Padded Leather Gloves Brown

It was a professional transaction. The item matched the photo and description. The gloves were delivered promptly and are brown leather, not black. Other vendors only sell these gloves in black leather that are not a correct color for Viking Era reenactment.

I've tried all of the "padded leather" HEMA gloves, and these are the only ones I've bought twice.

Bought with the intent to use as undergloves for Sparring Gloves Mittens, and for standalone use in SCA rapier. Padding level is good for those purposes, and the gloves look good, but the stitching is coming undone after no more than 30 minutes of us and the material (possible fake leather) is slick, making it difficult to hold onto a bare wood grip.
