Chief check out Fox Creek Leather. www.foxcreekleather.com
Use their sizing chart (don't order the size you might have used in the past). I normally wear a Large, but they said I'm a Medium. The gloves were a little tight when I got them, but after a couple rides they stretched; now they feel like a second skin.

Looking at those gloves, my guess is you are going for warmth and possibly waterproof. I ride a lot in cold and wet, have tried many gloves in the past. Many come with the nylon "rain suits", today, many are leather and waterproof, eliminating the need to add the cover. I am a firm believer now in two gloves for cold and rain, one is an Orina gauntlet, very comfortable down to about 35-40 degrees and completely waterproof on it's own, no cover. The absolute best in my opinion is the HD, cold weather, waterproof leather gauntlet. Very pricey at $90, can be bought online for 20% off. For me they are the absolute best ever, I can keep my hands warm while riding down to at least 10 degrees, could go colder but then the rest of me is getting colder than my hands. I'm not a HD label kind of guy, but their Gore Tex rain suit and their cold weather gauntlets are definitely made to do what they are supposed to for a very long time with a lot of abuse.

If you're looking for warm, waterproof, and tough........
try ski/snowboard gloves.
They're meant to keep your hands warm and dry in much lower and wetter conditions than riding a motorcycle in the rain. (I use Hestra gloves--best I've ever owned)

I have a couple pair from Fox Creek and like them. One pair is actually made by Lee Parks and sold by FC.

+1 on the HD gauntlet gloves. I wouldn't rate them down to 10 degrees but if you have a fairing to block the wind I could see that. They work for me down to about 40 degrees (no fairing or anything to block the wind from my hands). I just installed heated grips to cover the lower temps. I have found them to be waterproof which is the most important to me.
