Now that the other glove question has been dead for a few days, I have a question primarily for those of you who have long fingers.

Who makes a decent pair of gloves that fit people with long fingers?  Most pairs of gloves I put on give me webbed hands.  It is really annoying.  For reference my middle finger is right at 3.75" long.  I have tried on the original mechanix gloves and they were to short; I have not tried on the fast fits they could be different.  5.11 tac-a are to short while the centurions fit really well but are pretty hot.  I did a archive search and did not see anything on this topic so if I missed anything please forgive me.

You're pretty much going to have to try on pairs and see how they work for you.
Ive went through multiple styles of gloves for different tactical purposes (Protection from blades, Protection from needles, Protection from fire ect. ect.)
Some long, some short.  Some thick, some thin. What they all had in common were the sizes really didnt tell me anything.

For the record, nomex gloves were my favorite as far as comfort and operational capability when it comes to firing a weapon or handleing equipment. However they pretty much have no impact on protecting against puncture or cold weather, as they are pretty much souly designed to be flame resistant.
