I second the Showa rubber coated cloth gloves. They hold up well and you can get a dozen pairs for the cost of one good pair of leather gloves. Learned about them in one of the previous glove threads on here a couple years ago.
I purchased a dozen of these Wolf Brand, from Amazon. $17. They are thinner and a little cooler in the summer months. During the winter I like to use the Atlas Showa's For working around hot stuff (ie: wood stove or welding) I like Memphis Mustangs
I'd also like to know if anyone has used these for firewood. After I looked them up I recognize the brand (used to be Green Mountain Glove) and style. I've seen entire crews of construction and logging peoples use these.
