Since we're now talking about brush removal and such I was
wondering if anyone knows where to get leather gloves with
looooong cuffs which go almost up to the elbow. My father-in-law
has been looking for some for awhile and hasn't come up with
anything yet. I've located some long goatskin gloves which
they sell for rose pruning and such but I'm not sure they would
be heavy enough. Welding gloves don't have a long enough cuff.
Anyone have any pointers?

Regards,
Drew
