Took me over a year to get all of them out
Someone at Everlast HQ is laughing over this diabolical plan: "We are going to shove this so far into the glove that they'll go mad trying to pick them out. Seriously I haven't had any trouble getting them out.

It's a problem with most of these attached thumbs. Your thumb ends up right next to your index finger instead of ontop your middle finger where it's more out of the way.
