His job is driving a school bus, so he would be using them 6-8 hours per day. Ideally he wanted something to take the chill off while driving the bus as well as while outside of it clearing snow and doing his inspections. I don't care if it is a local store or an on-line source, but I was just wondering if somebody could point me in the right direction for where to look for a good quality, durable and warm glove. Thanks a bunch! Martin 1991 Crystal White Base Model 2105 lbs of FUN!!! There is no such thing as fool proof. The best you can hope for is idiot resistant.

More meant for grip on the wheel and minor isolation from heat / cold. I got mine (and Brenda's) at the leather store closest to the Phase 1 mall entrance just south of the Bay on the second floor at WEM (Leather Elite?). They're located way in the back of the store, as the winter gloves are near the entrance. Selection goes down in winter I've found.

Good luck. Expert drivers use their expert judgement to avoid having to use their expert skills

Large selection of gloves. I don't recall seeing sheepskin, but most of there stuff is commercial grade. Darren
