Try Cycle Gear you can shop on-line or if you're near Knoxville they have a store located there...Not sure where the others locations are but I'd bet Google could tell you.

I bought my new ones at the Harley Store.

All are genuine cow hide and made in China.

Just where does China get all that cow hide.

From Pakistan maybe.

I like the Harley brand, because even wet they do not bleed your fingers black but
 the off brands do.

Have a friend that had a pair of Olympia gloves that would do that when they got wet.  Even when his sweated.  After seeing my nice white hands after a ride, he switched to the same summer gloves I use, Tourmaster Gel Cruiser.  Iirc, Tourmaster makes a version with armored knuckles.

I bought these a couple of years ago, and quite like them.  Teknic Chicane short-cuff.


The current version looks like this, and also comes in all black:

I think they get it from us... I think one of our few big exports is cow hide - we consume
a lot of cows, and I don't think they throw away anything but the "Moo"...

You're lucky on that Al... my black Harley gloves stained my hands black every time I
got wet... now I have "natural" colored elk-skin ropers from riderwearhouse... now when
I get wet, my hands stain a color that makes me look jaundiced  Wink
