    Did you just tear it, or actually abrade away the leather? If you took away a lot of the material you might be better off just getting a new pair, just so they really are "as good as new" - gloves are too important.

    Alternatively, you can try Kris Drattlo, I dunno her contact information though.

    Ohhhhkay, guess you can't call Kris anymore.

    So then Mr Loops-a-Lot, who does a good job with that now?

    Brian gave me some guy's card, but he didn't know how pricey the guy is. I'd have to look for it at the crib.

    For real? Where'd you get that info? At the MRA meeting in Jan. it was mentioned that she was still doing the leather repair work...

    Yup, got the word on Wednesday. Apparently she doesn't want anything to do with the MRA anymore, at least at this time. I know she has done some work recently (very recently), but is no longer.

    I'm not sure, but I got the idea that it's Andrew that doesn't want her doing it anymore (because it's usually related to the MRA). Who knows - I may be wrong. She may still do it if you're not with the MRA

    Her # is 303-855-6659 (home)

    Best time to call, I think, is mid-morning - she works at a restaurant in the afternoons. If you leave a message, and what I suspect (above) is true, she may not get it.
