I use Sombrio forensics (girl version in my case) here is the link to the bloke's ones

absolutely comfy, not too much padding, I used to wear fingerless but doesn't save you from nettles (they normally get me as I go past), and save you from scratches if you do come off, but at the same time you don't get warm in them - I forget I've got mine on.
I have really nice waterproof padded ones for the winter but would rather get back into these as soon as the weather allows.
Regarding size, I'd order a few from somewhere like chain reaction and try them all on, send back the ones you don't like/need. Hands are funny - bear no relation to the relative size of the rest of your body (boys, I didn't mean it like that!
