We would need to see pictures of the inner robe the gloves need to match the inner robe these gloves may be too red

Keep in mind that leather takes fantastically to dye. Red to Burgundy would not be that difficult to do with suede.

I just got a couple sides of burgundy pigsuede from a local leather wholesaler. Perfect match for my inner layers. :) It looks pretty light in the photo on their site, but the actual stuff is nice and dark. I'll dig up some pictures here soon...
