: : : I recently visited my local hardware store and asked if they sold
: : : Midwest gloves. To my delight, they did, but did not have model
: : : #850 (from previous posts, the authentic gloves worn by our hero)
: : : in stock. I asked if they could order a pair, but when the
: : : salesperson looked it up in his catalog, the model was 850VL and
: : : was described as having a deer lining. I never read anyone saying
: : : the gloves had a lining and just wanted to know if there was a
: : : model 850 (without the VL), or did Iny's gloves have that lining.

: : : Any input is (as always) greatly appreciated.

: : : Regards and Happy Holidays to all,

: : At my local home dopot i found a 851 but i hav not found a 850 i wonder if they have changed the model number or droped the 850

: The elusive Midwest glove #850;
:
: I believe is one of the more controversial Indy outfit items.
:
: I tried Midwest directly, and all of the local hardware stores & shops-I could not get them.
: The closest I found was the #851.
:
: I agree with Michaelson; that the gloves may have been Wells Lamont's "Grips" Model.
:
: I bought a pair myself for $10-12. They are the right color, unlined, and appear to be the same style.
:
: Plus they are readily available; which would give one more reason to believe
:
: that they were used instead of Midwest.
:
: Anyway; as long as you have something close--I wouldn't sweat it!
:
:
: But if someone has a picture--I wouldn't mind taking a look.
:
: Happy Holidays!

Where can I get a pair of 'Well's Lamont "grips" model'? Or could you direct me to the post that michaelson mentioned these?
