Revzilla has a closeout sale on these Icon Sub Stealth gloves--I love mine, and they flow air well. 39 bucks is a great price, too.

I like my BMW Airflow II. Almost transparent to air and some protection.
Held Air would be my next choice, but I think they've been discontinued.
Neither one cheap.

The link didn't go right where I wanted. Just click all products after clicking the links and the gloves will appear.

I have a pair of these Held gloves and have been very happy with them. I got them from Revzilla. I have been riding in the hi 80s and lo 90s. They vent well and are comfortable. I have yet to we're out a pair of Held gloves. I would call Revzilla and talk to them.

For warm weather I use these:
I've worn them in temps over 100* and they're still comfortable. Picked them up for $10 at Sears. I have over a half dozen different pairs and these are my favorite.

Oakley makes some pretty good gloves. I like their SI Assault Gloves. They aren't the cheapest but the palms are perforated high quality leather which provides great grip, they have carbon fiber knuckle guards and have a tight mesh back which vents really well. As far as dexterity I'll just say that I used to wear them all the time in Iraq to operate my teams bomb disposal robot.

As another poster mentioned, the BMW "Airflow" gloves are worth checking:

Not cheap, but as others have said, you'll get what you pay for.
