Default Riding Gloves

Does anyone know of a nice pair of leather fingerless gloves with out padding on the palms?? I like the feel of the gloves while riding, but with the padding, it makes it very uncomfortable and my hands get sore. Thanks for your advice.

I got mine at a bicycle shop. Very thin leather in the palm, a nylon type material on top, with a velcro strap. Cost like $15 and I've had them about 4-5 yrs. Really lightweight and comfortable.

I prefer the padding and like some wrist support due to bad hands. I like weight lifters gloves myself.

I have these. . .I feel they were well worth the price and very nicely made and durable.

I've actually used mine during heavy woodworking, too, to keep nasty hardwood splinters our of my palms.

Fingerless weightlifting gloves have palm padding.
