting and tie the glove shut around it? basically gotta do the same with these gloves but by wearing them as often as you can so they form to your hand and fingers.
Tight and uncomfortable at first. After a couple weeks on some decent rides in the heat they were a little less stiff and felt better. I even wore them while at work for a couple hours at a time. They feel much better now but they are not perfect yet. But the longer you wear them, stretch them out, heat them up with your body heat, get your natural hand oils worked inside the leather, condition them to your hands and hand movements.....they will be perfect.

If I can be so bold as to make a suggestion....
Keep the M for now. Start the process for the Large. Once you get the large you can decide which fit you better. Sell the size you don't want. I'd bet money someone here will buy them in no time. I'm not saying I will...but Medium is my size.

If you zoom in they say MotoStuka on the thumbs just like the ones dude makes…… Hmmmmmm.
OR.....and bear with me here....the ones Dude is selling are just gloves he gets from China and passes them off as his handmade gloves?? Anyone here actually been to his shop and seen him make these "handmade" gloves?
Same Chinese seller - box of gloves for $125 CDN. I zoomed in on the logo - Demons & Machines - sold in Spain for $190 Euro per pair of gloves. They advertise Made in the USA. GUANTES DEMONS | Demons & Machines
