Pilot Gloves

Forgive me for asking this but my search was coming up blank. Are there vendors currently selling the gloves for the Resistance X-Wing Pilots? Does anyone have any links? I kept stumbling upon Costumebase's gloves and knowing them they are probably not good for approval.

These are the gloves I use.

https://www.amazon.com/X-WING-Resistance-Fighter-Pilot-replica/dp/B01G216RRU/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1506804988&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=X-WING+Resistance+pilot+gloves

I believe they are Costume Bay. They're not bad at all.

The real deal do occasionally pop up on ebay ... seen a few pairs searching for public order gauntlets.

Thanks guys! Right now it's between Costume Base and Wampa Wear. I'll probably go with Wampa Wear just because of higher quality.

I have both Wampa Wear and Costume Base. The Costume Base gloves are fine and would be approved, but the gauntlets are shorter than the ones on the Wampa Wear gloves. They also seem to be a bit tighter. The overall look is pretty much the same, though.

So really, either pair would work, but Wampa Wear are slightly longer and not quite as tight, and they are a better quality overall. But they're also about twice as much as Costume Base. I wear the Wampa Wear gloves with the costume and just leave the Costume Base ones for display.
