RubiesRubie's Costume Co - Freddy Krueger's Glove

I was Freddy Krueger for one of my 13 costumes during October I did this year. I was super surprised to receive 2 gloves, which was cool cause the adjustable wrist string broke on the one I used almost immediately. You can adjust the blade sleeves for each finger but it's cheaper plastic so they popped apart a lot. Not recommended for anyone with small hands, such as myself. Only used the glove for photos but had to rig it up myself in order for it to fit and stay on. Otherwise, it looked realistic enough & did the job.

Purchased this to repair a broken blade on my animatronic Freddy.When he's active, he says some clever Freddy line, and moves his gloved hand.I would have liked to have gotten a killer metal reproduction or something like that, but tbh that seems a bit too dangerous, and $9 is hard to beat, even if only for a test fit glove.My goal was to fit this glove over the old glove after I broke off all the blades on original.Didn't quit work out that way.I had to remove the nylon glove from the item I'm reviewing, which was easy, but you probably don't want it to fall apart like I did..Anyway, with a little effort this glove will work fine for my life sized Kruger.Yes it's cheap, yes it will break, but it's $9.. when I was a child I got almost the very same glove from retail for way more than that! I'm thinking it was like $30+ in the 1980s.

I like this very much, about what I was expecting in terms of quality for $8. The plastic parts feel like they'll break off if you're not careful, esp around the finger sizers, and the string around the wrist broke off the first time I wore it. But all the knives are there and the rivets look cool, and it was surprisingly comfortable. When it breaks, I won't feel gypped buying a new one, this was a fun costume to put together.

I wore this for my Halloween costume. It was a lot of fun, but over time it was a stretch on my fingers, since I couldn't fully close them. I was worried about it breaking, since the clasps around my fingers were pretty flimsy and the plastic barely held up when I tightened them. But they moved with my fingers and I made people laugh by dancing with it on. Overall a good buy if you're not worried about quality or durability.

Mwahahahaha! Let your love for the one and only dream demon come to life with this awesome addition to any costume! It came in excellent condition. I am impressed with the speed and the care taken with the merchandise to make sure it didn't bend or break. Basically, the glove is made where you can put the material on first and adjust it to your size, and then you put the knives on top of it and adjust it to your liking. The knives are made of plastic, and they are very bendable so you can't be too rough with them. All in all, it gets the job done so if you don't want to spend too much for your Freddy outfit, I recommend this. See you in your nightmares...

Since the early 80's, Fred Krueger's glove has been viewed as a thing of enchantment by those who enjoyed the Nightmare films. As a boy, I recall simply wanting to touch the glove. Ironically, it truly seemed to be made of the stuff of dreams. It had a mysterious air about it, the sounds it made, the way it made Robert Englund's hand look as he moved about with it.Bottom line; it was fascinating.Recently, I've taken on the task of watching these films all over again with my two oldest boys. One of them is thirteen, the other is ten. We've only completed the second film and I'm being bombarded with questions about the American Horror Icon. "Who was he when he was alive?", "How did he get all burned-up?"... and the best one, "Why did he make that glove?"That's when I decided to purchase one. Of course, I needed something safe. So, I found this one. It's sturdy and it has safe, plastic blades on it. The fingers have adjustments on them to fit different size hands, and even the glove has a drawstring around the wrist.I've already been informed by the ten-year-old as to what I should expect come next Halloween.-H

To my amazement, my 10yr old son wanted to be Freddy for Halloween.THE GLOVE WAS PERFECT. It had a small rope, that could easily be adjusted to fit his wrist, and we had to glue the finger gloved part to the 'blades', so hit little fingers wouldn't slip out. Overall, it was perfect for the price. He was very happy, and his costume looked great!

Pretty crap quality as expected. Removed the flimsy cloth acting as a glove and attached my own glove. Also rhinestoned the plastic bits so it doesn’t look bad anymore.
