Well, I had a pair of Diadora kangaroo leather cleats, lasted me 3 years (bought em large, and wore them till my feet stretched them, and absolutely couldn't fit anymore). The leather never actually wore out on them, I just could find no way, short of taping my feet so they wouldn't grow, to keep using them.

Review?

I saw some of those for sell as well. I am thinking of upgrading anything leather to Kangaroo if it they make it. Besides cheap work gloves of course, I am not going to do yard work with roo gloves.

My soccer cleats are made of roo leather. Much more comfortable than any other leather cleats I've worn. They are holding up pretty nice, too.

I haven't really worn many different types of gloves and when i did, i just got the cheapest pair i could find.

they're nice. they're pretty thin but keep my hands warm and give me pretty good mobility. they're not skin tight.

not sure what brand they are though. they were given to me as a gift so i don't know what they cost either.

Like others have said, my Copas lasted forever, and were super comfortable for a pair of cleats.
