I just picked me up a pair of the Pear Izumi Gel Vent Pro Glove...the same as Darcy's, at my LBS. I had to size up to a medium for them to be comfortable. I usually wear a small. They are a little different because they don't have the velcro closing at the back, but so far, I like them. I too, get numb hands when riding and these gloves do help.
