Quality leather Small size.
The leather quality is very good. However these are not made for many men. I have medium sized hands and they barely fit, even considering that leather can stretch some. Stitching could be better. The first one has already broken stitches and I have barely used it. Just letting the buyer be aware.

Awkward and stiff but great quality
I just started needle felting and I’m glad I bought these. These will definitely keep your fingers protected. However I found the finger sleeves extremely tough and stiff. I had to apply a lot of leather conditioner as well as manually “breaking in”

Must Have!
I hadn’t heard of leather thimbles before but it’s an excellent idea and I’ve had nothing but great use out of these!!! I find it really natural to use my thumb to push needles through so having one thimble fitted for each finger was excellent, you can choose whichever one pleases you. I’ve put a lot of pockmarks on mine over time with use, but it hasn’t given up in the almost two years since I bought it, it came with a nice storage bag, and I just generally like it! Very flexible, very nice quality of leather. Big fan of Hide & Drink!

Stellar product
Finding good leather thimbles is difficult these days! Hide and Drink has created a stellar product. You get a variety of sizes/styles- all with a metal piece embedded in the leather at just the right place to help you push that pin or needle through a tough surface. The leather becomes more flexible with use- but a thimble made with thinner leather would be a good addition to the group.

Still trying
These certainly save my fingers but so stiff I am struggling to use while quilting. No way can you use more than one so at this point I have a thimble on one finger and this on another.

Aesthetic, quality, practical
I love these! The aesthic appeal, quality and usefulness are out of the ballpark. They start off a bit stiff when you first get them, but with use soften up.

If you have adult sized hands, don't bother.
They seem to be well made, with good leather. There's a huge however here, though...if you have adult-sized hands, they're too small. I had to work and stretch to get one on my index finger, and never could get one fully seated on my thumbs. These seem to be made for women, or men with womens' hands.

Nice but difficult
It looks nice and is made with good material but its extremely stiff and hard to function with. For the particular use I'm getting out of it, I'm doing hand sewing and embroidery. I've tried working them in, but they still don't give my hands much lead way. I still use them, but typically don't wear them. Just heads up.

Good quality
This product is very well made of good solid leather....the stitching is great. Their stamp on the leather shows theirpride in their work.Unfortunatly had to return because it didn't fit.If i can get a larger size i would buy it in a hurry.
