Title: Does anybody else feel like a badass while wearing leather winter gloves
Post by: Internetlad on Wed, 16 November 2011, 18:20:32

The fit, the feel. It's like i'm darth vader or something. I just want to punch and/or choke anything and everything. What is it about leather gloves that plays havoc with your senses?

Is your name Dexter?

Nothing of the sort my good man, now would you mind meeting me by the old abandoned meat packing facility around, oh, 2 A.M.?

Nah, i'm not a badass, In all reality my life is fairly mundane. I don't even get an internal monologue :(

I ordered leather gloves off eBay once, then after arriving realised it was from some gay fetish seller (peachcountyapparel.com) which kinda killed any feeling of badass-ness I might have got from them.  Still, can't fault the gloves themselves!

I'd walk out looking like a Tom of Finland sketch if I ever went into a store like that.

It gets too cold here to feel bad ass since most of the time you can't even feel your ass.

Leather gloves make my hands feel small, so I don't feel badass; I feel womanly, which is much better imo.

I like leather thongs. A thin leather strap across my crack makes me feel  quite macho.

I wear leather gloves every day outdoors, and I don't feel like a bad-ass. I wear them because my hands would get cold without them. Duh.

No ****. It's the gun.

And those look like Nomex gloves, not leather.

If any of my friends wore leather gloves I'd probably ask them when they became such a posh rapist.

My friend accused me of something similar last winter the first day I wore leather gloves.

Years ago during a particularly cold winter, a friend met me and some other friends while wearing a wooly hat, scarf, gloves and one friend commented "you look like a rapist". So we took the mickey out of him for a while referring to his "raping gear". But now most of us still refer to hat, scarf and gloves as raping gear. Which causes some stares when you're out at a cafe or something, forget yourself and blurt out "don't forget your raping gear".

Of course, a rapist would be pretty much the opposite of a bad ass.

No... just when I am wearing my Mechanix gloves... cause that usually means I have an AK or Glock in my hands. :D

I like putting on black leather gloves while staring intently at a stranger.
