Thank you all for the replies. Some of these look like they might be what I want (and also some good sources of other stuff). FWIW, the Rothco LE gloves are nice. But a little heavier than I wanted, and a bit of a challenge to get on and off (tight elastic wristband). Very high quality, though. Other than those, the Olympias have been the best I have found locally. But I will order several of those mentioned here, and keep an eye out for others. Really appreciate the help.
Fox Creek has some light gloves, I second the TIG welding gloves, they are not expensive. Another idea is black golf gloves, thin and fit like a glove.
If you haven't gotten your gloves yet take a look at the riding gloves sold to horseback riders. They are extremely thin not very expensive and fit right. Can be found at any local tack shop or on line . Mine have expandable material sewn into the sides of each finger adding to the comfort and snug fit. I love mine for summer riding.
