    I actually have large hands, but my fingers are disproportionately short so I know exactly what you're talking about with the floppy fingertips.

    I just bought a pair of the Gore Vulcano gloves and they don't give me floppy fingertips. Maybe these in a small size will work for you?

    Thanks for the glove tips!

    Thanks for replying so quickly! I'll look into all of the gloves you've suggested...........I wonder if it's worthwhile to take a look at good kids' gloves for outdoor sports like skiing and skating? They might have shorter finger pockets than adult gloves, but still give me the width/girth I need? (AND warmth! My fingers seem to freeze in a nanosecond.....)

    I bought those same gloves at REI recently, but haven't had the cause to try them out yet. Though I might get a shot at them in the morning.

    BTW I have short stubby fingers so I know exactly what you are talking about.

    I just bought the Gore Vulcano gloves. My hands are small over all and the x-small fit perfectly. Fortunately the weather has not been cold enough to try them out yet.

    It's the tips of my fingers that get so cold. I hope these gloves work out. I have Specialized full finger gloves which worked great, but still did not do the job for my finger tips.

    Thanks....

    Based on feedback to my question, I've just ordered the Gore Vulcano gloves from TE. While I was at it, I got the SmartWool liner gloves and the Ibex Meru hat. Winter, here I come!...........Thanks again for the suggestions---much appreciated!
