Help!! Gloves advice?

[Kellys Heroes]

Seeing as its getting colder and colder....
I'm looking for help!

I need a good decent pair of gloves which keep my hands warm but aren't so thick that I can't actually do my jobs...I find very thick riding gloves are great to keep my hands warm and my fingers unfrozen but I have trouble getting through my jobs - any ideas?

Or is the best idea just to have 2 pairs of gloves?
Thanks in advance!

I don't suffer from cold hands but MacWet are all excellent. Thin enough to be able to tack up etc with them on if you need to.

Sealskin gloves? maybe not the warmest, but waterproof, which helps to keep your fingers warm. They do a knitted type one with pimples, which is thin enough to do chores. I also use silk glove liners in coldest weather.

I use thick ski gloves for doing general yard stuff and Mark Todd thermal gloves for the finer work!!!

I love Woof Wear Sport gloves (the ones with the neoprene backs).

I have some leather Mark Todd gloves at the moment. They are very warm and once they are worn in it is easy to tie haynets / faff about with fastening rugs. I take them off to tack up though!

I have gone through every type of glove going, and was handicapped withthem all, found a pair in penneys, aka primark, for 2 euro, that are fingerless, but have a buttoned pouch that swings over and you put your fingers into when needed, they're great,and still intact, heading into 2nd winter. should have bought 10 pairs!1

I like these for riding http://www.equestrianclearance.com/weatherbeeta/_gh_thinsulate_gloves/index.html
- fairly smart and fairly warm. I haven't really done riding in REALLY freezing weather yet so I'll see how they get on.
Like you I don't like bulky gloves and theses aren't too bulky.
They might be a bit too nice for yard jobs though.
