Any good leather wrapped shift knobs other than stock?

As the the title states, I am looking for options for a good leather wrapped shift knob. It has to be the type that screws onto the shifter, as opposed to the Momo-style knobs that are held on with the little tiny screws. Any recommendations?

Thanks, I've tried all the different materials when I had an my first X, and personally like titanium the most out of anything asides from leather. In between my Evo's, I had a BMW with a nice, short, weighted M shift knob that felt great and really spoiled me, so hoping to find something similar if at all possible...

I have there waited anvil shift knob and it is shorter then stock and really helped with the shift. I just got mine in the polished color no texture. The wighted one they make is really nice.

I don't think there are a lot of options out there for your need.
I was trying to find a heavy weight knob with leather cover and I couldn't find any.
IMO, most leather knobs out there are for looks, they aren't designed to make your throw feel better.
Even if you could find ones like that, they will be something light as feather, and probably feel worse than stock shift knob.
I can't live with light knobs so I went with Leathe werks knobs. My current setup weighs over 600g including shifter extension and I love it.

you could probibly buy a wieghted shift knob then pay an upholstry place to wrap it in leather the way you want i would think that would be the only way your going to get what you want.
