I like the really old style gloves and was having a hard time finding them in my size, really small. Then I went to BIG 5 and found exactly what I wanted. Women's weight lifting gloves, with a mesh back and a padded leather palm. The only thing missing was the terry cloth on the thumb. Easy fix. I took a wash cloth and cut a piece to fit either thumb, sewed them on and VOILA! $8 for the gloves and 20 minutes of sewing. They fit MUCH better then the "trek" ones I bought from the LBS for $15. They are very nice and cool in the heat.
