My mixed pack of 10 contained 4 flesh colored thimbles (not orange) but flesh colored. Come on what
kind of nut would put "any" much less 4 flesh colored thimbles in the mix ? Kind of defeats the
purpose don't you think? Come on guys, they're the same color as a cheap thumb tip.

There are no other types once you use these thimbles in your routines. They fit almost everyone from
small hands to large. Joe has large hands and handles these like silk it is amazing to see. I love
the way they stack and come apart when needed. You will like these. If your thinking about thimble
magic get these you can't go wrong. highly recommended.

Mogar's Thimbles are a must for most of the moves that Mogar teaches in his DVD, Thimble Dexterity.
Other thimbles such as the Vernet are great but too big for Joe's Explosion Move - a core move in
his routines. This may seem a bit small compared to other thimbles but Joe uses them and his hands
are huge! The small size makes them easy to thumb palm - a staple more. The colors are great and
easy to see from a distance.
Two minor complaints. The Mogar thimbles can sometimes
stick together. A hazard in a performance situation so be careful not to stack them tightly as you
execute your moves. The other complaint is that they eventually crack. You can still use them
cracked but if you get into performing thimbles a lot, you'll need to have two sets on hand.

I received this today in the mail and am very disappointed as the thimbles keep flying off my index
fingers during use. I guess I should have ordered the Vernet thimbles instead as the Mogar set (size
11) are just too large for my fingers. I only bought these because they are the one's that Joe Mogar
himself recommended but they are more suited to someone with bigger hands.
I was hesitant upon seeing a previous review that said they received "4 flesh colored thimbles". I
was fortunate enough to receive 4 white thimbles along with the 6 single colors. These are a nice
size especially for someone like me who has small hands. Other thimbles I have tried are always too
large for ALL of my fingers. Fortunately, these all fit snugly -- except for on my pinky, which is
still too small for even these.
I'm not too big of a fan of the "real" thimble look compared to
the sleek cap style of the Vernet, but I do plan to buy another set.
