I have ridden in SSG's for years. You may even try the men's sizes if the women's are too short in the fingers. They come in winter and summer weight. For winter now that I am living in a colder climate, I "stole" my spring skiing gloves (as well as a couple other creature comforts) out of my ski bag!

By the time I was diagnosed my finger was so hot, swollen and painful that I could barely use that hand. Anyway, the Dr. said that I MUST wear gloves from now on while handling rope or horseback riding to protect that tendon/sheath from aggravation again, or the tendonitis will become a continuous cycle. > > So, I'd love suggestions on good riding gloves. I'm a womens size 8 with long fingers (which makes finding good fitting gloves a pain). I have a pair of winter weight ones already but they aren't a perfect fit so I'm looking for suggestions on both winter weight and also summer weight ones since I've never worn gloves riding during the summer before (boy, the tan line at my wrist is gonna looks weird...) > > Kristi > > > > > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > > Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net. > Information, Policy, Disclaimer: http://www.endurance.net/Ridecamp > Subscribe/Unsubscribe http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/logon.asp > > Ride Long and Ride Safe!! > > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= >
