Post Driving Gloves

I've looked far and wide for "classic" driving gloves. Porsche Design had some, but they seemed off. Any leather retailer I've gone to didn't either. So my question is:

a) does anyone know how to get Connolly goods here in the US? Perhaps a european website?

b) anyone have any recommendations for leather (preferably brown) driving gloves, preferably string-back, otherwise button (no velcro)?

Thanks,

--Dan

Kevin: thanks. I've seen the deer skin gloves in Rocky Mountain Motorworks and the JC gloves in Griot's garage. Thanks though.

Andy: are they the same ones as available on www.bmwonline.com ?

Anyone know where to get Connolly leather goods?

Dan,
Maybe our M5 friends in the UK or Europe can help with where to buy the Connolly leather gloves.
