I shopped for these gloves during the after Christmas sales. I searched the upscale outlet stores and the gloves bought through Overstock were much less than any outlet/sale price. I love the gloves, they are soft with uniform color and stitching detail is what you would expect from Portolano. The only worry I have with writing one of these reviews is the fact I haven't had them for very long. I'm not sure how they will clean up after a season's use nor how durable they are. I'm not out in the pasture with these, but then I've only worn them twice so far.
