Custom Canelo Gloves

[gmc_rfc_06]

Got a nice pair of good standard Londsdale training gloves in red and white and decided to make a little project of them with proper colour stripping, layer build up and finishing....still got to add the final touches and sharpen the edges/loose ends, but I'm pleased.

Used my professional leather paints and I'll add finisher/sealer when I'm done to ensure they hold up through bag work, sparring and whatnot.

Wow that's pretty sweet. How long did it take you?

Picked the gloves up on Saturday, all in all its been about 10 hours work and then the time between layers it takes to dry.

Great work, would you mind making a tutorial one day? I love customizing all my gear.

Yeah, no worries.

I'll be doing another pair in the coming weeks and will do a step-by-step photo guide with it. I did this pair completely free hand, on the next pair I'll be a bit more professional and tape the sections off for more refined lines.
