well I ordered 2 pair today (at that price I got a spare, and shipping was the same cost anyway) so we’ll see.
thanks for the response and good luck!

Mine shipped already. So we'll see how it goes! Excited to find these, and will be even more so if they're really good. That was literally the last piece to make my LeMond just about perfect.

Yeah, I'm curious about the fit too. Glad it seems like the material is high quality.

Thanks. I know these would be a godsend to people who have been hoping for years that someone would make repro hoods for long-out-of-production groups, if they fit well.

I've spend uncounted hours searching for these danged things, and the best answer Google could find for me is to buy a full set of brifters that has a good set of hoods/bracket covers.
That was NOT a good answer! But you guys here in this thread saved the day!
