For sale on eBay, a replica pair of Apollo A7L pressure gloves. These are meticulously hand-crafted by me to be virtually indistinguishable from the originals. Using the same materials as used in the original gloves creates a unique replica. These are hand-dipped, latex pressure gloves. The gloves have a metal palm restraint with a strap and a velcro adjustment. There is also a "pleather" and Beta Cloth restraint layer. These parts are connected to an aluminum, anodized connector ring, hand turned on a lathe. Dozens of hours are spent at the lathe to make each connector ring. Every effort is made to reproduce the look and feel of the original. |

Dang. Missed out on this again because of time zone issues. Is it possible to commission a pair of these? |

I bought this pair and only have need for one of the gloves. If anyone would like the left hand glove with the blue ring on it for $225 shipped in U S.. It's a little less than I paid per glove. You can see a pic of it on the above link or email me and I can send you pics. They are nice gloves and you feel like an astronaut when you put it on! |

Outstanding! Thanks, and I look forward to the opportunity. (Note that I travel a fair amount and so if I don't reply immediately it's that I'm temporarily offline. But barring something unforeseen, I think you can assume the next set will find a good home immediately.) |
