Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

I'm also tiny-handed. But I also have large wrists, so velcro closures (that I barely fasten) are a must on any gloves I wear.
My favorite glove is the Potenza Pave in a XS. They have a fairly lightly padded white leather palm, silver lycra back and black terry cloth thumb. And, they're cheap! I can usually find them at my LBS for a little less than $10. On the one occasion I couldn't find my size at my local shop, I found some online for about $8.
I'm still on the hunt for a full-fingered glove that fits the short length of my stubby fingers without being too tight around the base of said stubby fingers.

I'm loath to buy gloves online at any price unless I know the make and model fit. What I've done in the past for cold rides are glove liners. I like that a solution a lot. Gets cold, put 'em on, warm up, take 'em off, repeat

The gloves I'm replacing might also fill the bill. They are from Giant. I just checked their site, nothing looks the same. Of course when we find something that fits the bill they change everything![]()
Knowing that I might get several of the FoxThey weren't cheap, around $25. But Fox gloves I've bought before have lasted several seasons keeping the gel and support. YMMV.

This is a great post for me. I just got some PI Select Gel bike gloves, and they fit nicely on my first ride, but then they started stretching out and bunching up under my palms.
Trek420, so the Fox Diva Reflex Gels stretch out in the palms? I might have to get a pair. My gloves are annoying the heck of me.
